23、ions for remelting and, in some cases, for refining processes of metals through direct resistance heating of a conductive slag. The particular requirements for the safety of persons in or around an electroslag remelting furnace are the object of this standard. The general requirements are included i
24、n IEC 60519-1. Test methods for electroslag remelting furnaces are specified in IEC 60779. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest editio

27、elt station 4 Classification of electroheat equipment according to voltage bands Clause 4 of IEC 60519-1 is applicable except as follows. 4.1 Addition:The voltage band is determined by the line-to-line open-circuit rated supply voltage to the electrode(s).

29、dition:The slag melting furnace and ingot moulds shall be covered by a collecting system to extract fumes from the working area. 6.2 Addition: 6.2.13 The following requirements shall be met to ensure adequate safety in operation. 1) The supply system shall be designed to withstand sudden current flu
30、ctuations occurring at the start of the melting process with dry slag. 2) The circuit-breaker shall be designed for frequent operation. 6.2.14 The following requirements apply to the power circuit.1) This circuit shall include an earthing connection preferably at the base plate, which supports the i
31、ngot. If the installation enables several melting stations to be supplied from the same power supply, each station shall be provided with an earth connection. For the particular case of a single-head multi-station co-axial electroslag remelting furnace, it is preferable to ground the power circuit a
32、t the power supply instead of at the base. In no case shall the operating personnel be exposed to harmful voltages. If the power circuit is multiple-earthed, care shall be taken with the current which flows between the earthing points and through components of the furnace. 2) The circuit of any melt
33、ing station which is not working shall be isolated from the supply but not from earth. 6.4 Addition:6.4.6 Care shall be taken to ensure that the operating personnel are not exposed to electromagnetic fields in excess of national standards. 6.6 Addition:6.6.7 Special precautions shall be taken to ens
34、ure continuance of the cooling of the ingot mould and the ingot base in the event of power failure. 6.6.8 The following indications and measurements shall be provided for important cooling circuits, for example, moulds, base plates, electrode clamps: monitoring of the cooling water flow; measurement
35、 of the cooling water outlet temperature. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Tue May 09 08:15:57 BST 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIEN 60519-8:2005 6 Optimally, measurement of the cooling water inlet temperature shall be applied. The inlet temperature of the cooling water shall not be less than the dew p
36、oint of the environment temperature to avoid moisture condensation on the surface of water-cooled components. The water flow and temperature rise of each cooling circuit shall be monitored separately. Lack of cooling (in important circuits as stated above) shall switch off the furnace power supply.6
37、.6.9 The cooling system shall be designed to meet the following requirements. 1) The supply of cooling water shall be adequate to prevent undue heating of the cooled walls. 2) Cast and/or welded ingot moulds shall be free from porosities, cracks, etc., which could have a detrimental effect on watert
38、ightness and heat transfer. 3) The use of seals likely to come into contact with molten materials shall be prohibited. 7 Isolation and switching The requirements of Clause 7 of IEC 60519-1 apply, except as follows. Addition: 7.3 High-voltage circuit-breaker closing conditions 1) The isolator shall b
39、e in the closed position. 2) The setting of the secondary voltage shall be checked. 3) Correct furnace operating conditions shall be established. NOTE It is desirable that provision be made for an illuminated or other signal indicating that the start-up conditions are satisfied and that the circuit-
40、breaker can be closed. 7.4 Switching-on in power circuit The following conditions shall be satisfied for the power circuit before switching on. a) The melting station change-over switches shall be in the closed position. The station in operation shall be indicated on the control board. b) The electr
41、ode and the ingot mould shall be aligned in the melting position. c) The base plate shall be in the operating position. d) Removable contact-making devices shall be in the closed position; in particular, electrode clamps or contact shoes, either closed or at least with minimum pressure if a hydrauli
42、c or pneumatic system is used, or locked if the system is mechanically operated. The same requirement shall be met by the clamping of the ingot base plate. e) The connections of the cooling circuit, if provided, shall be in working order (flow, pressure and temperature).

44、urrent The requirements of Clause 10 of IEC 60519-1 apply. 11 Equipotential bonding The requirements of Clause 11 of IEC 60519-1 apply. 12 Control circuits and control functions The requirements of Clause 12 of IEC 60519-1 apply, except as follows. Addition: 12.3 Control station The following indica
45、tions and controls shall be grouped in the control room: flow, pressure and temperature indications of mould and base-plate cooling circuits; secondary current and voltage measurement; control of movements likely to occur during melting (furnace on-load); setting of desired operating values; alarms
46、associated with the furnace; emergency stop switch. The control station shall be located so that the furnace is in full view, and, as far as possible, a distance between the control station and the furnace compatible with safety shall be provided. 12.4 Emergency stop switch The emergency stop switch
47、 shall cause automatic raising of the electrode(s) by a distance sufficient to clear the slag; disconnection of the furnace power supply. It shall not cause stopping of cooling water pumps or closure of cooling circuits. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Tue May 09 08:15:57 BST 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (

Addition: 13.6 The control station and the melting power supply shall be completely protected against the liquid metal and slag ejected from the melting area. 13.7
49、The electrical, mechanical and hydraulic equipment as well as the flexible connections of cooling circuits shall be protected against heat radiated direct from the slag and electrodes and convected hot gases. They shall also be protected against heating in excess of admissible limits due to electric and electromagnetic phenomena (resistive or inductive). So as not to impair safety, all metal parts which are subjected to high-intensity magnetic fields and are in contact with oil, shall be made of
