A DEVICE FOR THE COLLECTION OF GASES AND FUMES EMITTED BY A CONVERTER

摘要

In an installation for the collection of gases emitted by a tiltable converter which includes an enclosure for the converter connected to a suction duct, a damper for controlling the draught in the suction duct is provided, the damper being controlled in dependence on the difference in pressures inside and outside the enclosure and the orientation of the axis of the converter so that the pressure differential is maintained at one level when the converter is vertical and at another level when the converter is non-vertical.
