STP / Siphon Tube Preheater
A safe and efficient system to preheat siphon tubes
How it works
Siphon tubes are used to transfer liquid metal from a ladle to a furnace. The siphons, after they have been cleaned and before they are placed in the furnace, need to be preheated, which could be done using the STP / Siphon Tube Preheater.
The preheater is provided with a heating box and a blower that recirculates heated air in a closed circuit all along the siphon.
