Reasons for using Anker Carbo-Mag:
-
Reduced heat on sidewalls and roof (longer
furnace life, reduced refractory cost)
- Improved heat transfer from arc to bath (fast
temperature pick-up, increased to T.P.H.)
- Ability to operate with longer arc (higher power
factors)
- Reduced hydrogen pick-up (cleaner steel)
- High MgO coating on electrodes (reduced electrode
consumption)
- Minimize slagline and bottom erosion (reduced
gunning maintenance)

General Operating Practice
The following practice can be used as a guide line when
starting to use Anker Industries Carbo-Mag 70. The best results
will be obtained when you develop a practice that best fits your
operating needs.
- Inject 4 lbs./ton of Carbo-Mag 70 about 20/25 minutes
after putting power on the start bucket of scrap.
- Inject 3 lbs./ton of Carbo-Mag 70 about 15 to 20 minutes
after charging finish bucket of scrap or prior to pushing
scrap or taking early test.
- If the early Carbon melt-in is below .20 or if the Carbon
is worked below .20, inject an additional 3 lbs./ton of
material.
- During the refine period, inject material as required to
keep the heat on a foam (20 to 30 seconds of injection
will normally be adequate to foam the bath).
Note: Anker Carbo-Mag 70 has very little effect on the Carbon
level of the bath, so the material can be injected at anytime in
the heat cycle, without worrying about excessive Carbon pickup. [Top
