Our team of experts provide you with an on-spot optimisation service that helps you, on site or remotely, to gain insights and improve the performance of your arc furnace process (Regulation, Tap to Tap, Vibration, Graphite Electrode Consumption…)
State of the Art Device
​
The ARC instrument is able to take electrical parameter measurements at an ultra-high rate, (Up to 18'000 Hz) and it is able to be connected securely to PLC
​
Safety first
​
In addition, it can be remotely controlled through its own broadcasted WiFi, so there is no need to enter the transformer room, and it can be connected safely while the furnace is arcing, i.e. in power on mode
​
Easy setup, No expert needed on site
​
The Device is sent to Arc furnace user
The Device is connected very simply and safely to the arc furnace by any maintenance technician like a USB plug and play

• Carbon Injection On-Off
• Oxygen, Natural Gas Total Flow
• Cooling Water Inlet, Outlet Temp (Shell, Roof)
• Electrical Positions and Speed
• Regulator Output Signals
• Temperature Measurement Time and Deg
Software
Electrical measurements (Current, Voltage, Active Power,
Reactive Power…) are controlled through the web interface as well as through the control module
​
Electrical parameters can be visualised and analysed live or stored for later analysis
