Abstract (en)

[origin: ES481712A1] The useful life is increased of gas scavenging lances having porous graphite flush heads for non-ferrous metal melts by flowing an inert gas, immediately after scavenging, through the lance in a de-energizing cage which surrounds the graphite parts of the lance while forming a narrow gap therewith until a temperature below the ignition temperature of graphite is obtained.
