The control of casting melts requires representative samples from all stages of the melting process.
Heraeus Electro-Nite foundry samplers are designed to allow safe and easy acquisition as well as accurate and simple evaluation through homogeneous samples.
Compared to classical sampling moulds the filling conditions for HEN samplers are always the same.
Beside samplers, HEN also provides thermal analysis cups for a precise measurement and quality analysis of the melt.
Our range of samplers for steel has been adapted to foundry requirements. Most common is the SaF sampler (sampler for foundries), showing a perfect structure for the analyzing spectrometer. As standard, SaF's diameter is 35 mm, thickness on choice (4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm). Especially for the pouring line, the SaF-DO gives extra good filling at low superheats. It comes in 4, 6 and 12mm thicknesses.
