Steel vacuum degasser condition monitoring
VD/RH vacuum degassers: vacuum pumps, seals, drives — SDT, Artesis, Bently. KEG TRK.
Steel vacuum degassing
VD/RH treatment is a quality bottleneck. A vacuum-circuit fault scrubs heat timing and steel specs.
Critical assets
Vacuum pumps and seals
Lost vacuum from pump wear or seal leak shows up in vibration/ultrasound and drive current. Artesis e-MCM catches overload without sensors in the hot zone.
Drives and valves
Agitators and valves are checked with SDT340 for early bearing faults and leaks.
See ladles and continuous casters.
