The flexible connections around an induction furnace need their own protection plan. A water-cooled power lead, a separate cooling-water hose and a hydraulic line can run through the same area while performing very different jobs. Their outside diameters may look similar, but their electrical, cooling and mechanical requirements are not interchangeable. Fire sleeve for induction melting provides a...
