7 Tips for Graphite Electrode Connection

How to ensure the seamless graphite electrode connections? Please check the expert tips as following, 

1.Place a soft protective board below the connecting electrode by using the special lifting plug. Avoid dragging when lifting.

2. To use an electrode which has been delivered without the nipple attached, thoroughly remove any dust around the socket and the nipple of the electrode you wish to connect, and then carefully screw in the nipple.

3. Make sure to thoroughly airblow dust with air from the socket of the electrode you wish to connect.

4. Position the connecting electrode perpendicular to the edge of the other electrode, lower it gently and rotate to connect. When the upper and lower ends are 20mm to 30mm from each other, clean it again with air.

5. When re-clamping the electrodes after connection is completed, avoid clamping between limit marks.

6. Tighten the electrode with the recommended tightening torque.

7. When using a connecting machine, handle in accordance with the instruction manual for the machine.
