Suitable design and material selection

Make sure, that the glass furnace design is reasonable, meets process requirements, and select suitable fireproof materials. Refractory materials must have good heat resistance, resistance to chemical corrosion and thermal shock, and also meet the requirements of the working environment inside the furnace.

Correct installation and maintenance

When installing, follow the manufacturer's recommendations and technical specifications. Carry out regular maintenance and inspection, promptly repair or replace damaged refractory materials.

Prevent erosion and environmental pollution

Control the chemical composition of fuel and raw materials, to avoid accumulation and corrosion of harmful substances. Regularly clean the inside of the oven of accumulated dirt and residues..

Precise operation of glass furnaces
