The refractory lining is supported in the tube bundle by brackets, which are arranged one on top of another and are welded to webs tube-web-tube welding of the tube bundle. The lower bracket at the cooling tube bundle and the horizontal tube wall are protected against clogging with slag by a refractory mass with a drip nose. Expansion joints are provided between the shaped brick segments under the brackets, whereas ring-shaped fiberboard segments are inserted above the claw.
