Abstract

A gas washing device for supplying gas through a metallurgical vessel to molten metal therein includes a gas permeable sink positioned to extend through a wall of the metallurgical vessel. The sink has an inner end to be exposed to the molten metal and subject to wear thereby and an outer end. A gas inlet supplies an operational flow of gas from a gas supply to the outer end of the sink. A device is operatively mounted with respect to the sink and is responsive to a temperature rise indicative of a predetermined extent of wear of the inner end of the sink by the molten metal, to reduce the flow of the gas to a reduced flow less than the operational flow upon the inner end of the sink being worn or eroded to the predetermined extent. A detector detects or measures the reduced flow of gas.
