Component Specifications

Definition
Water inlet/outlet ports are precision-engineered components integrated into water-cooled crucibles to facilitate controlled coolant circulation. These ports manage the entry and exit of cooling water, maintaining optimal thermal regulation during high-temperature metal melting processes. They feature threaded or flanged connections compatible with industrial cooling systems and are designed to withstand thermal cycling, pressure variations, and corrosive environments.
Working Principle
The ports operate on fluid dynamics principles, where the inlet port introduces cool water into the crucible's cooling jacket, absorbing heat from the molten material. The outlet port discharges heated water, completing the thermal exchange cycle. This continuous flow prevents crucible overheating and ensures stable operating temperatures.
Materials
Stainless steel (AISI 316L), brass (C36000), or copper alloys (C12200) with corrosion-resistant coatings; operating temperature range: -20°C to 150°C; pressure rating: 10-15 bar.
Technical Parameters
  • Flow Rate 5-50 L/min
  • Max Pressure 15 bar
  • Port Diameter 1/2" to 2" NPT or BSP threads
  • Connection Type Threaded, flanged, or quick-disconnect
  • Leak Resistance IP67 standard
  • Temperature Range -20°C to 150°C
Standards
ISO 1179, DIN 3852
