GS Rapidox II™ Furnace
REDOX Measurement is provided as a service to our customers.
Redox Measurements GS Rapidox II™
For those customers who need this type of observation frequently or do not want to disclose the results, we can supply the equipment/machinery.
We also provide all necessary consumables for smooth operation, for example crucibles or sensors.
GS Rapidox II™ furnace can be used for a variety of applications in the glass industry:
-
Batch redox control for the characterization of “unknown” components, such as recycled cullet and filter dust, an aspect of importance to container glass producers
-
Monitoring of the melting process by analysis of scoop samples taken from the melting tank, e.g. during a color change of a container of float glass furnace
-
Evaluation of the samples taken from the feeder and the final glass products; it is important to obtain a stable forming process and to ensure consistent color quality
