Cover extraction rings are mostly used only for smaller furnaces. This type of extraction uses a conical ring with extraction slots, which is ceramically cladded on the crucible side. The attachment to the furnace cover takes the form of wedges. Adequate extraction performance is provided when the cover is closed or raised by approx. 200 mm. The emission of smoke cannot however be avoided when the cover is opened for charging.
