    PROCEDURE SSPL-IMS-XXX-PRD-02

    Rev. 00 Dated: 01.01.2024


    TITLE: Induction Furnace Refractory Relining Page 1 of 2
    Process (20/15 MT Hot Metal)

    1. PURPOSE : This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) outlines the process for relining the refractory
    lining of a 20/15 MT capacity induction furnace used in hot metal production, following the
    Quality Management System (QMS) guidelines.

    2. SCOPE : This SOP applies to all personnel involved in the relining process of the 20/15 MT induction
    furnace, including:

     Refractory technicians
     Maintenance personnel
     Quality control inspectors

    3. MARK MANDATORY PPE USED UNDER OPERATION PROCESS:

    Safety Helmet Safety Goggles Face Shield Safety Gloves Safety Shoe Safety Mask Apron/FR Suit

    4. QMS, OH&S, EMS, ISOLATION CONSIDERATIONS:


    4.1 QMS CONSIDERATION (Linkage with QMS Risk Register
    & Opportunities):
    4.2 OH&S CONSIDERATION (HIRA Doc No. to be linked):
    4.3 EMS CONSIDERATION (Aspect No. to be linked):
    4.4 ISOLATION CONSIDERATIONS

    PROCEDURE:

    Materials and Equipment

     Required Refractory materials (as per furnace specifications) - Include specifications for Silica
    Ramming Mass and Boric Acid

    Silica Ramming Mass:

    o Mostly Silica (SiO2) - at least 98.9%


    o Various particle sizes for different furnace zones (fine for tight packing, coarse for main
    lining)
    o High temperature resistance (over 1600°C)
    o Good shock resistance and low thermal conductivity
    o Requires proper compaction for high density and low moisture content

    Rev. 00 Dated: 01.01.2024
    TITLE: Induction Furnace Refractory Relining Page 2 of 2
    Process (20/15 MT Hot Metal)

    Boric Acid (H3BO3):

    o Binds silica particles for a strong lining (0.2% to 5.0% by weight)


    o Melts and converts to Boric Oxide (B2O3) during heating for binding
    o Water soluble - moisture control is crucial

     Hand and power tools for demolition and installation


     Mixing equipment for refractory mortar (if applicable)
     Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) - including safety glasses, gloves, respirators, and fire retardant
    clothing
     Measuring instruments (tape measures, calipers)
     Inspection tools (borescope, thickness gauge)

    SL. NO. ACTIVITY REFERENCE RESPONSIBILITY


    1 Pre-Relining Activities

     1.1.1 Shutdown and Isolation: Ensure the


    furnace is shut down, isolated from power, and
    cooled to a safe temperature for personnel entry.
     1.1.2 Permit Issuance: Obtain a work permit for
    hot work and confined space entry (if applicable).
     1.1.3 Pre-Relining Inspection: Conduct a
    thorough inspection of the furnace shell, cooling
    system, and electrical components for any signs
    of damage. Document the findings.
     1.1.4 Material Preparation:
    o Verify the received refractory materials
    match the approved specifications and
    quantities.
    o Perform any necessary pre-work on the
    materials as per manufacturer's
    instructions (e.g., drying).
