Many of experimental works for developing a suitable probe or sensor have widely been made with different methods in great demand for a rapid analysis of specific elements in molten steel.
The author had ever developed Si sensor of which measuring principle was based on the EMF method, and obtained the possible application of same principle to the rapid analysis of manganese in molten steel with foundational experiments.
After the affirmative conclusion on the examination, a new manganese sensor was built into a commercial sublance probe and evaluation tests were made to determine the end point value of manganese in the molten steel of the converter.
It is believed with the test results that this newly developed probes are well applicable to on-line analysis of manganese during the less-slag refining process of the converter.
