Submerged Arc Furnace Automation System (SAF-3)
Project Execution • Services • AMC Support
This project involves the automation, service support, and long-term AMC execution
for Submerged Arc Furnace – SAF-3, a high-capacity furnace used in
ferro-alloy and metallurgical production.
The automation system is designed to ensure stable furnace operation,
precise electrical control, and high process reliability.
The solution provides continuous supervision of critical furnace parameters
such as current, voltage, electrode movement, furnace temperature,
and operational interlocks.
Advanced automation and monitoring reduce operational risks while improving
production consistency and equipment protection.
The control architecture is built using Siemens PLC S7-400
integrated with a SCADA system for centralized monitoring,
alarm handling, trending, and diagnostics.
This high-performance PLC platform ensures fast response, scalability,
and long-term maintainability for continuous furnace operations.
