Abstract

The tubular rod (7) for sampling, mounted in a duct for the evacuation of fumes for example from a heat treatment or a melting furnace, includes an extractor tube (8) extending in a closed sleeve (9) comprising an inlet (11) and an outlet (12) of cooling fluid, the extractor tube having an end part opening outside the sleeve by means of an opening (10) for sampling fumes and a connecting part (14) extending outside the sleeve for connection to a circuit of analysis including a suction pump. The opening (10) is advantageously directed in counter-current with respect to the direction of circulation (F) of the fumes (11). Application such as for process control in an electrical furnace for the production of steel with injection of oxygenated gas.
