Abstract

A method for analyzing a sample of a steel melt taken from a metallurgical vessel includes taking a sample in a measuring probe, inserting the measuring probe into a holder, and severing the measuring probe at a position of the measuring probe at which the sample is held for producing a measuring probe stub with a severed sample part. The measuring probe stub with the severed sample part is then positioned at an analyzer for analysis. The measuring probe also includes a region for holding slag from the steel melt in the metallurgical vessel.
