Abstract
An openable induction coil is provided. An electromagnetically shielded inductor assembly can be formed from the openable induction coil and an electromagnetically shielded enclosure into which the coil can be inserted. The induction coil can be pivoted open while in the shielding enclosure without complete disassembly of the enclosure. In some examples of the invention, a dynamic “curtain” of a gas is injected through spaces between opening portions of the coil and adjacent sections of the shielding enclosure, and into the interior of the induction furnace formed by the openable induction coil when it is in the closed position.
