Nozzle for injecting gas containing oxygen into a pig iron device having an injector insertion pipe

A nozzle for injecting oxygen-containing gas into a pig iron production unit, comprising at least one gas channel, wherein

• an injector insert pipe, which can be inserted into the gas channel of the nozzle in exchangeable fashion, is arranged in the gas channel of the nozzle in such a way that an interspace which surrounds the injector insert pipe is present over the entire length of the injector insert pipe between a wall of the gas channel and an outer wall of the injector insert pipe,
• the injector insert pipe is provided with spacers which support said pipe, when it has been inserted, on the wall of the gas channel,
• the injector insert pipe is produced from refractory material,
• the injector insert pipe extends at least as far as an end face of the nozzle which contains a mouth of the gas channel,
• a space surrounded by the injector insert pipe is connected to a feed line for oxygen-containing gas, and wherein
• an interspace between the wall of the gas channel and the outer wall of the injector insert pipe is connected to a supply line for protective gas;
• wherein the injector insert pipe extends beyond the end face of the nozzle which contains the mouth of the gas channel.
