  • Each cooling zone is individually associated with valves for adjusting the volume flow or the pressure of the cooling water in the respective cooling zone.
  • the pump device is assigned a pump control loop for regulating the pressure of the pumped by the pump cooling water.
  • strand guiding devices in which the pairs of rollers typically used for guiding the strand in so-called segments are summarized as structural units.
  • the segments may, but need not, have variable pitch adjustment actuators; see for example DE 10 2008 009 136 A1 , From the German publication DE 10 2008 004 911 A1 the use of two-fluid nozzles within secondary cooling devices is known.
  • the dual-fluid nozzles advantageously allow a variable adjustment of the proportions of two different cooling media used, for example air and cooling water.
  • the German Offenlegungsschrift DE 101 04 348 A1 discloses a strand guide segment with a roller carrier for guiding the casting strand. Also arranged on the roller carrier is a series of spray nozzles through which coolant is sprayed onto the strand.
