A METHOD OF MEASURING THE METAL BATH TEMPERATURE DURING THE REFINING PROCESS IN A CONVERTER, COMPRISING THE STEPS OF ALIGNING AN OPTICAL PYROMETER WITH A TUYERE HOLE OF THE CONVERTER, FLUID-TIGHTLY ISOLATING SAID TUYERE HOLE FROM BLAST AIR DIRECTED INTO THE CONVERTER SO THAT NO AIR PASSES THERETHROUGH, DIRECTING A CHEMICALLY INERT GAS BLAST INTO SAID TUYERE HOLE AT A PRESSURE SUFFICIENT TO PRE VENT BLAST AIR FROM REACHING THE HOLE AND TO PREVENT THE METAL BOTH FROM FALLING THROUGH THE HOLE ONTO THE PYROMETER, AND SIGHTING THE METAL BATH THROUGH SAID HOLE.
