Abstract: A device for inductively heating molten metal, which has at least one melting chamber with an inductor, a material supply system, and a discharge chamber for the molten metal, wherein the discharge chamber has a transfer portion which is designed to discharge molten metal to a downstream unit, and the material supply system supplies material to the melting chamber in response to a fill level signal, wherein a fill level measuring apparatus is provided which detects a fill level of the molten metal and actuates the material supply system using the fill level signal when the fill level falls below a predetermined minimum fill level.
