To provide a baffle plate unit capable of performing a positional adjustment of a baffle plate by detecting the position of a metal strip without receiving an influence of fume, heat or the like from a molten metal.
The baffle plate unit 24 includes: a pair of the baffle plates 22; and position adjusting mechanisms 23 for adjusting positions to the end parts in the width direction of the metal strip of a pair of the baffle plates. The position adjusting mechanisms 23 have a pair of electromagnetic wave sensor units 32 respectively detecting a pair of the positions in the end parts in the width direction of the metal strip 1, and control the positions of the baffle plates 22 by controlling parts 33 based on the detected values. Respective electromagnetic wave sensor units 32 have detecting parts 38 which have antennas emitting electromagnetic waves and receiving the electromagnetic waves reflected at the end parts in the width direction of the metal strips, and body parts 37, wherein the detecting parts 38 are fixed at positions separated by specified lengths from the end parts in the width direction of the metal strip 1.
