Applications
Scanmin’s Fast Neutron Dual Activation Analysis (FNDAA) technology utilises a high energy AmBe 241 Source with an half-life of 432 years, AmBe sources does not require:
Any top ups
Source replacement in the lifetime of the analyser
AmBe sources provide high energy system that allows measurement of two physical reactions to be a stand alone header.
Neutron Inelastic Scatter
Thermal Neutron Capture
Traditional analysers do not measure Neutron Inelastic Scatter. This technology provides additional spectral information to TNC analysis (often called PGNAA) and therefore provide more accurate analysis of the material’s elemental composition.
How Does It Work
The back scatter detector is unaffected by mass variation on the conveyor
Neutron Flux
Neutron flux consistent over 432 years. Calibrations not affected by flux reduction – no calibration due to source updates or replacements.
Source supply and return and licensing
Single license approval and inspection. After 15 years, the source is inspected for wear and if needs be, sent to OEM for x-rays.
