Electrical requirements
At the electronics control cabinet 240 volt or 110V single phase, 16 Amp supply.
Operation
The analyser is designed to take samples anywhere from 300kg to 500kg. Measurement time per sample can be as short as 5 minutes. Our proprietary application combined with our latest, state of the art detectors will supply an accurate elemental analysis of the sample within minutes.
The analyser can work in a range of minerals including Coal, Iron ore, Cement, Copper and many more. The analyser will be able to supply a complete assay without the necessity of sample preparation.
Results reporting
Results can be placed directly into the client’s SCADA without any manipulation of the result. The system is designed with a failsafe mechanism with automated sample loading capability. The analyser has been designed to be safe and will conform to all international radiation standards and requirements.
