Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis (PGNAA)


Thermo Scientific™ Omni View software provides the unique and powerful interface for the CB Omni Fusion. This state-of-the-art software processes, displays and archives data while at the same time tracks and monitors the health of the instrument. Omni View is highly configurable and allows users to get the most from their online analysis instrument. What is more, Omni View is capable of running on any number of remote workstations that are on the same network as the main, CB Omni Fusion, operator console.

Reduces energy consumption
Extends refractory life

PGNAA technology is a significant improvement over dual-gamma and other less sophisticated analytical approaches for through-belt ash measurement. It measures major ash constituents independently as well as sulfur, and then sums them to determine total ash. Because of this, it is not coal-specific and is highly reliable in applications where ash mineralogy varies or where there are multiple seams or coal types. The ECA-3 Elemental Crossbelt Analyzer also provides minute-by-minute analyses of sulfur; and, with an integrated moisture meter, can present moisture and BTU/lb values as well.
