Bulk Material Analyzers & Process Controls

ETI brings precision to your process control with our advanced elemental analyzers, ash analyzers, moisture meters, nuclear belt scales, and more. Used in industries like coal, cement, minerals, and wood/biomass fuel, our online analyzers provide real-time data on elemental composition, ash content, moisture content, heating value, and weight of bulk materials. This ensures optimized material composition and consistent product quality.

Trust ETI for reliable and accurate measurements as your materials move through conveyors and piping.

Products

Our product line includes PGNAA units for full elemental analysis, dual-gamma instruments for ash, moisture, heating value, and weight/density, and single-gamma analyzers for weight/density. These online analyzers deliver real-time data, enabling immediate process control decisions based on material measurements.

Additionally, ETI designs and manufactures high-speed sort gates and custom sorting/blending equipment. These devices, controlled by an analyzer or by plant control systems, sort and blend materials using analysis data.

Elemental Analyzer

Full Stream Elemental Analyzer

The Model 730 Elemental Analyzer combines a Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analyzer (PGNAA) and an Ash/Density/Moisture gauge to measure elemental content, moisture, weight, and ash of materials as they are transported on a conveyor.

Ashmeter

Dual-Gamma Ash Analyzer

The Model DGA-410 /DGA-410M Dual-Gamma Ash Analyzer (Ashmeter) is a registered nuclear gauging device for measuring ash content, weight, and optionally, moisture content of bulk materials.

Belt Scale

Nuclear Belt Scale

The Model 500 Nuclear Belt Scale /Density Meter measures the weight of bulk material as it travels on a conveyor belt.



Process Control Analyzer

Slurry Analyzer

The Model 520 Slurry Analyzer is a registered nuclear gauging device for measuring ash and density of coal slurries inside piping.

BTU Meter

BTU Meter

The Model 510 BTU Meter is a registered nuclear gauging device for measuring ash, moisture, heating value, and weight of coal as it travels through a boiler feeder pipe.

Sort Gate

High Speed Sort Gate

The Model 2000 High Speed Sort Gate is a rugged gate assembly for separating materials based on quality. The gate works in conjunction with ETI's Dual-Gamma Analyzer or Process Control Analyzer, and is automatically controlled based on the analyzer measurements taken vs. the set-points controlled by the operator. Manual controls are also supplied.
