The CNA Pentos-Cement is the fifth generation of the worlds most advanced on-line elemental analyzer.

The CNA Pentos-Cement is the fifth generation of the world’s most advanced on-line elemental analyzer. Like its predecessors, it is based on the Sodern neutron technology, pulsed fast and thermal neutron activation (PFTNA). The Pentos is the latest release of the CNA and reflects the continuous product improvement efforts of both Sodern and PANalytical:

  • CNA Manager – a new user interface
  • Belt load flexibility
  • Calibration flexibility
  • Improved reliability
  • Improved detector design
  • Improved neutron flux regulation
  • Enhanced maintenance tools

The CNA Pentos provides high-frequency analysis of the bulk of the raw material. The net result is stable and on-target kiln feed which promotes efficiency and stability throughout the rest of the process. The high-frequency control is accomplished without the need for costly sampling equipment and laboratory staffing.

Features of CNA Pentos-Cement

Using pulsed fast thermal neutron activation (PFTNA) analysis, the CNA Pentos cross-belt analyzer is able to quickly determine the chemistry of raw materials which enables high-frequency process control. By 'illuminating' the material with neutrons, the CNA analyzes the bulk of the material on a belt from top to bottom and side to side delivering highly representative data. Pulsed excitation produces high-quality time-resolved gamma-ray spectra from the sample. This provides high precision and accuracy with a drastically improved signal-to-noise ratio.

  • On-off electric neutron source
  • Automated radiation protection system (ARPS)
  • Modular design for minimum downtime during installation
  • Built-in direct link diagnostics program, ensuring optimum operation and uptime
  • Constant neutron flux eliminates expensive and inconvenient periodic on-site calibration
