Rapid on-site cement elemental analysis

The MiniPal 4 Cement energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometer has been designed specifically to address the analysis requirements of the building materials industry. Extending the company’s MiniPal line, the MiniPal 4 Cement is suitable for on-site quality control during milling, blending and raw feed optimisation. Flexibility, stability and consistent performance ensure the accuracy required to deliver practical benefits even in the hands of inexperienced users.

X-ray fluorescence is established as a valuable analytical technique in the industry and MiniPal 4 Cement provides a robust and cost-effective option for on-site analysis. Users can accurately measure concentrations from 100% down to ppm levels. Sensitive enough to carry out measurements without the need for helium, the instrument’s flexibility coupled with its portability make it suitable for front-line quality control or as a backup system.

The MiniPal 4 Cement delivers reliable and stable on-site performance. Further enhanced long-term stability is achieved by an advanced fundamental-parameter air-pressure correction procedure. The 12-position sample changer allows for reliable, unattended operation. Operator-friendly software guides users through straightforward measurement protocols — delivering expert analysis without the need for expert knowledge.
