Elemental Analyzers for Mining (Coal) and Geology Applications

ELTRA GmbH has over 30 years of experience in the construction of elemental analyzers for the determination of C, S and N, O, H as well as thermogravimetric analyzers. Several instruments have been especially optimized for the analysis of ores, rocks and coal.

Carbon / Hydrogen / Sulfur Analyzer CHS-r/ CHS-580A

The effective calorific value of fuels depends on their respective carbon and especially hydrogen content. When secondary fuels are combusted, for example, a significant amount of water is formed from the hydrogen content, which must then be vaporized through a rotary tube furnace. This procedure significantly reduces the calorific value.

Elemental analysis and the reliable determination of carbon, hydrogen and sulfur content is therefore essential - the CHS-580 with its resistance furnace is the ideal analyzer for this task. For a high throughput of samples the CHS-580A is available with an autoloader for 36 or 130 crucibles.

Carbon / Sulfur Analyzer Elementrac CS-i

The carbon sulfur analyzer CS-i with its induction furnace provides higher temperatures than a resistance furnace. It is used to heat, for example, geological samples, ores and salts to more than 2,000 °C to reliably determine the carbon and sulfur content.

Thermogravimetric Analyzer TGA Thermostep

The conventional method to determine thermogravimetric parameters such as moisture, ash or volatiles by using a muffle furnace and an external balance is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Eltra’s TGA Thermostep features a programmable furnace with integrated balance and measures these parameters in samples like coal, coke or ores fully automatically.
