COALSCAN 9500X

Coal mines, terminals and power stations lose value when ash, sulphur, moisture and energy variability are discovered too late. COALSCAN 9500X provides continuous elemental coal analysis on the conveyor, helping operators control blending, preparation, loadout quality and power station fuel consistency using real-time data.

Key Benefits

Maintain consistent coal quality to downstream processes

Reduce reliance on delayed laboratory results

Detect and respond to coal variability early

Enable data driven operational decisions

Support blending and stockpile management strategies

Proven Performance

The COALSCAN 9500X is deployed globally across coal mining, coal handling and power generation operations, delivering reliable performance in demanding environments

Continuous operation in harsh industrial conditions

No wear parts, resulting in low maintenance requirements

Proven performance across a wide range of coal types

Supported by a global service and support network

Technology

COALSCAN 9500X uses Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis (PGNAA) to measure elemental composition across the full conveyed flow of coal. The analyser provides representative online data for coal mining, coal preparation, coal handling, loadout and power generation applications.

Applications

Typical applications within coal and power operations include:

  • Run of mine (ROM) coal monitoring
  • Coal blending and stockpile management
  • Loadout quality control
  • Coal preparation plant monitoring
  • Power station fuel quality monitoring

Role in Process Control

The COALSCAN 9500X operates as part of a broader measurement and control strategy within coal and power operations.

It enables:

  • Feed forward control of downstream coal handling and processing operations
  • Feedback control of blending and stockpile management
  • Continuous monitoring of coal quality and composition
  • Continuous decision support for operators managing coal variability

Unique Capabilities

  • Customised specification for different applications
  • Superior measurement of key coal quality parameters including ash, sulphur and calculated energy content when combined with moisture measurement
  • Custom calibrations developed for specific coal types and operating requirements
  • Proven on steel corded and chlorine containing conveyors
  • Non-contact with conveyor or material
