Abstract

Several design concepts were evaluated for on-stream X-ray analysis, chief among which were: (1) sample presentation, (2) X-ray spectrograph and (3) data handling. The sample is presented to the X-ray spectrograph through a vertical cell having a mylar window and a device to measure variations in sample density. The X-ray spectrograph is of fixed-channel, modular design, with a capacity of up to six channels, and is designed for use in industrial environments. The complete spectrograph can be translated in a horizontal plane to position itself and determine the elemental composition in a series of sample cells. The data handling uses digital circuitry to permit normal use of analog readouts or digital data logging systems. Operational data are given for on-stream analysis.
