Upgrading your system to the new generation Courier 5X or 6X slurry on-line analyzer upgrades your previous analyzer to peak performance quickly and efficiently. We also offer several services to ensure a smooth upgrade delivery, installation and commissioning phase.
Increased performance and availability
The upgraded courier systems enable analysis of more samples in a single analyzer. The new Courier 6 X-ray transmission tube technology increases analysis intensity by up to 5 factors, whilst the minimum detection limit is improved by up to 2 factors, and the overall measurement time is reduced to a fifth. The improvements enable higher analysis accuracy with reduced cycle times, resulting in improved process optimization. The new generation Courier analyzers are based on the same industry-leading WDXRF measurement principles as their predecessors. In addition to the WD channels, the new Courier analyzers can also be equipped with ED-channels for measuring additional elements.
We have improved operator functionality with a state-of-the-art touch screen user interface and integrated sampling system control, direct from the analyzer.
Upgrading results in reduced maintenance with added features including digitalization tools, automatic window changer, robust slurry multiplexers, and enhanced cooling system. Outotec guaranteed spare part availability and service agreements can be included to ensure peace of mind knowing that the analyzer will operate with maximum availability.
Evaluation of analytical set-up
Utilizing historical calibration settings, past experience, and future requirements, combined with analyzer management station data, we are able to evaluate the appropriate upgrade scope for your existing Courier analyzer and determine new spectrometer configuration. Through comprehensive inspection and evaluation, we are able to provide an ideal solution based on the specific needs of your operation. Prework also assists in expediting information transfer and startup for the new system. Evaluation can be performed remotely or on-site, and customarily takes 1-2 working days to complete.
Analyzer information transfer
Based on briquette measurements, the new analyzer can be calibrated to match the old, if the x-ray tube anode material remains the same. Transferring the existing data configuration can greatly accelerate the commissioning of your new analyzer system. During the transfer process, the Outotec standard briquette series is measured in both the old and new analyzer, enabling calibration equations to be updated for the new Courier.
Outotec personnel is required on-site to perform the procedure, which takes approximately 1 working day.
