Abstract: Coal Analyzer has been developed, capable of measuring the major and minor chemical elements contained in coal. The system utilizes nuclear reactions produced from fast and thermal neutrons, as well as from neutron activation of isotopes with half-lives of seconds or minutes. Characteristic gamma rays detected with BGO detectors are used for the identification of the various chemical elements. We have designed the electrical system and research position of some equipment and the way of their connections. For some redundant components, the electronic system is optimized to improve the accuracy and stability of the system. According to the preliminary performance test, the system has achieved the expected design target.
