“ TEHRAN, Iran’s two newly build centrifuges both belong to one generation designed after IR-2 and IR-3 centrifuges, an official said Saturday.

Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced on Thursday on the occasion of the 4th national day of nuclear technology that the country has tested two types of new high-capacity centrifuges.

The Head of Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), Gholam Reza Aghazadeh said that the centrifuges were 5 to 6 times faster than the older ones. He gave no further details.

He also said around 7000 centrifuges have been installed in Natanz facilities.

Iran has managed to build a new generation of centrifuges more advanced than IR-2 and IR-3 in two types and with different functions, the official who required anonymity told ISNA.

Also another official at Isfahan nuclear site told ISNA that a number of the newly tested centrifuges have been activated in Natanz.

The International Atomic Energy Agency is predicted to have a report in this regard.”
