An Energetic Neutral Atoms facility to test and calibrate Neutral Atoms Analyzers has been developed in the Scientific Technical Unit of Fusion at the ENEA Research Center in Frascati (Rome-Italy). In the last years a collaboration with IFSI (Interplanetary Space and Physics Institute, CNR-Rome-Italy) has allowed to use this facility for space sensors and for characterization of crucial instruments elements. The ENA beam is realized with an ion source and a neutralization cell, and allows to test any instrument in the energy range 300eV-110keV with the available masses of Hydrogen, Deuterium or Helium. At the moment, the critical elements of ELENA (Emitted Low Energy Neutral Atoms) instrument proposed for BepiColombo ESA cornerstone mission to Mercury is under development testing. The facility, its potentiality and the instrument characterization progresses are presented.
