X-ray fluorescence

About X-ray fluorescence

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzers are an ideal analytical solution. They are capable of simple element identification and quantification up to more sophisticated analysis. They are easy-to-operate and safe instruments without the need for additional chemicals or operating gasses. Considerable savings in time and cost are two of the many benefits XRF can bring, compared to alternative analytical techniques.

XRF allows screening and quantification for a wide variety of applications and for many types of samples. With little to no sample preparation, bulk samples can be quantified, analyzing elements from sodium to americium across the periodic table. The XRF spectrometers are available with advanced and highly specialized software. This maximizes the effectiveness of the analysis that is performed. And, since XRF is a non-destructive technique, the sample can also be measured subsequently by other analytical techniques, if required.

Benchtop XRF analyzers can handle a large variety of sample types, weighing a few 100 milligrams, to larger bulk samples: solids, pressed powders, loose powders, liquids, fused beads, slurries, granules, films and coatings. Also large and irregularly shaped objects with maximum dimensions of 15 x 12 x 10 cm (W x D x H) can be analyzed. They can also be calibrated using reference materials that match the composition of the routine samples. These dedicated calibrations result in accurate data with high precision. Benchtop XRF analyzers can be (pre-)calibrated for a wide variety of industry applications. No need to worry about method setup or acquiring the right set of reference materials.
