The Niton XL5e Handheld XRF Analyser

A powerful, high-end detection model that performs elemental analysis swiftly and accurately. Ergonomically designed for long shifts and Wi-Fi enabled, the Niton XL5e puts high-end detection within reach.

Identify pure metals and alloys, sort scrap, or obtain real-time geochemical data with a compact, 1.3 kg (2.8 lbs) lightweight handheld XRF analyser built for demanding field and manufacturing applications.

The XL5e features a powerful 5W X-ray tube, delivering precise results quickly and shortening measurement time.

As well as metals and alloys, the XL5e measures the elemental composition of geological samples, polluted soils, and plastics.

Niton XL5e is a powerful Handheld XRF analyser that features:

  • Modern software with a color touchscreen and customisable user profiles

  • Micro camera for capturing close-up images of samples (Note: Unlike the XL5 Plus, the XL5e does not feature a macro camera)

  • Advanced analytical performance with a 5W X-ray tube

  • Lightweight (1.3 kg) ergonomic design to reduce operator fatigue

  • Hot-swap battery functionality to prevent downtime

  • Integrated fan for thermal management

  • IP54 certified (splash and dust proof)

  • Internal Wi-Fi and Bluetooth communications for seamless data transfer

  • Password-protected user security

  • Backed by local support, knowledge, and service

Versatile Applications and Modes

Utilise specific modes such as Mining, Soil, Plastics, General Metals, and Light Metal Quick Sort (Scrap) to gather accurate data and maximise overall productivity.

Mining mode enables users to conduct real-time geochemical analysis for mining exploration.

Reduce overheads by implementing the Niton XL5e for non-destructive field inspections for positive material identification (PMI), point-and-shoot sorting at scrap recycling operations, verification of metals in manufacturing, and on-site heavy metal screening of polluted soils.

The Niton XL5 Plus Portable Analyser

NEW Top Range model – best limits of detection in the range, smaller, lighter, even more ergonomic.

Identify pure metals and alloys, detect tramp elements, or obtain geochemical data. with a compact, lightweight handheld XRF analyser built for the most demanding analytical applications.

The XL5 Plus allows the x-ray source and fluorescence detector to be closer to the sample, improving limits of detection and shortening measurement time, especially for light elements.

As well as metals, the XL5 Plus measures the elemental composition of scale, sludge, oil, powders and slurries.

Niton XL5 Plus is a powerful Handheld XRF analyser that features:

  • Vivid navigation; customisable user profiles
  • Micro and macro cameras
  • Advanced analytical performance
  • Lightweight ergonomic design
    Smaller, faster, lighter
  • Segment leading light element performance
  • Customisable for individual applications
  • Accessories built for the industry
  • Backed by local support, knowledge and service
  • Large, installed customer database

Utilise mining mode to gather accurate, real time geochemical data and maximise overall productivity.

Mining mode enables users to determine the concentration of elements from Mg to U in various types of geochemical materials. Reduce overheads by implementing the Niton XL5 Plus for cost effective oil and gas exploration, mineral discovery and mining operations.
