Portable X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Analysers
Fast, Accurate Elemental Analysis Without the Lab
XRF Analysers - Forged for the Mine. Fit for the Line
All industries that trade in elements and minerals have one thing in common – they need fast, accurate testing.
If you can’t test, you can’t know the true potential of a prospective mine, and you can’t know the true value of a piece of metal alloy.
Without a portable XRF analysis solution, you lose efficiency and potential revenue.
Inadequate analysis
means you don’t know the true value of what you’re testing
Lab turnarounds
cost you time in the field which costs you money in the long run
Outdated invasive testing
requires extensive sample preparation and damages the sample
With portable XRF analysers, all those problems are solved.
Accurate analysis
gives you the information about a sample you need
Fast results
mean you get the answers in the field in mere seconds
Non-destructive testing
means you never risk damaging your sample or item
How XRF Technology Works
The X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) process involves the following steps:
One
A solid or a liquid sample is irradiated with high-energy X-rays from a controlled X-ray tube
Two
When an atom is struck with an X-Ray an electron from one of the atom’s inner orbital shells is dislodged
Three
The atom regains stability, filling the vacancy left in the inner orbital shell with an electron from one of the atom’s higher-energy orbital shells
Four
The electron drops to the lower energy state by releasing a unique fluorescent X-Ray which can be used to identify the element that emitted it.
