XRF spectrometer M4 TORNADO

X-ray fluorescencelaboratorymeasurement

The M4 TORNADO is the tool of choice for sample characterization using small-spot micro X-ray fluorescence. Its measurements give information about composition and element distribution, even from below the surface. Bruker's micro-XRF spectrometer is optimized for high-speed analyses of points, lines and 2D area scans (element mapping) of any kind of sample; be it organic, inorganic or liquid. The primary X-ray excitation uses a polycapillary lens offering small spot sizes and high X-ray intensity. The M4 TORNADO is configurable with a variety of Bruker XFlash® silicon drift detectors (SDD), offering high throughput without compromising energy resolution. One of the outstanding configuration options of the M4 TORNADO is the additional X-ray tube, which offers a different target material and a collimator changer for extended analytical capabilities. Further state-of-the-art configuration options: He-flush to increase light element performance while maintaining atmospheric pressure in the chamber A quick-exchange stage and a geo-sample holder packaged for thin sections and drill cores XMethod software for standard-supported and fully standard-based quantification as well as layer thickness calculation AMICS software for automated mineral analysis Decrease measurement times. Optimized X-ray excitation path, high-throughput detectors, "on-the-fly" mapping with pixel times down to 1 ms. Measure samples up to 7kg. Large vacuum chamber, freely adjustable, constant vacuum down to 2 mbar, automatic helium or nitrogen flush to protect your samples. Map an area of up to 190 x 160 mm².
