XRF spectrometer CTX

fluorescencelaboratoryportable

The portable Counter Top XRF (CTX) is small, light-weight, safety-interlocked, and battery operated. At 7 kilograms in weight, the self-contained CTX is truly portable, and has a small footprint of only 14 cm in width. Up to 48 elements analyzed per calibration. Wide elemental range, from Mg to U. Other innovative features include: Latest graphene window SDD detector for excellent light element sensitivity Patented DetectorShield™ for long term performance and minimal service New powerful X-ray source with precise SharpBeam™ collimator High speed pulse processing electronics Consistent sample presentation with index markings for better precision CTX Benefits at a Glance: Wide application and elemental Range (Mg - U) Detects concentrations from part per million (ppm) to 100% Robust, splash and dust proof stainless steel construction Dual safety interlocked piece of mind Very small footprint: 14 x 25 cm The high-accuracy, rugged design, and portable nature of the CTX make it ideal for use in harsh environments such as on the steelmaking floor. The CTX can be used to analyze the elemental composition of the slag formed during the steelmaking process. The slag's composition, and how it changes over time, is a strong indicator of how efficiently the steelmaking process is running and how pure the resulting steel will be. Compositional analysis of slag via XRF provides often comparable results to conventional lab-based methods without the need to wait. The CTX can be placed near the furnace for the near-real time elemental analysis of slag, allowing for in-process optimization and the consistent production of higher quality steel.
