X-ray diffractometer Empyrean Alpha 1

for powders

Empyrean Alpha-1 is configured with a unique symmetric Ge monochromator (Johansson type) giving perfect Cu or Co Kα1-only Bragg-Brentano reflection geometry data for structure determination, with unrivaled resolution, excellent peak symmetry, and ultra-low backgrounds. Thanks to the PreFIX concept on the tube housing, users can easily swap between Kα1-only configuration to Kα1,2 in a matter of minutes. Engineered to be the best The Empyrean Alpha-1 is a member of Malvern Panalytical’s family of Empyrean X-ray diffraction systems. In the Alpha-1, a unique symmetric Johansson monochromator provides data with unrivalled resolution, excellent peak symmetry, and ultra-low background - perfect for structural analysis needs. True flexibility for all of your crystallographic needs The key to the Alpha-1’s flexibility is its ingenious use of our PreFIX (Pre-aligned Fast Interchangeable X-ray) technology. This kinematic mounting system is applied to optics, stages and even the tube housing, and allows the diffractometer to be reconfigured in minutes without realignment. In five minutes or less, the highresolution Alpha-1 diffractometer becomes a multipurpose diffraction system ready to tackle a variety of analytical challenges.
