A powerful tool for the analysis of solid material, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) is commonly used in many analytical labs across the globe, for applications in forensics, metallurgy, environment, polymers, electronics, archaeology, geology and mining.

The newest advancement in X-ray technology has led to the production and development of XRF instruments, which are now readily embraced by researchers and analysts all over the world.

The handheld or portable X-ray fluorescent (XRF) analyzers have the ability to quantify or qualify nearly any element from Uranium to Magnesium, depending on specific instrument configurations. While the handheld XRF analyzers are lightweight and small, the portable benchtop XRF is ideal for quick analysis of small or prepared samples.

The key components of XRF spectrometer are:

  • Sample
  •  Source of X-rays used to irradiate the sample
  • Detection of the emitted fluorescent X-rays

There are two types of XRF spectroscopy —Wavelength Dispersive XRF (WDXRF), and Energy Dispersive XRF (EDXRF).

Spectrometers are used in the chemical and elemental analysis, especially for the analysis of plastics, metals and mineral ores. X-Ray Fluorescence is used by several educational universities for research and development in the department of forensic science, geochemistry, archaeology and others.

If you are looking for handheld spectrometers apt for materials analysis in geology, agriculture and environmental applications driven by efficiency and profit, then handheld XRF spectrometers - S1 Titan from Bruker – are the ideal choice. At the Arablab 2021, the XRF spectrometers will be exhibited at stall 437 in Hall 3 from November 15 to 17 in Dubai.   

The lightweight S1 Titan (1.5 kg including battery) rugged handheld XRF analyzer helps in fast analysis and has exceptional accuracy. Thanks to the latest graphene window SDD detector technology and the superior count rates and resolution, the S1 titan is faster than previous generations and helps in easy analysis of light elements, such as magnesium, aluminum and silicon, without the need for vacuum or helium atmosphere.

Before you choose a spectrometer, know the benefits:

Accuracy: The advanced spectrometer from Dutco Tennant LLC provides easy and accurate data.

Cable free integrated system: If you want a cable free integrated system for your management, then the handheld spectrometers are the perfect choice.

High portability: The feather light weight and rugged design makes the spectrometer highly portable.

Audio voice recorder: The spectrometer also comes with an audio video recorder for each data point measured.

Use of multiple languages: The spectrometers are integrated with several international languages such as Spanish and Chinese apart from English.

Integrated LCD: The LCD display puts an end to the need for a laptop or computer. This also streamlines the workflow.

Don’t worry, at Arablab 2021, which is touted to be one of the biggest trade shows of the Middle East, our experts will be at the stall to guide you with all the latest and advanced handheld spectrometers. Don’t miss your chance to get inspired by technology and innovation.
