Our portable Counter Top XRF (CTX) is small, lightweight, safety-interlocked and battery-operated. This BenchTop XRF is ideal for quick analysis of small or prepared samples.
With 7 kilograms in weight, the self-contained CTX is truly portable. It has a small footprint of only 14 cm in width. Up to 48 elements can be analysed per calibration. It also has various range of applications and elements, ranging from Magnesium to Uranium.
Key Benefits:
- 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.
- 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.
- Interactive touchscreen.
- Operation with or without PC.
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 robust CTX can be used to analyse 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.
This innovative CTX can be placed near the furnace for the near-real time elemental analysis of slag, allowing for in-process optimisation and the consistent production of higher quality steel.
