ElvaX Pro

X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer

ElvaX Pro is the next-generation benchtop X-ray fluorescence analyzer. It offers a new level of analysis accuracy, speed and detection limits for a wide range of elements from Na(11) to U(92) due to the new 60kV, 1000 uAmp X-ray tube and the ultra large area Fast SDD detector. Powerful hardware combined with unique software algorithms make ElvaX Pro a multipurpose lab instrument for elemental analysis of various materials including solids, powders, liquids etc.

Features

World’s fastest XRF analyzer (throughput above 500 000 cps) – highest accuracy and excellent precision within the shortest measurement time.
60 kV X-ray tube voltage allows to analyze rare earth elements using K-series up to Er and consistently improves sensitivity to the high-energy elements from Pd (Z=46) to Ba (Z=56).
Up to 1000 μA X-ray tube current improves accuracy and detection limits for light elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S) and allows to use small-size collimators (<1mm) for small spot analysis
Motorized collimator changer for small spot analysis of jewelry, welds etc.
Helium purge feature improves sensitivity to light elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S) several times
16-position automatic sample changer increases the productivity of your lab
Sample spinner for analysis of inhomogeneous samples
Excellent calibration stability, compensation of ambient temperature and pressure influence
High-resolution CCD camera for precise sample positioning
