innovation in handheld xrf for metals analysis; oxford instruments x-met8000
DESCRIPTION
The most innovative handheld x-ray fluorescence analyzer for metals analysis is highlighted by Eastern Applied Research. The X-Met8000 Handheld XRF Analyzer is the latest release from Oxford Instruments and it has been designed for positive material identification (alloy analysis) and scrap metal recycling needs. The X-Met8000 is smaller, lighter, and more rugged in design than other portable XRF systems. The system also features new software calibrations and an optimized hardware geometry which results in lower limits of detection for light elements and allow for superior grade separation. Many features that made Oxford Instruments X-Met 7000 series so popular have been brought over to the X-Met8000. Some of those features include the largest interface, longest battery life, and intuitive data management. A true innovation in Handheld XRF is detailed by this presentation and additional information can be requested through Eastern Applied Research - a regional distributor of Oxford Instruments.TRANSCRIPT
Innovation in Handheld XRF: the X-Met8000 for metals analysis
Here it is: X-Met8000
As a distributor of Oxford Instruments, Eastern Applied Research is pleased to introduce the innovative X-Met8000.
This Handheld XRF Analyzer actually improves on the popular X-Met7500
for metals analysis interests.
For Alloy Analysis
This latest evolution in Handheld XRF technology is based on a survey of contacts using both Oxford Instruments analyzers and competitor systems.
Positive Material Identification Scrap Metal Analysis
The X-Met8000 is optimized for all metals analysis needs and excels in light element interests.
The New Standard
The X-Met8000 retains a number of beneficial features that its predecessor provides but offers improvements that make it the markets premier metal analyzer.
Oxford Instruments has set new standards in ergonomics and performance
Ergonomics and Hardware Performance and Software• Smaller• Lighter• More Rugged
• Light Element, Lowest LOD’s• Even Easier Software• Customize for Efficiency
Smaller
Small but (more) powerful
20% smaller than its predecessor
Benefits brought over from the previous version- Still the largest screen on the market (4.3”)- Still the longest battery life (10-12 hrs)
Lighter
Truly portable at only 3.3 lbs (with battery) and a balanced design for ease of use hour after hour
This results in a lighter travel case; only about 15lbs with the common accessories.
Rugged
IP54 Rating: Superior protection against dust and splash water
Optional Shield (at no additional cost)Prevent costly detector damage from testing sharp and irregularly shaped objects
Superior Design:Protects the entire nose, not just the detectorCan still analyze light elementsEasy to replace (and low cost replacements)
Light Elements
The X-Met8000 has been developed with optimized geometry of components;
including a new, large area, Silicon Drift Detector.
What does this add up to?= lower limits of detection (LOD’s) for light elements
Why do lower LOD’s help? = superior grade separation, larger alloy library
Streamlined Software
Customizable Results ScreenSort by the element or concentration levels and display priority elements first
These new features result in faster processing speeds so users can get the information they need
and move to the next measurement spot…
Oxford Instruments has managed toimprove their industry leading software
Simplified Calibration SelectionEliminates scrolling through calibrations and features light element on/off option
For Alloy Analysis
Eastern Applied Research offers three models of Handheld XRF from Oxford Instruments. We can help determine the best option for your metal testing goals.
