SPECIAL OFFER: $20,999.95

Thermo Scientific Niton XL2-980 Plus handheld XRF analyzer brings fast metals and alloy analysis to the field, featuring the General Metals option, SDD detection, 8 mm collimation, and point-and-shoot touchscreen operation.

Detailed Overview

Handheld XRF Material Analysis for Metals and Alloy Verification

The Thermo Scientific Niton XL2-980 Plus handheld XRF analyzer helps address material mix-ups, unknown alloy grades, and field sorting decisions when lab confirmation is not practical. Portable X-ray fluorescence measurement brings elemental analysis directly to metals, alloys, and material verification tasks. XRF analysis supports fast alloy identification, tramp element detection, and point-and-shoot workflows in manufacturing, quality assurance, and scrap sorting environments.

 

XRF Measurement with Dynamic Tube and Detector Response

  • A 2W Ag anode X-ray tube excites the sample surface, generating elemental fluorescence for analysis.
  • Dynamically adjustable current changes output during analysis to support sensitivity across varied material compositions.
  • A silicon drift detector receives XRF signals and enables elemental response from Mg to U.
  • Smart Fundamental Parameter calibration corrects for sample matrix effects during quantitative analysis.
  • Integrated CCD micro camera positioning helps locate and record measurement positions before analysis.

General Metals Option and Elemental Analysis Capabilities

  • General Metals option supports metals and alloy analysis workflows.
  • Analytical range covers Mg to U.
  • 8 mm collimation defines the measurement spot size.
  • Default alloy libraries are based on SAE, AISI, ASTM, and AA standards.
  • Internal storage supports approximately 10,000 readings with spectra.

Metals Verification and Material Sorting Applications

  • Metals and alloy verification for manufacturing workflows.
  • Positive material identification quality assurance.
  • Scrap metal sorting using point-and-shoot handheld XRF analysis.
