NM01XL3TUSED

The Thermo Scientific NITON® XL3t-800 is a high-performance, portable X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analyzer designed for rapid and accurate elemental analysis and alloy identification in various applications. It is a flagship model within the NITON XL3t series, known for its speed, accuracy, and ruggedness.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Fast and Accurate Analysis: Provides near-instantaneous qualitative and quantitative analysis of a wide range of elements in various materials, typically within seconds. It offers lab-quality performance in a handheld instrument.  

• Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): XRF analysis is a non-destructive method, leaving the analyzed sample intact.  

• Versatile Applications: Suitable for a broad range of industries and applications, including:

  • Positive Material Identification (PMI): Verifying the grade and composition of metal alloys in manufacturing, fabrication, and in-service inspections. The XL3t 800 series is specifically highlighted for PMI applications.  

  • Scrap Metal Recycling: Rapidly sorting and analyzing scrap metal for accurate valuation and processing.

  • Metal Alloy Analysis: Determining the precise elemental composition of metallic materials.

  • Mining and Exploration: On-site geochemical analysis of ores, soils, and sediments.  

  • Environmental Analysis: Screening for heavy metals in soil and other matrices.  

  • Consumer Goods and RoHS Screening: Detecting restricted substances in electronics and consumer products.  

  • Precious Metals Analysis: Determining the composition and purity of precious metals.

  •  

• Advanced Technology: Features a high-performance thermoelectrically cooled detector and a powerful X-ray tube (typically with a Gold (Au) anode and a maximum voltage of 50 kV). It also incorporates advanced digital signal processing for optimal performance.  

• User-Friendly Interface: Equipped with an integrated, tilting color touchscreen display and customizable menus for easy operation, even by non-technical personnel.  

• Rugged and Lightweight Design: Built to withstand harsh field conditions, it is both lightweight (typically under 3.0 lbs or 1.3 kg) and ergonomically designed for comfortable use.

• Data Management and Connectivity: Offers integrated USB and Bluetooth™ communications for direct data transfer to PCs or networked storage devices. It can store a large number of readings with spectra internally.  

• Optional Features: Depending on the specific configuration, it may include options like an integrated camera for sample imaging, a small spot feature for analyzing small areas, and helium purge for enhanced light element analysis (Mg, Al, Si, P).  

• Compliance: Often complies with various industry standards and regulations relevant to its applications.
