X-ray spectrometer: XRF |
The novel S8 DRAGON is the first truly simultaneous X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer for precise, high-speed elemental analysis for process control in metal production and foundries on the market. It offers high quantitative precision in combination with elemental flexibility for up-to-date production control, covering almost all elements of the periodic table in a single, rapid measurement.
The S8 DRAGON combines in its new design, proven single element channels with the new Multi-element Channel™. With its unique parallel data acquisition in dual mode, the S8 DRAGON offers enhanced data safety for better cost efficiency due to improved process control. The S8 DRAGON is designed to excite samples with up to 4 kW power, ensuring to achieve the maximum intensity for each element. Due to the compact coupling between X-ray tube anode, sample surface and the X-ray detector, the distances are minimized and the highest possible count rate is attained. Moreover, each important element is measured by a separate channel. These advanced features lead to the best counting statistics and excellent results. - High intensity X-ray tube for optimal excitation
- Precise sample positioning for ground breaking analytical stability
- Best light element performance due to 170 mA and most compact beam path
- Element specific focusing analyzer crystals
