The ARL QuantX provides the highest performance-price ratio of all other Energy Dispersive XRF (EDXRF) instruments on the market and ensures unmatched sensitivity and indispensable flexibility to satisfy, for example, RoHS and WEEE regulations.
The ARL QuantX has been primarily developed to satisfy the analytical needs of laboratories dealing with unpredictable samples, government and military facilities, environmental laboratories monitoring urban and industrial air quality, and steel mills analyzing slags.
The ARL QuantX is ideal for non-destructive analysis with sensitivity at single-digit ppm levels for most elements and sample types.
Equipped with exclusive DPP technology, the ARL QuantX significantly improves throughput compared to conventional analog pulse processors.
The electrically-cooled Si (Li) detector is now colder than ever and provides complete elemental coverage with no loss in efficiency that plagues the thinner crystals of SDD and PIN detectors.
The software is designed for accuracy and flexibility with a choice of five algorithms plus comprehensive bulk and thin-film FP, thereby enabling unlimited standardless and semi-standardless capability.
The ethernet technology at the core of the ARL QuantX allows communication with any computer, desktop or laptop, and enables support for Windows XP and beyond.
High-power performance is achieved without traditional nuisance of water cooling, liquid nitrogen or expensive regular maintenance.
Variable beam collimation allows analysis of smaller samples (down to 1mm), while the biggest sample chamber available with any XRF system can accommodate various sample handlers including a 10/20-position auto-sampler and special stages.
