In-field Element Analysis
Shortest Time to Result
The S2 PICOFOX is a transportable TXRF spectrometer for ultra-trace element analysis. Due to its complete independence of any gas or cooling medium, the analyzer can be used not only in the laboratory but also for on-site analyses in the field.
The S2 PICOFOX working principle is based on total reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF) analysis. The use of monochromatic radiation and total reflection optics leads to the following benefits of the S2 PICOFOX:
Most compact spectrometer

When detecting samples at ultra-low ppb limits contamination avoidance is of the highest priority – when working with a pure sample the key to this is excellent sample preparation.
Bruker provides a range of accessories alongside their S2 PICOFOX and S4 T-STAR systems.
These include a T-BOX to help achieve contamination-free and accurate sample pipetting and the T-DRY for the vacuum desiccation of samples; with both being designed to help users avoid making any contact with the sample carrier.
Following the collection of measurements, the sample disks can be efficiently and effectively cleaned for later use using Bruker’s chemically resistant washing cassette before clean storage in the T-BOX.
