What is an X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer?

An x-ray fluorescence spectrometer is an analytical chemistry instrument that determines each element present in a sample, as well as the quantity the elements present when applicable. A unique feature of x-ray fluorescence spectrometers is that the energy-dispersive type can be used non-destructively, making them appropriate for samples that need to be preserved or cannot be altered.

Bruker’s handheld x-ray fluorescence spectrometers offer several key benefits to the novice and advanced user:

• Determine the presence of elements from magnesium to uranium in a variety of sample types including metals, alloys, soil, ore, plastics, pigments, and many more
• Complete elemental analysis of most samples within a matter of seconds
• Handheld, ergonomic, fully portable design
• Near-laboratory accuracy and precision (based on sample type and sample preparation)
• Onboard alloy library for fast, accurate alloy grade identification
• 100% non-destructive analysis does not alter the sample in any way
