ARL™ OPTIM'X WDXRF Spectrometer

Advanced Technology

• Innovative UCCO technology (Ultra Closely Coupled Optics) for increased intensity, up to 210% higher than conventional geometry
• Unique compact SmartGonio device for sequential analysis
• Optional Multichromators for faster analysis or better performance on selected elements
• Optional OptiQuant package provides “standard-less” analysis for up to 73 elements when specific standards are not available, or when samples can only be obtained in small quantities or as irregular shapes

Main Features

• Unique WDXRF platform with sequential and/or simultaneous capabilities
• 500W equivalent analytical performance from 200W X-ray power
• 200W equivalent analytical performance from 50W X-ray power
• Element coverage from carbon to uranium, depending on configuration
• High precision (short term and long term repeatability) thanks to temperature regulation of

spectrometer and crystals

• Superior spectral resolution from low Z elements to heavy elements (~15 eV at CaKα)
• Stand-alone and autonomous operation without water cooling
• No gas supply required (depending on the configuration)
• Simple and direct sample introduction
• Automatic analysis of batches with sample changer
• Small footprint

Many sample types can be analyzed including conductive or non-conductive solids, liquids, loose powders, pressed pellets, fusion beads, pastes, granules and coatings.

Recommended for

• Analysis of alternative fuels and waste incineration products for the cement industry
• Analysis of sulfur (S) and other elements in petroleum products and lubricants, fully compliant with ASTM, ISO and other industrial WDXRF norms
• Major and minor oxides in raw materials such as limestone, sand, bauxite, ceramics, refractories, slags and sinters
• Major and trace elements and contaminants in food and chemical products
