| type |
X-ray Fluorescense Spectrometer (ED-XRF) |
| Name |
Epsilon 5 |
| |
|
|
 |
| |
The Epsilon 5 is a fully integrated X-ray analysis system, combining a unique energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, with instrument control and analysis software.
|
| |
| System design |
| Featuring a 3-dimensional, polarizing optical geometry, together with a 600W Gd-anode X-ray tube and 100kV generator, up to 15 secondary and polarizing targets and a high-resolution PAN-32 detector, the Epsilon 5 is designed for optimal performance across the periodic table. |
| |
| The Epsilon 5 incorporates new patented* technologies that re-define "state-of-the-art" in energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry with the technique of Polarizing Energy-Dispersive XRF. It provides high-performance analytical solutions for research and development applications, as well as a cost-effective alternative for commercial analytical laboratories. |
| |
| Characterised by highly precise, sub-ppm determinations the Epsilon 5 out-performs its rivals in medium to heavy metals analysis, targeting a wide range of elements, many of environmental significance. |
| |
| Sample Handling |
| A flexible X-Y sample changer with capacity for up to 133 samples is a standard, integrated feature. Measurements can be performed in vacuum or He atmosphere, for solid and liquid samples, respectively. |
| |
| Epsilon 5 Software |
| The power and flexibility of the Epsilon 5 software are directed through a simple wizard that gives the user full control of the instrument calibration and data handling. This provides the functionality and traceability necessary for laboratory and method accreditation, a feature not always available in XRF instrumentation |
|
| Application |
| Epsilon 5 is a high-performance fully integrated energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer. It excels in the analysis of heavy metals and other elements of environmental significance. |
| |
| RoHS, WEEE and ELV (End-of-Life Vehicles) directives restrict the levels of certain elements in a wide range of products and encourage proper end-of-life recycling and disposal. |
| |
| Plastics and polymers : TOXEL is a set of polyethylene standards used in conjunction with Epsilon 5 |
| |
| Standardless Analysis |
| Epsilon 5's Auto Quantify standardless analysis program allows sample materials that lack suitable reference materials for calibration, such as printed wiring boards, to be accurately analyzed. |
| |
| ELV compliance |
| The ELV directive bans lead, cadmium, mercury and hexavalent chromium from new cars and lorries |
