SciAps X-50 Portable XRF Analyzer
SciAps X-50 Portable XRF Analyzer is the world’s lightest, smallest, fastest, high precision family of XRF analyzers. With the newest models under 3 lbs. and lightning fast, they can be used all day long without fatigue.
Optimized handling
X-50 is the original “old school” PiN diode technology X-ray for great basic analysis of transition and heavy metals. The analyzer includes built-in high-resolution camera for photos or video, and a high-strength
polymer mesh to protect the detector between tests, and global connectivity to share results instantly.
The totally re-engineered X-50 now also features new internal circuit board, new housing and metal components, up-to-date software and user interface, and full recalibration.
Standard element package
The X-50 includes the same advanced X-ray tube as
other SciAps X Series models (operating at 40 kV
max.) for testing including Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu,
Zn, Ir, Pt, Au, Pb, Bi, Zr, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Cd, Sn, and
Sb. More elements can be added upon request.
Android and data management
Built on Android OS with the feel of a smartphone and results easily viewed on a vibrant display. Built-in WiFi and USB mean that users can print and email from the X-50 and connect to virtually any information system for real-time data. On-board macro camera allows for photo-documentation of materials tested, and
the Bluetooth label printer provides instant hard copy labels.
