SPECTRO XEPOSXEP03 Versatile XRF Spectrometer for Demanding Applications. An expert for many applications. Don’t be fooled by its small size: hidden inside are powerful components delivering higher sensitivity and accuracy for the entire element range from Na-U. Optimum excitation using polarization and secondary targets, an autosampler for up to 12 items, pre-installed application packages and intelligent software modules, make the SPECTRO XEPOS one of the most versatile element analyzer available. SPECTRO XEPOS Excitation resolution of less than 155 eV at Mn K-alpha is The SPECTRO XEPOS uses a 50 Watt end-win-achieved. The high spectral resolution at high dow X-ray tube to excite the samples. The target count rates results in reduced measuring times changer, with up to 8 polarization and secondary and improved measurement accuracy. targets, offers many different excitation conditions ensuring optimum determination of all Sample Presentation elements from Na to U. A shutter improves the Not only powerful analytical components, but stability of the system by enabling the sample to also exact sample presentation is critical for be changed without having to turn off the X-ray exceptional analytical performance.
