Introducing SPECTROCUBE ED-XRF SPECTROMETER FOR FUEL & LUBE OIL ANALYSIS Easy, accurate, reliable analysis at twice the speed Advanced elemental analysis that’s optimized for fuel and lube oil testing SPECTROCUBE Refineries, lubrication oil blending plants, independent testing laboratories, and regulatory agencies worldwide demand fast, easy, accurate, affordable analysis for petroleum refining and petrochemical products. The new SPECTROCUBE benchtop XRF analyzer fulfills all these requirements, and more. For example, users must swiftly verify that gas, diesel, or other fuels meet specified limits for sulfur (S) content. SPECTROCUBE minimizes delays — ensuring the fastest possible turnaround times from sample taking to analysis results. It can analyze a sample in half the time of other spectrometers, with comparable precision! Or with longer measurement intervals, it offers the best detection limits in its class. In lube oil testing, SPECTROCUBE provides exceptional ease of use — even for inexperienced users — using a single simple method for the analysis of various oil types. And it easily analyzes trace elements in used oils. It also furnishes advanced performance for a host of other petrochemical applications. For instance, it efficiently tests crude oils for concentrations of sulfur (S), nickel (Ni), vanadium (V), and iron (Fe). THE NEWEST SPECTROMETER FROM SPECTRO — A GLOBAL LEADER IN ANALYTICAL INSTRUMENTATION. SPECTROCUBE employs improved technologies for energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) elemental measurement. It adapts the performance and reliability that make SPECTRO instruments the benchmarks for X RF and optical emission spectrometry (OES) analysis. SPECTROCUBE ED-XRF ANALYZER FOR REFINING AND PETROCHEMICALS The compact new SPECTROCUBE spectrometer incorporates the latest developments in XRF detector technology, including exceptionally high resolution and count rate. These innovations help make it the ideal benchtop solution for petrochemical applications. UNPARALLELED EXCEPTIONAL SPEED COMPREHENSIVE EASE OF USE & PERFORMANCE COMPLIANCE Intuitive, user-tested XRF Analyzer Pro software SPECTROCUBE provides excellent precision for SPECTROCUBE is designed to meet all presents relevant information on a single screen. a wide range of concentration levels. Users can relevant refining and petrochemical And simplicity is built in. Example: for lube oil choose to simply match other spectrometers’ analysis standards. Its sulfur content analysis, regardless of oil type, only a single testing best detection limits — but get the shortest testing of fuel oils complies with test method is required. So SPECTROCUBE enables a possible measurement times: 2x faster than methods including ISO 13032, ASTM fast, smooth workflow even for minimally trained other analyzers in its class! Or users can elect D7220, ASTM D4294, ISO 20847, and operators. Analyze each sample in three easy to merely equal other instruments’ speed — ISO 8754. And it enables precise steps: 1) Center the prepared sample cup over the and achieve detection limits they can’t reach. analysis of lube oil per ASTM D7751. measurement window on the cabinet floor (or on The analyzer is ideal for high-throughput opera-the optional sample changer). 2) Close the lid. 3) tions.

SPECTROCUBE Exceptional results for the widest range of elements The SPECTROCUBE analyzer meets or beats the lowest detection limits with the best precision in its class. Given the simplicity of its analytical technique, operators at all levels can have the highest confidence in its results. Users also get the advantage of one of the industry’s broadest elemental selections. The analyzer is optimized for testing of element concentrations in the range from sodium (Na) to uranium (U). Its lube oil method, for instance, covers 24 elements. Choose SPECTROCUBE for all your petrochemical analysis needs!
