SciAps X50 XRF Analyzer

SciAps X50 XRF Analyzer

SciAps X-50 for Precious Metals.
The totally reengineered X-50 is the lowest priced XRF on the market and still best-in-class for analytical performance and speed, with the same accuracy and throughput as SciAps premium models.
Need optimal performance on precious metals? SciAps powerful, miniaturized X-ray tube combined with highly advanced internal geometry yields fast, precise results, delivering in real time the Au, Ag, Pt and Pd concentrations. Valuable metals are now even more profitable for the precious metals industry.

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.
