2060 XRF Process Analyzer

X-ray fluorescence is a method to analyze elements in various sample matrices without damaging them, revealing what elements they contain.

But, how does XRF work? When the sample is exposed to high-energy X-rays, it causes the inner electrons of the atoms to move, creating temporary gaps. These unstable atoms quickly fill these voids by capturing outer electrons.

During this process, the excess energy is emitted as fluorescent X-rays with characteristic energy levels unique to each element present in the sample. The 2060 XRF Process Analyzer captures these emitted X-rays and determines the concentration of the specific elements of interest in the sample.

Designed for ease of use, even for those new to the technology, the 2060 XRF Process Analyzer ensures efficient operation and reliable results. By employing our process XRF analyzer, you gain access to accurate compositional data without altering or damaging your materials.

The 2060 XRF Process Analyzer integrates a high-resolution silicon drift detector (SDD) and proven Axon™ Technology. With its special ultra-low-noise electronics, this technology boosts X-ray counts per second (cps), leading to faster and more precise results.

Another notable advantage is its ability to conduct parallel analysis of multiple samples using a single instrument. In the plating industry, the 2060 XRF Process Analyzer can simultaneously analyze multiple components in various plating baths, cutting analysis time and boosting productivity. This streamlined workflow translates to faster results and a quicker ROI for the company.

Online process analyzers play a crucial role in ensuring comprehensive monitoring and control within a process plant, effectively mitigating the risk of overlooking critical issues. Monitoring outliers manually (by benchtop XRF analyzers for example) can be challenging due to factors like environmental changes affecting sample characteristics or delays in sample analysis. However, with the implementation of online analyzers, such as the 2060 XRF Process Analyzer, real-time data is continuously collected directly from the process stream, providing accurate and instantaneous insights into process conditions.

This continuous monitoring not only eliminates the potential for samples to be altered by environmental factors but also enables prompt detection and response to any deviations from the desired parameters. As a result, online process analyzers serve as indispensable tools in maintaining operational efficiency and minimizing the risk of errors or oversights in process control.
