Niton DXL XRF Analyzers
When you achieve accuracy and reliability in an elegant instrument designed for a retail environment, the result is the Niton DXL precious metal analyzer. You get cost-effective, high-speed performance, push-of-the-button simplicity, and the cutting-edge technology you’ve come to expect from industry-leading Thermo Scientific portable XRF analyzers.
Description
Laboratory-quality analysis with the push of a button
Throughout the precious metal life cycle – from refining to recycling – the goals are always to ensure quality, control costs, and achieve accurate purity analysis. With the high price of gold and other precious metals, even a small variation in composition accuracy can be costly.
Designed specifically for countertop use in retail environments, yet portable and rugged enough for use in remote testing locations, the Niton DXL X-ray fluorescence (XRF) precious metal analyzer delivers fast, reliable results—and unlike more traditional testing methods, it is completely nondestructive.
These analyzers provide you with the ideal method to test the purity and chemistry of all precious metals, with proven simplicity, performance, features, and portability. And Thermo Scientific Au/gold Detection & Identification Technology (AuDIT™) provides instant detection of gold plating with the simple push of a button.
The Niton DXL analyzer’s compact design and AC or battery-powered operation allow easy movement within the shop or to remote locations. It’s your personal field laboratory for dependable elemental analysis that delivers a real competitive edge.
Niton DXL precious metal analyzers provide you with many distinct advantages:
• Easier, faster, and more accurate analysis than nitric acid test methods
• Faster and more comprehensive analysis than fire assay, with comparable accuracy
• Simultaneous analysis of all precious metals, as well as many other common alloying elements
