Operation of the xSORT is simple and intuitive: The handheld XRF uses a universal calibration so that the onsite operator is not required to make any changes to any settings. The instrument requires only 10 seconds to differentiate between aluminum and magnesium alloys. In addition, the SDD detector enables the identification and determination of the light elements: Al, Mg, Si and P can be measured in an air atmosphere without the need for helium or a vacuum system. This allows the Spectro xSORT to determine 41 elements, between magnesium and thorium, in a single measuring cycle of two seconds. A low power X-ray tube with 40 kV serves as the excitation source. This processes signals approximately ten times faster than the silicon pin detectors used in conventional handheld XRF instruments. As the first handheld XRF instrument from Spectro, the xSORT closes the last gap in our product portfolio and completes the range of mobile metal analysers.âĪ specially developed silicon drift detector (SDD) forms the heart of the Spectro xSORT. âThe xSORT analyses metal alloys much faster than comparable products from the competition. All of our experience has flowed into the development of the Spectro xSORT,â explains Marcus Freit, Product Manager for the mobile metal analysers. ÂSpectro has been a market leading supplier of mobile metal analysers for the last 30 years and technology leader in the laboratory ED-XRF analyser market for the last 15. The Spectro xSORT has been designed for the petro-chemical industries, where regular control of pipelines and plant infrastructure is a must. The light (1.7 Kg, 3.7 lbs.) and super-fast metal analyser measures all of the elements, non-destructively, in a metal alloy in only two seconds. A focus on long-term reliability is evident in every facet of their design.Spectro Analytical Instruments (Germany) presents the new Spectro xSORT handheld XRF spectrometer. SPECTRO xSORT models are optimized for fatigue-free, on-site measurements. They deliver laboratory-quality results in a matter of seconds. SPECTRO xSORT spectrometers are used in the plant, on the jobsite, or in the most challenging field location. At a range of affordable prices, SPECTRO xSORT spectrometers are leaders in their class for a broad spectrum of applications.

Simple, user-friendly displays and efficient ergonomics make these instruments extremely easy to use. They offer metals or nonmetals identification in seconds, with innovative technologies and designs that provide repeatable, laboratory-quality results. These energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence devices are recognized for ruggedness and reliability on the job. The SPECTRO xSORT family of handheld ED-XRF spectrometers supplies elemental testing and spectrochemical analysis of myriad materials in widely varying conditions. Video-camera for exact sample positioning and documentation of measured spot. Instrument usually ready to measure within 10 seconds after switching on, offers simultaneous result storage in various formats at different destinations (USB drive, network, or printer)Ĭompliance testing and quick screening of non-metallic samples.
