All XRF spectrometers require a source of X-rays, and these are usually provided by an in situ X-ray generator, or, less frequently, by a radioisotope material. A typical X-ray generator passes an electric current through a filament, which causes electrons to be emitted. Using XRF, researchers can achieve rapid material characterization and analysis to ensure product chemistry specifications are met—and our XRF instruments provide the fast and. The X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer is an analytical instrument that employs X-ray technology to perform routine and minimally invasive chemical analyses of various geological materials such as rocks, minerals, sediments, and fluids. Discover our large product portfolio of devices that include numerous benchtop instruments, a handheld device, (partially) automated X-ray measuring solutions as well as special solutions.
