Applications
The Thermo Scientific Niton XL2 Handheld XRF Analyzer is widely used in jewelry testing, precious metal verification, mining, metal recycling, quality inspection, manufacturing, and industrial material analysis. It helps businesses verify metal purity, identify alloy compositions, detect gold plating, and ensure accurate valuation of precious materials.
Working Principle
The Niton XL2 uses X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) technology to analyze material composition. When X-rays are directed onto a sample surface, the atoms emit characteristic fluorescent energy. The Silicon Drift Detector captures these signals and identifies the elements present in the material, providing fast and accurate elemental analysis without damaging the sample.
