Elva X ProSpector

The latest portable and handheld Energy DIspersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometer for elemental analysis is designed to be intuitive and user friendly.

Elvatech is proud to introduce The ElvaX ProSpector, the latest XRF system to join our family of portable, Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometer systems. Like all Elvatech products, this portable, handheld EDXRF elemental analysis system is designed to be intuitive and user friendly.
The system utilizes a 7.2 Vdc Li-ion battery.
Under normal use, it has an operating time of 8 hours before charging is required. The ElvaX ProSpector operates at a high voltage of 40 kV but can be set for up to 50 kV, and has a detectable range of Cl to U. The light element option has a detectable range from Mg to U. The ElvaX ProSpector operates under control of the HP iPAQ PDA with 4-inches high resolution touch-screen display, providing high flexibility and usability of the system.
The optional lab stand allows using the ElvaX ProSpector as a laboratory grade instrument under PC or laptop control.
All equipment includes on-site service support by a team of engineers with many years of solid EDXRF experience.
