SciAps X550 Handheld XRF Analyzer Collection

Introducing the SciAps X-550 Handheld XRF Analyzer—a groundbreaking instrument that redefines performance standards in portable elemental analysis. Weighing just 2.98 lbs. (1.3 kg) including the battery, the X-550 is the lightest, fastest, and most agile X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer available, delivering unparalleled speed and precision across a wide range of applications.

Key Features:

Advanced Analytical Performance: The X-550 is equipped with a powerful 5W X-ray tube, operating up to 3 times the power in the Beam 2 setting compared to other handheld XRF analyzers. This enhancement significantly improves the measurement of low atomic number elements such as magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), silicon (Si), phosphorus (P), and sulfur (S), making it exceptionally fast and accurate for applications like sulfidic corrosion analysis and aluminum alloy sorting.
Lightweight and Ergonomic Design: Designed for extended field use, the X-550's compact and well-balanced structure minimizes operator fatigue and allows easy access to confined testing locations, including welds and corners.
User-Friendly Interface: Built on Google's Android platform, the X-550 offers a familiar, smartphone-like experience. Its intuitive interface facilitates seamless navigation through various applications and settings, enhancing user efficiency.
Enhanced Connectivity: With integrated Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS capabilities, the X-550 enables real-time data sharing and geotagging, streamlining reporting and collaboration processes.
Robust Construction: Engineered to withstand demanding environments, the X-550 operates reliably in ambient temperatures ranging from 10°F to 130°F at a 25% duty cycle, ensuring consistent performance in diverse field conditions.

Analytical Modes and Applications:

Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) and Positive Material Identification (PMI): The X-550 delivers rapid PMI for most alloys, providing precise results in as little as one second. It is optimized for critical applications such as residuals analysis (API 751) and sulfidic corrosion monitoring (API 939), ensuring compliance with industry standards.
Scrap Metal Recycling: With its high-speed analysis capabilities, the X-550 efficiently identifies and sorts various metal alloys, including aluminum grades, enhancing productivity and profitability in recycling operations.
- Alloy App offers alloy chemistry and grade ID, with the following elements for all alloy bases: Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Y, Se, Zr, Nb, Mo, Ru, Pd, Ag, Au, Pb, Bi, Sn, Sb, W, Ta, Hf, Re
Mining and Geochemical Analysis: The X-550 offers specialized calibrations for mining applications, providing accurate measurements of rare earth elements and gold pathfinder elements like silver (Ag) and antimony (Sb). Its optional 50 kV mining calibration further improves detection limits for these elements.
- The Soil App utilizes Compton Normalization for ultra sensitive performance optimized for trace level analytes. Elements Included: P, S, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Ag, Cd, Sn, Sb, Cs, Ba, Ta, Hg, Tl, Pb
Environmental Soil Analysis: Equipped with applications for elemental analysis of environmental soils, the X-550 can detect contaminants such as lead (Pb), arsenic (As), and other heavy metals, aiding in site assessments and remediation efforts.
Precious Metals Authentication: The X-550 provides fast, precise chemistry analysis for a wide array of high-temperature alloys, stainless steels, red metals, and precious metals, ensuring accurate valuation and authenticity verification.
