The Spectro xSORT XHH04 is a next-generation handheld ED-XRF spectrometer engineered for on-the-spot metal analysis. It delivers fast, accurate, and reliable elemental testing of metals and alloys in diverse environments — from scrapyards and foundries to manufacturing QA/QC and PMI inspections.
With high-speed measurement (as little as 2 seconds for most alloys), rugged field-proven design, and industry-leading iCAL calibration logic, the xSORT XHH04 is trusted worldwide for positive material identification (PMI), scrap sorting, and compliance testing.

Applications
The Spectro xSORT XHH04 handheld XRF analyzer is designed for metals analysis across industries:
Scrap Metal Sorting
Instantly separate and identify metals in recycling operations. Grade verification improves scrap value and prevents costly mix-ups.
Positive Material Identification (PMI)
Essential for petrochemical, aerospace, power generation, and manufacturing facilities. Quickly confirm incoming materials and verify alloy integrity in pipelines, valves, and critical components.
Quality Control & Assurance (QA/QC)
Analyze incoming raw materials, semi-finished goods, and finished products to ensure compliance with specifications and certifications.
Foundry & Smelting Operations
Perform fast checks on melts, alloys, and finished castings without slowing production lines.
Fabrication & Welding
Validate filler materials and ensure weld integrity by confirming proper alloy composition.
Mining & Exploration
With proper calibration, extend analysis to ores, concentrates, and exploration samples in the field.
Models
xSORT Alloy (Si-PIN detector)
Entry-level model.
Rapid grade identification where light-element analysis isn’t required.
Ideal for incoming inspection and scrap sorting.
xSORT XHH04 with SDD Detector (Premium Model)
High-sensitivity silicon drift detector (SDD).
Handles light-element alloys (Al, Mg, Si, P, S).
Preferred for PMI, aerospace, and high-spec industries.
Accessories & Options
Docking Station & Sample Chamber – stationary testing for small parts.
Extra Batteries & Chargers – extend operation in the field.
Protective Windows & Shields – reduce backscatter and safeguard internal components.
