Brand History (Why Your Analyzer Still Has Value)
Many sellers are unsure what brand their analyzer falls under.
Here’s how the lineage works:
- Innov-X Systems → original manufacturer
- Acquired by Olympus
- Became Evident (Olympus Scientific Solutions)
- Now part of Wabtec
Because of this transition, your analyzer may be labeled under any of these names—but they are all part of the same product evolution.
What Affects the Value of Older XRF Analyzers
Several factors determine resale potential:
Working vs Non-Working Condition
Fully operational units are easier to resell, but even non-working units may still have value.
Detector and X-Ray Tube Condition
Failures in these components significantly reduce value due to high repair costs.
Model Age
Older units may have limited support but can still be useful for basic applications.
Accessories Included
Chargers, batteries, and cases can help improve resale value.
