Factory-Refurbished Olympus Vanta Element-S Handheld XRF Analyzer – RoHS & WEEE Screening

Save Money. Maximize Value. Get Top-Tier Performance at a Fraction of the Price.

This factory-refurbished Olympus Vanta Element-S is configured specifically for RoHS and WEEE compliance testing — enabling rapid, on-site screening for restricted hazardous substances such as Lead (Pb), Mercury (Hg), Cadmium (Cd), Hexavalent Chromium (Cr⁶⁺), and Brominated Flame Retardants (Br). Whether used for electronics manufacturing, component sourcing, recycling, auditing, consumer-goods testing, or environmental risk assessment, this analyzer provides fast, nondestructive detection with laboratory-comparable confidence.

The Vanta Element-S enables immediate pass/fail screening, batch-inspection testing, supplier verification, and internal compliance documentation — greatly reducing reliance on outside lab testing. This allows companies to avoid regulatory violations, prevent contaminated parts entering production, accelerate supply chain verification, and ensure components meet EU RoHS, China RoHS, and WEEE directives for safe commercial distribution.

What This Instrument Detects

Designed for screening of RoHS-restricted elements, including:

• Lead (Pb)
• Mercury (Hg)
• Cadmium (Cd)
• Chromium (Cr⁶⁺ / total Cr)
• Bromine (Br) associated with PBB/PBDE flame retardants

Typical Analysis Targets:

• PCBs, solder joints, contacts, terminals
• Consumer electronics housings and connectors
• Wire harnesses and cable insulation
• Plastic components containing BFRs
• Switches, relays, buttons, fasteners
• Recycled electronics (WEEE) sorting
• AlloyPlus for Alloy Identification

RoHS-Focused Use Cases

• Incoming component inspection
• OEM & subcontractor compliance verification
• Supplier RoHS certification auditing
• WEEE / recycling material sorting
• Customs & regulatory screening
• Internal quality control & documentation
• Preventing contaminated components from entering production

How It Works in Practice

Users can:

• Scan individual components or built assemblies
• Receive elemental concentration readings in real time
• Apply pass/fail thresholds based on regulatory limits
• Export results for compliance reports and documentation
• Maintain traceable testing records for audits and certification
