- Scrap yard testing of freshly cut materials
Test Procedure
- Wear all appropriate safety gear for your application to protect the user.
- Make sure only Main and/or Low filters are enabled (no light filter)
- Ensure sample temperature does not exceed 480C (900F)
- Test time is no more than 5 seconds
- Take a recovery time between shots of 20 seconds. This allows the Niton XL5 to cool down. Please monitor your Niton XL5 during testing. It is your responsibility to ensure that your handheld XRF does not get too hot.
