For low level detection of heavy elements, a totally new energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometer, Epsilon 5, has been introduced by PANalytical. This spectrometer can detect elements from sodium to uranium in solid, pressed powder, granule, liquid, thin film and loose material samples. Measurements can be performed in a vacuum or helium atmosphere. In view of the growing environmental concern and stricter legislation, Epsilon 5 is designed to support applications in several fields, inducing land reclamation, fossil and secondary fuel usage, emissions monitoring, recycling, catalyst production and electronics and electrical appliance manufacture. Epsilon 5 excels at trace analysis of heavy elements, such as As, Pb, Cd and the lanthanides in concentrations from 100% down to sub-ppm levels. For more information contact: info@panalytical.com
