How Niton XL3t GOLDD+ Portable & Handheld XRF Analyzers Work?
The Niton XL3t GOLDD+ Handheld XRF Analyzer works by directing X-rays onto a material’s surface, causing the atoms in the sample to emit secondary (fluorescent) X-rays. Its GOLDD™ detector measures the energy and intensity of these fluorescent X-rays to determine the elemental composition of the material accurately and almost instantly. The analyzer is non-destructive, portable, and rugged, allowing rapid testing of metals, alloys, soils, and coatings in the field or industrial environments. Built-in touchscreen controls and data management features make operation simple, while connectivity options enable easy transfer and reporting of results.
