X-5000
The Olympus X-5000 is engineered to provide in-the-field XRF analysis. The X-5000 is offered with two different x-ray tube anode choices. A tantalum (Ta) anode x-ray tube configuration is used for excellent sensitivity measuring 25+ transition metals including Cd, Ag, Au, Pb, Cr, and even Rare Earth Elements. A rhodium (Rh) anode configuration is offered when the application calls for analysis of light elements including Al, Si, S, Mg and P, along with mid-range transition metals. Typical uses for this product are: analysis of liquids, solids or powders for mobile labs or at-line incoming/outgoing material inspections.
