All Thermo Scientific Niton XRF analyzers share a superior set of features unmatched in the industry. Constructed with tough Lexan plastic, each analyzer comes with an intuitive graphical user interface and our Thermo Scientific Niton Data Transfer (NDT) software that allows you to customize your instrument – set user permissions, modify alloy grade libraries (if applicable), print certificates of analysis, or remotely monitor and operate the unit hands-free from a PC. You also have the flexibility to transfer data via USB or Bluetooth wireless communications.

Thermo Scientific Niton XL2 980 GOLDD XRF Analyzer, lightweight, rugged, handheld XRF analyzer perfectly suited for your particular testing applications.

Applications

• Precious Metals & Jewellery Analysis
  With the ever-increasing price of precious metals and gems, you cannot afford to incorrectly determine the value of items being bought, sold, or recycled based on “traditional” methods. In just a few seconds, you can determine the exact precious metal content in jewelry, coins, and other valuable products with assay-comparable accuracy.
• Positive Material Identification (PMI)
  PMI using handheld XRF analyzers has become essential for verifying all process components, including incoming materials inspection, in-process verification, and final product inspection. Thermo Scientific Niton analyzers are the industry standard for fast, accurate alloy analysis to verify the composition and proper dilution rate of welded joints.
• Exploration
  Portable XRF analyzers provide fast acquisition of geochemical data for rapid delineation of ore boundaries and the in-depth, quantitative analysis of metal concentrations for mine mapping. Lead times are reduced, which can be critical if the exploration season is short.
• Scrap Metal Sorting
  Handheld Thermo Scientific Niton XRF analyzers have revolutionized the scrap metal recycling industry. In fact, nearly every major recycler in the world2 currently uses our instruments. With today’s volatile commodity prices, fast and accurate alloy sorting and analysis can directly correlate to profitability. Field-hardened, lightweight, water- and dustproof – Thermo Scientific Niton XRF analyzers offer:
• Mine Mapping
  Gathering geochemical data from mining operations is a major challenge to productivity and expense containment. On-site testing labs are often impractical due to environmental factors, weather, and logistics, including the high cost of transporting heavy samples for lab testing
• Enviromental Analysis
  The demand worldwide for clean air, water, and soil is placing ever-increasing focus on contamination prevention and remediation. Whether your challenge is site modeling, risk assessment, on-site clearance screening, or remediation QC, Thermo Scientific Niton XRF analyzers provide:
  • Near-instantaneous, in-situ analysis of soil, lead dust wipes, and air filter samples
  • Accurate testing of RCRA metals, priority pollutants, and U.S. EPA target analytes; easy-to-use tool for RRP compliance
  • Real-time delineation of contamination boundaries, with legally-defensible data
  • Elemental analysis for Chinese drywall; sulfur corrosion on copper pipes
• Toys and Consumer Goods Testing
  In response to regulations, including the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) of 2008, manufacturers, importers, and retailers all must comply with regulations that limit permissible levels of lead and other toxic metals in products ranging from toys and jewelry to clothing, furniture, and packaging. The CPSC and the European Union’s Product Safety Enforcement Forum of Europe (PROSAFE) – as well as major manufacturers and retailers – have chosen and trust Thermo Scientific Niton analyzers for their own screening needs.

The GOLDD advantage

GOLDD technology delivers vast improvements in sensitivity or measurement times – as much as 10-times faster than conventional Si-PIN detectors and up to 3-times more precise than conventional silicon drift detectors (SDD). We achieved this improvement by combining the Niton XL2 GOLDD 45kV, 100 μA x-ray tube, closely optimised geometry, and patented signal processing hardware and software. These advantages are coupled with our drift detector, one of the largest area drift detectors that is commercially available in a handheld XRF analyser, providing you with superior performance in the form of faster analysis and lower detection limits.

With its unparalleled accuracy, you can be confident that the Niton XL2 GOLDD won’t misidentify value, grade, or residuals. The Niton XL2 GOLDD stands alone with its many standard features and available options. By utilizing the standard Thermo Scientific Niton Data Transfer (NDT) PC software suite to customize the instrument, you can set operator permissions, generate custom reports, print certificates of analysis personalized with your own company logo, or remotely monitor and operate the instrument hands-free from your PC.

Integrated USB and Bluetooth communications provide direct data transfer to your PC or networked storage device, eliminating the cumbersome data synchronization procedures required by Windows Mobile based XRF analyzers.
