Advanced WDXRF Spectrometer — ARL PERFORM’X

With its sophisticated platform, the Thermo Scientific ARL PERFORM’X X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) sequential spectrometer can quickly and accurately analyze up to 90 elements in almost any solid or liquid sample.

The ARL PERFORM’X spectrometer provides the superior advantages of XRF analysis, like reproducibility, sensitivity, and simplicity of use, while also setting new benchmarks for efficiency, accuracy, and adaptability on a wide variety of sample types. It also has a revolutionary minimalistic size.

Metallurgy, petroleum, polymers, mining, glass, cement, and refractories are just a few of the tough industrial processes and quality applications in which the spectrometer can address composition problems.

Its efficiency and adaptability will also be useful in academic or research labs working in geochemistry, automobile engineering, materials science, environmental studies, and forensics.
