Handheld & Benchtop XRF Analyzer
Eliminate laboratory wait time. Terra Scientific handheld XRF analyzers deliver non-destructive elemental analysis on the scrap yard, production line, mine site, or in the jewelry shop — in seconds.
Technology
X-ray fluorescence operates at the atomic level. Elemental composition is determined in seconds — without cutting, melting, or transporting the sample to a laboratory.
Application Areas
Covering a broad element range from Mg to U, XRF analyzers play a critical role across many industries.
Technology Assessment
An XRF analyzer is a powerful field tool. We share both its strengths and its limits so you can make the right decision.
| Feature | Detail | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | Results in seconds — no laboratory wait time | Advantage |
| Non-Destructive | Analyze without cutting or melting; sample is undamaged | Advantage |
| Portability | In-situ measurement on large parts, pipes, or hard-to-reach areas | Advantage |
| Sample Preparation | Not required for most applications; minimal surface cleaning sufficient | Advantage |
| Light Elements | Carbon (C), Beryllium (Be), Lithium (Li) cannot be measured due to physical limits | Limitation |
| Depth Penetration | Surface analysis only — coated or painted samples may need grinding | Limitation |
| Mg, Al, Si Sensitivity | Higher detection limits for light elements compared to OES systems | Limitation |
| Radiation License | Ionizing radiation source requires regulatory license and safety training | Limitation |
