NEX CG - high performance EDXRF
Mar 21 2011
The NEX CG uses secondary targets and polarization for background removal. With a 50 kV, 50 W tube, high performance X-ray source coupled with a state of the art silicon drift detector, the NEX CG represents one of the most advanced energy dispersive XRF (EDXRF) units available today.
The Cartesian geometry optical path allows this instrument to perform at levels not seen before in EDXRF. From ULSD to rapid multi-element analysis for lube oils, used oils and wear metals, the versatility of the NEX CG is unmatched.
Unique features that set this instrument apart from its competition are:
• FP with Rigaku’s unique use of Matching Library reduces or eliminates the need for large suites of calibrations standards in many cases.
• ULSD performance with sulfur LLD = 0.5 ppm in 300 seconds for reliable S measurements well below 10 ppm.
• Meets ASTM D7220, IP 532 and EN/ISO 20847 for ULSD.
• In lube oils, measures the basic four P, S, Ca and Zn as well as Mg, Ba, Cu, Mo and other elements in newer blends. Measure low ppm including Cl.
• Lube oils Mg LLD = 45 ppm, with all other elements showing <3 ppm LLD.
This high-end EDXRF has performance characteristics that give it a best in class rating. Rigaku Corporation.
