Oxford X-MET5000 Handheld XRF Analyzer

Oxford Instruments’ portable XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analysers
X-MET5100 and X-MET5000:
For fastest scrap metal sorting and analysis (often called a ‘metal
analysis gun’)
For high speed PMI (Positive Material Identification) and QC/QA
For fast and reliable compliance screening of restricted elements
(‘elemental analyser’)
For high speed reliable mine mapping and on-site ore analysis
For fast on-site heavy metal analysis of soils (‘soil analyser’)X-MET hand-held XRF analysers are specifically designed for:
positive material identification (PMI)
metal identification/scrap sorting
analysis of alloys and hazardous material analysis (RoHS screening)
analysis of heavy metals in soils on polluted lands and ores at mining sites
screening for lead in toys
detection of lead in paint

Extensive and open grade library

The X-MET allows easy easy editing of the grade libraries, including
the addition of new alloys and naming of alloys. The integrated grade
library contains:
Nickel Alloys, Stainless Steels, Cobalt Alloys, Low Alloy Steel, Tool
Steels, Copper Alloys, Titanium Alloys, Zirconium Alloys, Aluminium
Alloys
The X-MET is capable of storing thousands of grade identifications and
it’s easy to add new elements or to create a custom library.
The top of the range X-MET5100 combines Oxford Instruments’
groundbreaking Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) with a powerful 45kV X-ray
tube. This cutting edge technology delivers a five times faster
measurement speed, much better detection limits and significant
accuracy improvement over conventional systems.
Isn’t it time you used X-MET to improve your productivity?
Engineered for high performance and reliability, this hand-held XRF
analyser combines Oxford Instruments’ patented PentaPIN® detector
technology offering guaranteed fast analysis and lower limits of
detection for all elements of interest.
X-MET5000 XRF hand-held analyzer is built for the most demanding
quality control applications:
scrap metal analysis & sorting – analysis of metals for PMI – consumer
products for RoHS screening – lead in toys – compliance testing – ore
exploration in mining processes – heavy metals monitoring in soils
Silicon Drift Detector technology improves your productivity saving you money!
The X-MET5000 combines Oxford Instruments’ ground breaking Silicon
Drift Detector (SDD) with our own purpose built powerful 45kV X-ray
tube. This cutting edge technology delivers a five times faster
measurement speed,  improved detection limits and significant accuracy
improvement over conventional systems.
This rugged and reliable portable XRF analyzer is IP54 (NEMA 3)
approved for superior dust and splash protection.
The X-MET5000 range is perfect for the harshest environments. The
battery operating time of one working day is unique and enables
extended productivity without returning to base.
The powerful user programmable software delivers highly accurate
results for reliable Go/No-Go decisions.
The X-MET5000 will identify material type and automatically choose the
best XRF analysis method.
