The Mini-Z series of analyzers, a series of compact benchtop wavelength dispersive XRF analyzers, are designed for analyzing specific single elements. Since the optics are configured optimally to a specific element, this series enables high precision and low detection limits.
It is possible to configure Mini-Z as a-Si analyzers such as for coated Si on paper or plastic, and Al analyzers such as for coated Al on paper or plastic, a Ni analyzer such as for Ni coating or plating, a Cl analyzer, a P analyzer for biofuels or a Zr analyzer such as for Zr coating.
The Rigaku Mini-Z series benchtop WDXRF spectrometers are completely contained X-ray generating systems. Safety and interlocks “X-RAY ON” indicators are present in order to protect operators from being exposed to X-rays being produced.
