The SciAps X-550 sets a new performance standard for handheld XRF. It’s the lightest, fastest, most articulate X-ray gun ever made — 2.98 lbs. with battery — and delivers the small size, blazing speed and high precision of the SciAps X Series in a perfectly balanced device. The X-550 was especially designed for NDT, PMI users who must access hard-to reach test locations and welds. The X-550 also features a powerful, miniaturized X-ray tube designed to excel at measuring low atomic number elements Si, P, S, Mg and Al. This tube combined with highly optimal internal geometry yields fast, precise results on previously challenging applications like measuring silicon for sulfidic corrosion, and low magnesium in aluminum alloys.

The Z-901 features an all-new ergonomic design, a 0.5 lb. weight reduction down to about 3.5 lbs. (1.6 kg), improved heat dissipation, and completely updated software and processing electronics. General alloy testing for scrap sorting, PMI/NDT or quality assurance. Does not measure carbon. The Z-901 also leads the way featuring the first-ever “dual burn” technology. Users can test with the 901 either using an “air burn” method or using argon-purge for applications requiring higher precision and lower limits of detection.
A single spectrometer to covers the wavelength range of 200 – 440 nm. The instrument is factory calibrated for a suite of 15-20 elements, depending on application. Or operators may use the accompanying Profile Builder software package to customize to specific elements, their own calibration standards, and spectral processing. The Z-901 can be set up to measure the emissions of any element except Li, Na, H, C, N, O, Cl, Br, F, Ce, Rb, S. Common factory-calibrated Z-901 applications include alloy, mining and environmental analysis, typically for beryllium in soil.
