Fast reliable elemental analysis for environmental monitoring

Testing soil for heavy metals? Monitoring toxic aerosols on air filters? Checking industrial waste streams? Elemental analysis by EDXRF (energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence) might be your go-to solution for monitoring environmental contaminants. 

EDXRF is a widely used type of XRF because it provides a fast, reliable, and cost-effective way for determining elemental composition in almost any sample type. Rigaku’s EDXRF benchtop analysers give you the versatility and flexibility to meet evolving environmental testing demands. 

The system offers several analytical advantages, including rapid, non-destructive testing that delivers both qualitative and quantitative results. It can measure elements ranging from sodium to uranium, detecting concentrations from trace parts per million to high weight percentages.

Designed for ease of use, it features intuitive software with a multilingual interface. Minimal sample preparation is required, and there are no complex setups involved. Users can install and maintain the system themselves.

Built to meet real-world demands, the system has a compact design suitable for both laboratory and rugged environments. It is cost-effective both upfront and over time and comes backed by a two-year warranty.

Rigaku EDXRF benchtops include the NEX CG II Series for trace-level sensitivity for complex applications and research, the NEX DE Series for high-performance and small spot analysis applications, and the NEX QC Series for routine checks and in-field use. 

Ideal for complex environmental applications, the NEX CG II Series analysers deliver ultra-low detection limits and excel in variable base matrices, without the need for a full suite of calibration standards. Perfect for monitoring industrial waste streams to the sub-ppm levels, testing soils, and particulate matter.
