The S2 Ranger is a mid-resolution X-ray fluorescence spectrometer capable of detecting elements sodium and heavier. It is a compact instrument with a built in vacuum pump with no need for liquid nitrogen, water-cooling and other utilities often required for XRF instrumentation.
Operation is made simple through an intuitive touch-screen interface, which includes pre-calibrated solutions and Standardless Analysis. The basic operation of this instrument is very easy and can be learned in a matter of minutes. Our instrument is used on a regular basis by our sophomore inorganic chemistry class and by visiting high school students.
The system is equipped with a 28 position X-Y auto sampler that can be preloaded; for example, overnight or for remote access data collections. The auto sampler is always accessible, and new samples can be added at any time, even during a measurement. The S2 Ranger can be used for analyzing a wide range of materials from inorganic and ceramic materials to petrochemicals, polymers, coatings, food and water, paints, pigments and many more.
