Thermo Fisher Scientific introduces new update for Niton XL5 XRF analyser

30th March 2017

Thermo Fisher Scientific has introduced a software update for its Niton XL5 handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyser, adding new features to the device.

The latest software release for the device is designed to increase application usage by offering wi-fi support and a new coatings mode for expanded functionality.

With the new coatings feature, users can measure the thickness or weight of up to four coating layers, including alloys, compounds and pure metals, while also defining substrate layers. This doubles the number of coating layers that could be measured by previous models.

Adding wireless connectivity between the Niton XL5 analyser and the user's network, meanwhile, makes it possible to automatically transfer data directly to a specified network folder, saving time and streamlining workflows.

Other new features include a fingerprint mode, new data field sets, an easy trigger functionality, and additional alloy identification tools in general metals mode.

Julie Planchet, vice-president and general manager for portable analytical instruments at Thermo Fisher Scientific, said: "These new capabilities are intended to help our customers address and overcome the most complex challenges when assessing the chemical composition of metals."
