X-ray
Fluorescence Analyzer MetExpert - GOLD |
|
In earlier days for determination of purity of gold a time consuming
and hazardous fire assay method was commonly used. Other instrumental
techniques, like AAS or plasma spectrometry, are highly expensive and
sample preparation takes also longer time. Moreover, all these methods
are destructive and involve the use of strong acids, high temperature
and the production of toxic fumes. Because personal safety and costs
are important factors MetExpert-GOLD is the right choice for checking
precious metals. The MetExpert-GOLD allows non-destructive determination
of precious and non-precious metals in high-quality alloys within seconds
with high accuracy.

APPLICATIONS:
The XRF analyzer MetExpert-GOLD is
intended for the multiple non-destructive analysis of metals,
of alloys and articles on their basis. Device is specially adapted
for the analysis of reference alloys of precious metals.
The analyzer is one of the first specialized devices oriented
to problems, connected with the treatment, production and check
of precious metals. In the construction of the device the best
components known in the field of the X-ray fluorescent analysis
are used. This applies to analysis in:
-
jewellery industry
-
testing supervision
-
non-destructive expertise of
articles of precious metals in museums, pawnshops
-
non-destructive archeological
expertise of articles of precious metals
-
a banking turnover of precious
metals, coins etc.
-
grading of articles containing
precious metals for secondary processing
-
