KENNEWICK, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Bruker Elemental introduces the 2nd generation of its S1
TITAN handheld XRF analyzer platform. Based on extensive
customer feedback, the new S1 TITAN enhancements include a
weatherproof IP54-rated housing and optional integrated camera & small
spot collimator. In addition, the protective TITAN Detector ShieldTM
has been made standard for all models. The patented SharpBeamTM
collimator technology remains a standard feature in all S1
TITAN models. The SharpBeam optimized geometry has many
user benefits, including improved measurement precision, reduced power
requirements and increased battery life.

The new S1 TITAN is available in four configurations:
S1
TITAN 200, 300, 600 and 800. S1 TITAN 600 and 800 use a thin
film window and FASTTM SDD detector for analysis of up to 37
elements, including light elements such as Mg, Al and Si, without the
need for a vacuum or helium gas flush. S1 TITAN 200 and
300 are value analyzers with SiPIN detectors. When equipped with an
aluminized Kapton® window, the S1 TITAN is also
able to measure in-process samples at temperatures up to 500°C.
The new S1 TITAN covers a wide range of applications and
materials. Whether it’s in aerospace or automotive applications, in
metals processing or fabrication, in electronics manufacturing, in a
refinery, in a power plant, in mining, in recycling and scrap sorting,
in consumer products testing, in field environmental analysis, or in the
testing laboratory— the S1 TITAN will quickly and
accurately analyze the elemental composition and identify the alloys of
your sample or parts being tested. The S1 TITAN is capable
of analyzing a vast list of materials, including industrial metals,
exotic aerospace alloys, e-scrap, drill core, soil, consumer goods, and
more.
In addition, the S1 TITAN is available configured
specifically to analyze precious metals. Given the current fluctuation
in gold prices, knowing the exact concentration is critical. Handheld
XRF is a very quick and easy way to measure the value of gold jewelry,
which is being sold or purchased.
John Landefeld
, Executive Vice President of the Bruker Elemental
Division, commented: “Customer feedback is a critical part of our design
process, and has resulted in several further improvements to the very
successful S1 TITAN platform: our redesigned 2nd
generation S1 TITAN now allows customers the flexibility
to choose a collimated small spot (3, 5 or 8mm), in addition to an
integrated camera. The new IP54-rated housing allows the S1 TITAN
to be used under demanding environmental conditions. Also, the popular TITAN
Detector ShieldTM is now standard on
all models. The result is one of the most durable handheld XRF analyzers
on the market today. In addition, our patented SharpBeamTM
technology reduces weight and power consumption. In terms of analytical
performance and proprietary algorithms, the S1 TITAN has
made even further progress for many important metals, mining and
recycling applications and calibrations, and today represents the best
available handheld XRF system for fast, easy-to-use, accurate, reliable
and automated elemental analysis and positive material identification.”
The new S1 TITAN is Bruker’s best-in-class handheld XRF
analyzer, and it complements Bruker’s research line of portable XRF
analyzers, the Tracer. Please visit our website or contact
