Overview
Epsilon 1 will be pre-calibrated in the factory for analyzing of Pt, Pd and Rh in spent automotive catalytic convertors. Put loose powder in a sample cup and measure directly.
The accuracy of the method is validated by measuring Certified Reference Materials. The results clearly demonstrate the capability of Epsilon 1 for the analysis of valuable precious metals Pt, Rh and Pd in catalytic converters.

Guaranteed maximum safety
All Malvern Panalytical X-ray solutions are designed according to the strict regulations of regulatory bodies. The Epsilon 1 tabletop system shields its users against X-rays during analysis.
You’ll have peace of mind in the lab thanks to a unique internal interlocked enclosure providing complete radiation protection, deserving its Vollshutz classification. No need to worry about safety as the system is fully enclosed and completely safe.
Be Flexible
Sometimes, it’s just not possible or worthwhile to calibrate all your sample types. Perhaps there are no standards, or those that are available are too expensive. But you can still use a generic method to analyze the elemental composition of a single sample. Even better – this method is available on our Epsilon 1 XRF benchtops.
How does this work? By using our standardless Omnian software! Combining twenty generic samples with the power of physics, Omnian can quantify elemental composition for a wide variety of sample types – including polymers and liquids.
Sistema independente
Um computador embutido, com o Microsoft Windows 10, uma poderosa CPU e um disco rígido de 120 GB, garante a flexibilidade para armazenar e lidar com milhares de resultados. De alta resolução, a tela de LCD sensível ao toque, de 10,4", é ideal para facilitar o acesso e a operação.
Para operar o analisador, conecte-o a uma tomada elétrica padrão e ele estará pronto para ser ligado.
Comunicação fácil
Entrada USB e conexões de rede para uso de periféricos padrão para mais opções de uso, desenvolvimento de aplicações e utilização para um operador sentado.
Proteção contra vazamento
Uma lâmina de proteção contra derramamento instalada para proteger o delicado coração do sistema. Em caso de vazamento, esta película pode ser facilmente substituída pelo operador.

Software
Software Epsilon
O software Epsilon é a plataforma de software para análises de FRX utilizada nos sistemas de EDXRF de bancada Epsilon 1 e Epsilon 4 da PANalytical.
Stratos
Omnian
O software Omnian permite aos usuários obter a melhor análise possível quando métodos ou padrões certificados especiais não existem.
FingerPrint
O módulo de software FingerPrint, aliado ao sistema Epsilon EDXRF, é ideal para testes de materiais quando a rapidez da análise é importante, mas a composição real não é de interesse.
