SST-mAX Tube

A high power metal-ceramic end window X-ray tube

In conventional high-powered X-ray spectrometers, X-ray tube aging is a major contributor of instrument drift. That impacts not only data quality but also incurs costs and downtime as trained engineers are required to recalibrate your instrument. Malvern Panalytical’s SST R-mAX tube incorporates the innovative ZETA technology (Zero Evaporation Technology Advantage). This development of new material and design geometries optimize important properties such as thermal expansion, thermal conductivity, vapor pressure and adhesion.
