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 autónomo
Una computadora integrada, con Microsoft Windows 10, una potente CPU y 120 GB de disco duro garantizan flexibilidad para almacenar y manejar miles de resultados. La pantalla táctil LCD de alta resolución de 10,4" es ideal para un fácil uso en terreno.
Para utilizar el analizador, conéctelo a una conexión de red estándar y estará listo para encenderlo.
Comunicación fácil
Conexiones USB y de red para periféricos estándar de computadora que admiten un uso extendido, el desarrollo de aplicaciones y que el operador pueda trabajar sentado.
Protección contra derrames
Cuenta con una lámina de protección contra derrames para proteger el delicado corazón del sistema. En caso de derrames, la película se puede reemplazar fácilmente por el operador.
