Portable X-ray Diffractometer

On-site XRD analysis for Geology and Mineralogy

Xplorex GmbH, Germany is a well-known leading supplier of portable X-ray Diffractometer. Their model The Planet is the beacon in the field of on-site powder diffraction.

 

One of the most important applications of X-ray diffraction is the identification of the phases in soil samples taken during an exploration. Among others the results of these analyses help you decide whether it is worthwhile to return to the site for further investigation.

 

What if these analyses could be done already in the field?

• Save significantly on lead time and cost
• Allow for pre-selection of sample. Only the most interesting ones need to be sent to a laboratory.
• Immediately yield the results where and when you need them

 

Therefore, we have the PLANET!

• A portable diffractometer designed to meet all the specifications needed for complex phase identifications
• Works on a set of Li-ion batteries with constant performance of minimum 4 hours (20Ah at 24 V)
• 30W X-ray tube with Cu-anode. Co on request
• Ultra-sensitive linear detector covering 7° in 2Theta
• Compact design based on the Seemann-Bohlin focusing geometry
