Features

The FISCHERSCOPE X-RAY XUV 773 is an universally applicable energy dispersive Xray measuring instrument. It is ideally suited for non-destructive analysis of thin coatings, traces and light elements. Up to 24 elements in the range of sodium (11) to uranium (92) can be determined simultaneously. Measurements can be performed in vacuum, in ambient air or with helium purge (optional). Therefore also organic or wet samples can be analyzed.

Design

The XUV 773 is a bench top unit. It is equipped with a high-precision, programmable XY-stage and an electrically driven Z-axis. The cylindrical measurement chamber opens motorized and the wide front opening simplifies sample placing. Inside of the spacious vacuum chamber voluminous or unevenly formed parts can be easily analysed. The XUV 773 can be equipped with a helium option. This enables for the measurement of wet samples, liquids or biological samples purged with helium.
