Niton XL5 handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer includes three new calibration modes and additional functionality designed to ease screening of products for hazardous materials.

Now includes electronic alloy, plastics and industrial paint modes. Screens electronic materials for prohibited and harmful elements such as lead, arsenic, cadmium and bromine. Plastics mode is designed to measure hydrocarbons for heavy metals, while industrial paint mode is designed to ease the analysis of painted structures or paint samples that have a higher range of concentrations than consumer paint. Weighs 2.8 lb. (1.3 kg), with a compact, ergonomic design to reduce operator fatigue. Features powerful, miniaturized 5W x-ray tube that allows users to observe lower limits of detection. Point-and-shoot simplicity is designed to provide fast and accurate results.
