A powerful combination: SciAps is a Malvern Panalytical company
The world’s dependency on critical rare earth elements (REEs) has never been higher. However, the ability to properly analyze these elements in the field has been underwhelming.
Conventional portable XRF, with maximum X-ray tube voltages of 50kV, can measure the light REEs but struggles to measure heavy REEs in any practical way due to inadequate excitation and severe spectral overlaps with common metals such as Fe, Cu, Ni.
Utilizing an 80kV miniature X-ray tube, the SciAps PowerHouse can efficiently excite the K shell emission lines for both light and heavy REEs and pathfinder elements Ag, Cd, Sn, Sb, Ba.
The analyzer also measures another 25 elements important to mining and exploration. By analyzing these high-energy K-lines, the complicated spectral overlaps with common metals are avoided completely, yielding unprecedented limits of detection and better performance than any other portable XRF.
Heavy REEs: Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu
Light REEs: La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu
With multiple excitation parameters, the PowerHouse measures a wide range of elements just like other portable XRFs including transition metals, common pathfinders, and other economically important elements.
Portable, battery powered, and easily transported from site to site. Running on the familiar and intuitive SciAps user interface, the data is easy to acquire, easy to record and easy to share with built in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS.
The analyzer is fully Cloud-enabled and is equipped with two cameras, one viewing the testing chamber, the second for external photo-documentation, allows operators to seamlessly tag results with high-resolution spatial coordinates. It operates for 6+ hours on twin Li-ion batteries or AC power that also recharges the batteries.
