Bruker Introduces the TITAN Detector Shield
Posted: 2013-2-13
Bruker Elemental is pleased to announce the introduction of the TITAN Detector
Shield.
This unique patent pending accessory protects the detector window from being
punctured by sharp objects like scrap shavings and wires, while allowing rapid
and accurate analysis of almost any material. This protective shield minimizes
the chance that the detector will be damaged, thus avoiding the cost and hassle
associated with the replacement of a broken detector window. This protection
does not sacrifice any of the analytical performance of the instrument, even for
the light elements like magnesium, aluminum and silicon.
John Landefeld, Executive Vice President of the Bruker Elemental Division,
commented: "Handheld XRF users know that detector replacements – due to
accidental puncturing – are very expensive repairs. This unique protection of the
detector will provide S1 TITAN owners and operators with peace of mind and
better up-time."
The TITAN Detector Shield™ is available for both the S1 TITANLE, the SDD based
analyzer, as well as the S1 TITANSP, the Si-PIN based analyzer. This optional
accessory can be ordered with either model when buying a new unit.
