Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. will demonstrate its family of Thermo Scientific Niton handheld XRF analyzers, including the Niton XL2 Series and Niton XL3t Series with geometrically optimized large area drift detector (GOLDD) technology, within booth #E-5242 at IMTS 2010, taking place 13-18 September at McCormick Place, Chicago, Illinois. Thermo Scientific Niton analyzers can help users instantly regain lost material traceability. Handheld Niton XL2 and Niton XL3 Series XRF analyzers are purpose-built for alloy analysis. These nondestructive instruments provide integral storage of all test results, in a tamperproof data format. Multiple communication options include Bluetooth* wireless, USB and RS-232 serial communication ports. They also come standard with Thermo Scientific Niton Data Transfer (NDT) software, a suite of data management utilities that allows users to set operator permissions, print certificates of analysis to document results or operate the analyzer remotely from a PC. The NDT file format preserves and protects the data from each sample analysis, ensuring that this data is not unintentionally or intentionally compromised.
