Olympus Vanta handheld XRF analyser

Olympus’s latest addition to the Vanta series of handheld XRF analysers is optimised to help ensure compliance with RoHS and local or international regulatory laws. The product combines fast results with a durable design for maximum uptime.

The analyser provides on-the-spot chemical analysis to quickly scan for toxic metals like lead, cadmium, mercury, chromium and bromine in consumer products such as toys, apparel, footwear and electronics to comply with RoHS regulations. Good sensitivity and repeatability enable the product to achieve low detection limits.

The product is IP65 rated for protection against dust and water and drop tested to military standards (MIL-STD-810 G) for greater uptime. It also incorporates Olympus’s Axon XRF signal processing technology that utilises ultralow-noise electronics to deliver high X-ray count rates per second and test-to-test repeatability.

The analyser’s low limits of detection accommodate future compliance as regulations change over time. Other features include: an intuitive interface and responsive touch screen; optional Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity for fast data downloads; and a customisable home screen.
