OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETRY (OES) Q2 ION BRUKER

Ultra-Compact Metals Analyzer
The new generation of spark spectrometers, Q2 ION, takes metal analysis to new heights of simplicity and ease of use. Currently, it is one of the smallest and lightest ultra-compact spark emission spectrometers for metal analysis accessible. It is a versatile multi-matrix system designed for thorough incoming material inspection and metal alloy quality verification. Copper, aluminum, and iron are its main applications and metal matrices in smaller foundries, inspection firms, metal recycling, and metal fabricators. This spectrometer is appropriate for tiny and medium-sized organizations due to its low operating expenses and reasonable price.
WHY SHOULD YOU NEED Q2 ION OES ?
OES is the platinum standard for metal analysis. It provides quick analysis of your solid metal samples, including positive material identification, alloy grading, and material sorting. The Q2 ION meets the needs of foundries, fabricators, metal recyclers, warehouses, and metal processing plants by combining ease of use, portability, and low operating costs.
BENEFITS
- Dedicated Analytical Solution Packages (ASP) for your analysis needs. The Q2 ION has ASPs available for each base, which include elements and calibrations for all alloy groups. In no time, you will get dependable, thorough analytical results.
- Patented flat field optics with AAC and array detectors with ClearSpectrum® technology ensure optimum stability and best-in-class analytical performance.
- Spark stand that requires almost no maintenance and consumes less argon, resulting in the lowest operating costs.
- (ELEMENTAL).SUITE Provides the highest level of functionality while remaining user-friendly, putting information at your fingertips.
