(openPR) - Woburn, MA---Innov-X Systems announces the introduction of several new products for x-ray fluorescence analysis of alloys and other applications described in an informative new 12-page technical brochure. The new products include the most diverse, high performance line of applied industrial XRF analyzers in the world. From the smallest, toughest handheld XRF, to XRF’s for on-board or on-platform marine and oil/gas industries, to continuous high-throughput sorting systems, Innov-X is the one company that can provide a solution for virtually any elemental analysis requirement.

• X-50 high-powered, mobile XRF: the ultimate benchtop XRF featuring 10X or more the power of handhelds now in a mobile package.
• New Ultra-rugged handheld alloy analyzer – a totally sealed, weatherproof unit without a PDA.
• Low Z - Al, Si & Mg analysis now available-- with a patent-pending internal vacuum for handheld XRF – still the most portable XRF in the world.
• Online systems for continuous monitoring of production lines; automated high volume sorting systems for recycling, SEA-Mate line of XRF analyzers analyzing oils, fuels and lubricants

Don Sackett, Innov-X CEO, notes: “When you invest in our analyzers, you’re dealing with a company that routinely delivers the next innovation in elemental analysis – a company with a proven record of delivering state-of-the-art XRF solutions, and customer friendly upgrades, options and service. That’s why we’re known as the #1 manufacturer of handheld XRF in the world.”

Innov-X now offers two handheld analyzer configurations. The ultra-rugged design handheld XRF is a fully sealed, weatherproof XRF featuring a heavy-duty package, that is impervious to moisture and dust. The Alpha Series™ is the classic, popular handheld XRF engineered around a removable PDA.

Applications include alloy chemistry and grade for positive materials identification (PMI), NDT and Quality Control uses. The Innov-X XRF has become the preferred analyzer for petrochemical, production/power and fabrication industries. It is widely accepted for alloy verification in nearly every major refinery, the nuclear power industry, and by leading recyclers, alloy producers and fabricators.

Detect challenging elements at significantly lower detection levels, using the high power mobile capabilities of the new X50 MobiLab ™ unit. The X-50 mobile XRF offers a higher level of power and performance not possible in smaller handheld XRF’s. Operating at up to 25 times the power of a handheld XRF, the X-50 is an industrial-grade XRF offering the performance of traditional tabletop XRF systems while maintaining Innov-X Systems signature XRF portability. The X-50 is hardened for in-field use, unlike traditional benchtop XRF. It goes anywhere – it can be operated by battery or AC power. Its onboard factory calibrations make it exceptionally easy to use by non-technical operators. The underlying software can includes a full-featured analytical and user calibration package for advanced technical users.

High Volume Material Sorting Systems—the new QXR high-throughput, automated sorting systems operate at 20 – 100 tons/hour depending upon the material. And are designed for continuous, high feed rate material identification and sorting such as in metal shredders and other recycling plants. Applications include:
• Alloys – upgrading stainless, zorba, copper and
other heavies. Also high Cu or Zn aluminum.
• Glass.
• PVC, BFR in polymer streams.
• “Meatball” extraction (diverting copper-bearing
material from ferrous streams).

FOX-IQ Factory online XRF Analyzers-- Innov-X offers a complete line of XRF-based
process analyzers. Applications include continuous or discrete analysis of alloy tubing,
liquid and slurry streams via patent-pending flow cell technology.

SEA-Mate Oil Analyzer-- In partnership with the world’s largest shipping company A. P. Moller-Maersk, Innov-X has designed and manufactured the SEA-Mate line of XRF analyzers for analysis of oils, fuels and lubricants. These analyzers are designed for the marine and other heavy transportation industries and have been rigorously tested on board numerous Maersk vessels.
Small-spot XRF Analysis with Hawk-i™-- Designed mainly for the Pb-free and RoHS market,
the Hawk-i has a small-spot x-ray beam (down to 1 mm in diameter) for elemental analysis of solder joints, small leads or other components where it is critical that the x-ray beam be aligned and striking only the sample region of interest.

Totally Free of Radioactive Materials--All Innov-X XRF analyzers employ our pioneering tube technology, unlike other units; thus eliminating the risk and headaches of controlling radioactive materials:

• Reduces regulatory baggage – no wipe tests,
minimal travel restrictions, easy to transport.

• Eliminates the liability of isotope control,
improper use, theft and disposal.

About Innov-X Systems
Innov-X Systems is a vital new force in the x-ray fluorescence (XRF) industry. Their systems perform fast, accurate chemical analysis in seconds to identify, differentiate and quantify most materials by elemental composition. Founded in 2001, they pioneered handheld XRF instrumentation using a miniature x-ray tube rather than radioactive isotopes. Innov-X has rapidly expanded into many other XRF areas. These include the new SEA-Mate™ System for marine on-board fluids analysis; MobiLab X50, a portable XRF that in comparison to handheld units, delivers higher power and superior performance throughout the periodic table. Innov-X has also taken a leading position in custom XRF and online/automated XRF instrumentation.

With R&D and manufacturing facilities in the U.S., Innov-X has offices in Europe (the Netherlands), and Asia (Hong Kong). They maintain sales and service alliances in Canada, the Middle East, Latin America and worldwide. Service, installation and training is available in over 100 countries.
