MicroMax-003

The MicroMax-003 is a third generation microfocus sealed tube X-ray generator for X-ray diffraction and crystallography.

It is the perfect X-ray source for someone who wants the benefits of a microfocus X-ray source (low power consumption and long tube life) without the added maintenance that goes along with a more powerful rotating anode microfocus X-ray source.

It consists of a tightly coupled microfocus generator and specially designed confocal multilayer optic to provide an extremely low-maintenance system. With performance that exceeds that of the previous generation of 5.4 kW RU rotating anode generators, the MicroMax-003 is the perfect upgrade path for users of these systems.

Productivity can be measured in many ways but the up-time of a system is perhaps one of the most important issues. The MicroMax-003 will run maintenance free for years, and when you do have to change an X-ray tube, it has been designed to be as easy as a standard sealed tube X-ray source.


MicroMax-003 Features:

• Very small beam, less than 100 microns at the crystal, provides superior signal to noise.
• 3 year warranty on the tube reduces cost of ownership.
• Integrated optics are optimized for the detector type (PILATUS or IP).
• Integrated Confocal MaxFlux double bounce optic. The double-bounce μCMF optics provide up to 70X better Cu Kβ suppression than single bounce optics, providing a beam with less noise, lower divergence and more intensity, allowing for more accurate data collection on small crystal samples.
