Elemental analysis
I got familiar with this equipment less than three months and I have been able to operate it efficiently. The equipment doesn't require sample preparation in terms of using reagents. It is easy to play with and it is designed to operate with little supervision. The results can be presented is different units (up to ten). It can be used to analyse Air filter, water, powder, pellets, sediment and metal samples. The manufacturers are always ready to help whenever you need a help.

The NEX CG II is a multi-purpose elemental analyzer that delivers rapid qualitative and quantitative elemental analyses and addresses needs across many industries. It is suited to chemical analysis in almost any matrix — from oils and liquids to solids, metals, polymers, powders, pastes, coatings, and thin films.
Cartesian Geometry and Polarization for Trace Level Sensitivity
Unlike conventional energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometers, NEX CG II is an indirect excitation system using secondary targets rather than tube filters. Monochromatic and polarized excitation from secondary targets vastly improves detection limits for elements in highly scattering matrices like water, hydrocarbons, and biological materials. Secondary target excitation in full 90° Cartesian Geometry eliminates background noise. As a result, NEX CG II brings a new level of analytical sensitivity to XRF technology. Users can measure ultra-low and trace element concentrations, even in challenging sample types.
