Bruker QUANTAX Energy Dispersive X- ray Spectrometer (EDS)

The EDS operates at 121 eV at Mn Ka, providing the energy resolution needed to analyse complex samples – especially in the light element and low energy range below 1 keV.

The system comes with a signal processing unit that allows high pulse processing speeds and guarantees reliable results at any count rate. The processor is capable of over 600 kcps output count rate at more than 1,500 kcps input.

This is valuable because many applications like mapping or particle analysis require high count rates. The EDS’s real-time spectrometry function offers instant information on local sample characteristics. Automation of routine analyses can be set up and performed with the in-built software.
