Elvatech Prospector 3

Highend Handheld XRF

Prospector 3

High End Handheld XRF

World’s fastest XRF analyzer (throughput above 500 000 cps – more than twice as fast as any other handheld XRF) – highest accuracy within the shortest measurement time, excellent precision

World’s smallest (236 х 193 х 68 mm), and lightest (1.05 kg with a battery) handheld analyzer – easy to operate

Automatic collimator changer for small spot analysis of jewelry, welds etc.

Highest mobility – up to 16 hours of autonomous operation on a single battery charge, hot battery swap

The fastest, lightest and smallest XRF gun on the market

ProSpector 3 is the next-generation handheld X-ray fluorescence analyzer. It offers a new level of analysis accuracy, speed, and detection limits. ProSpector 3 is the smallest and lightest XRF gun on the market with an intuitive and user-friendly software interface. Unique processing algorithms allow analyzing in various fields of application: PMI, Alloys, Precious metals, Archeometry, Petrochemical, Soils, Plastics, Automotive catalysts etc.

  • World’s fastest XRF analyzer (throughput above 500 000 cps – more than twice as fast as any other handheld XRF) – highest accuracy within the shortest measurement time, excellent precision

  • World’s smallest (236 х 193 х 68 mm), and lightest (1.05 kg with a battery) handheld analyzer – easy to operate

  • Dustproof and waterproof instrument body, with IP-67 ingress protection rating – ProSpector 3 can be operated even under water!

  • Automatic collimator changer for small spot analysis of jewelry, welds etc.

  • Folding display – for easy operation in the lab stand without connecting to a PC

  • Highest mobility – up to 16 hours of autonomous operation on a single battery charge, hot battery swap

  • Superior calibration stability, compensation of influence of ambient temperature and pressure variations – no need to spend time for calibration

  • Two CCD cameras for macro- and micro- view

  • Scanning barcodes (commodity EAN and UPC codes, QR codes, book ISBN codes, Databar, Codabar, etc.) that contain information about the sample: name, number, code, etc.

  • Full compatibility with ElvaXTM PC software

  • Radiation safety: proximity sensor and low count rate detection

  • Great choice of accessories for comfortable work.

Data can be transferred from ProSpector 3 to a PC directly via USB, WiFi or Bluetooth connection. MicroSD socket is also available for data storage and transfer. The detector shield protects detector Be window, the most fragile part of the instrument, from being punctured by sharp objects like wires, shavings etc.

Large Folding Display 

ProSpector 3 has the largest touch screen (4.3”) available in hand-held XRF analyzers. All the required data is shown without scrolling. The unique design of the folding display allows for convenient operation in the lab stand with no need to use an external PC. Image autorotation lets you operate the analyzer both in the horizontal and vertical position.
