A DELTA handheld XRF analyzer, configured in SmartShot Soil analysis mode, was used to measure Lead (Pb) in four NIST soil matrix standards and a blank. As shown below, analysis spectra can be easily overlaid and compared using the Delta PC Software. Here the user has zoomed in on the Pb La and Lb peaks for direct comparison.
Analysis results for the NIST standards are shown at right.
A 60 second measurement time was used.
Results shown in ppm.
+/- error shown is 2-sigma, 95% confidence.

A DELTA handheld XRF analyzer, configured in SmartShot soil analysis mode, was used to run repeat measurements on a reference soil sample, to demonstrate repeatability. As shown below, the DELTA PC Software can be used to overlay spectra from different readings for direct comparison and analysis.
A reference sample spiked with approximately 500ppm Pb (sample 408) was used for these repeat readings.
DELTA Environmental Handheld XRF Analyzers test for dangerously high levels of RCRA, Priority Pollutant and hazardous metals in seconds. HHXRF is used for soils and sediments according to EPA 6200 and other SOPs, filters per NIOSH or OSHA methods, screening surfaces and measuring dust wipes for Pb, Cd, Cr, As, Hg, and more.
Combining a Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) and a 4W optimized X-ray tube, the DELTA Professional provides superior performance in speed, LODs, and elemental range. It analyzes Mg and higher for Alloys and Mining. The DELTA Professional is the best value solution from Olympus for handheld XRF.
