Spectro Analytical Instruments have introduced a new line of Spectro Xepos spectrometers. They include developments in adaptive excitation, and tube and detector technologies that improve sensitivity (often by 10× or more). The X-ray tubes in the new instruments remain powered on between measurements to prevent on/off variations from affecting readings. This provides long-term stability and precision up to 3× better than before. If speed is prioritised over precision, the new spectrometers can reduce measurement times achieving analyses of most samples within a few minutes. Operating software has been redesigned and the new TurboQuant II software analyses practically any unkown liquid, powder or solid sample.
