Explorer Series
The Explorer Series are handheld XRF devices detecting elements from magnesium to uranium. They do not use a gas purge for analysis, and contains a 5 inch high-definition screen with 360 degree rotation. The EXPLORER 3000 is designed for RoHS & hazardous substances screening, the 5000 is designed for alloys and the 7000 is designed for mineral ores.
