PANalytical at
PITTCON 2008 New products and new applications in New Orleans
21 February 2008:
That’s what attendees at this year’s PITTCON Conference & Expo can expect from
PANalytical, the world’s leading X-ray analysis company. Visit the company on
booth #2720-21.
PANalytical’s focus on extending the use of X-ray fluorescence (XRF)
spectrometry and X-ray diffraction (XRD) in the pharmaceutical industry will see
the announcement of MiniPal 4 Pharma and the US launch of CubiX Walk-Up.
MiniPal 4 Pharma will find applications in materials verification, catalyst
residue analysis and detection of contamination, from stainless steel vessels
for example.
CubiX Walk-Up is the first system to bring ‘walk-up’ functionality to X-ray
powder diffraction users. With a simplified interface for anytime access, CubiX
Walk-Up delivers fully automated measurement, analysis and reporting in a
multi-disciplinary environment.
In addition, researchers will have the opportunity to talk to PANalytical
experts about the latest system updates and software releases. Scientists from
the petrochemical, cement, mining and metals industries will find areas
dedicated to the latest XRF, XRD and OES (Optical Emission Spectroscopy)
applications in their fields.
As authorized distributor for OBLF in the USA and Brazil, PANalytical will also
introduce that company’s VeOS spark emission spectrometer at PITTCON. The system
features cutting-edge detector technology that delivers analytical performance
equal to established photomultiplier-based systems. The semiconductor detectors
in the VeOS system were specifically developed for emission spectroscopy and are
100 times more light sensitive than others found in similar systems. VeOS
enables versatile, flexible and rapid analysis of all common metallic materials,
and offers the possibility to extend analytical capabilities to include more
matrices without the need for hardware changes. The analytical range of the VeOS
includes the precise analysis of short wavelength elements such as nitrogen or
low carbon.
