Malvern Panalytical Launches Revontium

Malvern Panalytical has announced the launch of Revontium, which they say is the world’s first compact XRF spectrometer. The new instrument delivers elemental analysis with in a compact 0.4 m2 footprint. The company state that Revontium offers an alternative to 1-2 kW floor-standing systems and can deliver high-quality, repeatable results at a reduced cost of ownership and environmental impact for a variety of industries, including mining.

They go on to explain that X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is a well-established, non-destructive technology for elemental analysis, with a number of gains over techniques such as inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy (ICP) and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). However, large, floor-standing wavelength-dispersive (WDXRF) instruments can be both energy- and cost-intensive. Malvern Panalytical claim Revontium is the only XRF spectrometer on the market delivering comparable results and data quality to these larger instruments, at a significantly reduced footprint.

“Revontium provides our customers with powerful elemental analysis in a compact format. I’m particularly looking forward to seeing how and where our customers will use Revontium. Its ease of use, analytical rigor, and low cost of ownership will deliver benefits across the market. Of course, our team is ready to support customers in getting the most out of Revontium. We’re here to help!” said Lieven Kempenaers, Product Manager XRF - Malvern Panalytical.
