Thermo Scientific ARL PERFORM’X XRF spectrometer provides distinct choices of X-ray power for a high-performance, cost-effective solution in any application.
It benefits from a 6th generation goniometer, which is fully digitally mastered and provides the top speed, accuracy and precision, allowing fast analysis of up to 90 elements in the periodic table. Coupled with these advanced performance designs, the ARL PERFORM'X instrument offers the ability for small spot analysis and mapping of non-homogeneous samples or defects in specimens.
X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis is a widely used analytical technique to determine the elemental composition of a wide range of samples, both solids and liquids, with easy sample preparation and non-destructive analysis.
- Achieve desired precision and limits of detection (LoD) while also reducing power and resource consumption and sample preparation time with choice of power levels
- Wide dynamic range (from sub ppm to 100%) and excellent precision

Analysis of polymers for environmental regulations
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) regulations have set rules regarding the highest tolerable limit for certain metals (particularly Pb, Cd, Hg, Br and Cr). In this application note, Thermo Fisher Scientific addresses the environmental impact of plastic accumulation and the potential release of heavy metals during its destruction or recycling. The note highlights how WEEE/RoHS analysis can be performed using the Thermo Scientific ARL™ PERFORM’X series spectrometer. Its Protec-Ultra-Safe design, means that the instrument can completely protect the entire X-ray system. This feature is equipped with liquid cassettes recognition, insuring that no liquid cassette will be subjected to vacuum causing the sample to rupture in the system. The ARL PERFORM’X instrument is also designed with over exposure technology, which automatically ejects a liquid samples if the X-ray exposure time is too long.
Analyze aqueous solutions with the ARL PERFORM’X Advanced WDXRF Spectrometer
The analysis of heavy metals and toxic elements as traces in aqueous solutions is becoming increasingly important in view of the environmental concerns. In this application note, Thermo Fisher Scientific illustrates how the analysis of aqueous solutions can be performed rapidly and with ease using the mid power sequential XRF spectrometer ARL™ PERFORM’X spectrometer at 2500W. Limits of detection for heavy metals and toxic elements range from 0.2 ppm up to 1 ppm in 100 s counting time. The instrument is equipped with advanced features such as multiple primary beam filters, collimators, detectors, and a special X-ray tube for optimal performance.
