The first of its kind: "Terra", is the first truly portable combination XRF/XRD system designed specifically for rock and mineral analysis. Now “field work” can really be done in the field. Terra can be configured with everything you need to acquire and analyze diffraction data in a rugged compact case. With our patented sample handling system not only is sample preparation time minimized but accuracy in peak identification previously only available using laboratory based systems can be achieved.
  • Key Features/Benefits:
    * Self contained instrument - battery operated
    * Very simple sample prepartion
    - - - loose powders (~20mg of sample)
    - - - sieve sample to <150um
    * Easy to use, single button operation
    * True 2D powder XRD instrument
    - - - provides image of XRD pattern
    - - - See particle size ifluences or prefered orientation
    * Energy discrimination X-ray detector
    - - - Eliminate Fluorescence, scatter and other background
    - - - XRF spectral data for pattern confirmation
Terra meets all applicable requirments
