Horizon Benchtop Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence (TXRF) Spectrometer
GNR Horizon Benchtop Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence (TXRF) Spectrometer The GNR Horizon is an advanced Benchtop Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence (TXRF) Spectrometer designed for highly sensitive qualitative and quantitative multi-element analysis. Engineered for the determination of major constituents and ultra-trace elements in liquid samples and suspensions, the Horizon combines state-of-the-art TXRF technology with exceptional analytical performance, making it an ideal solution for research laboratories, environmental monitoring, pharmaceuticals, and industrial quality control. Based on the principle of Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence (TXRF), a specialized form of Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF), the Horizon directs an X-ray beam onto a thin sample layer at an extremely small incident angle. This total reflection effect significantly enhances excitation efficiency while minimizing background noise, enabling simultaneous multi-element analysis from Sodium (Na) to Plutonium (Pu) with excellent sensitivity and detection limits down to the ng/g range or lower. The Horizon eliminates matrix effects and does not require matrix-dependent calibration curves, allowing fast, reliable, and highly reproducible measurements with only a minimal sample volume. Its microanalysis capability and outstanding detection sensitivity make it particularly suitable for trace element analysis where conventional analytical techniques may be limited. Equipped with a high-performance X-ray generator, precision Silicon Drift Detector (SDD), multi-position sample holder, and intuitive operating software, the GNR Horizon delivers accurate analytical results while providing safe, user-friendly operation at an affordable investment cost.
