Factory calibrations do not include every element, but are provided for a set 15-20 elements depending on the application. Elements exclude unstable and radioactive elements. Detection limits vary greatly by element and sample type. SciAps LIBS series handheld analyzers, at just 3.5 lbs. (1.6 kg) with battery, have an internal camera for precise targeting of analysis locations, a macro camera for photo documentation of samples, reading bar codes and QR codes, a patented “sample sensor” that allows Class 1 operation (subject to LSO approval), high-resolution, rear facing display for easy viewing, rugged metal body for maximum durability; a tapered, narrow snout for difficult-to- access test locations, and userreplaceable argon that provides hundreds of tests at pennies per test.

• The Z-901 for alloy analysis measures 15-20 elements in 7 common alloy bases, including aluminum, stainless, iron, copper, titanium, nickel and cobalt bases. Other bases may be added for a small fee, or users may add their own calibrations.
• ‍Need to measure lithium in alloys? Use Z-902, with extended range to 620 nm to measure Li emission.
• ‍Need to measure carbon in steels and stainless—including verifying L- and H-grade stainless? Use SciAps Z-902 Carbon, in use globally for measuring carbon and other elements in steels, stainless and nickel alloys.
• ‍Already own handheld XRF—and only need to add carbon measurements? Use Z-901 CSi, the ultra-compact analyzer that measures C and Si in steels, stainless.
• The Z-901 features an all-new ergonomic design, a 0.5 lb. weight reduction down to about 3.5 lbs. (1.6 kg), improved heat dissipation, and completely updated software and processing electronics.
• A single spectrometer to covers the wavelength range of 200 – 440 nm. The instrument is factory calibrated for a suite of 15-20 elements, depending on application. Or operators may use the accompanying Profile Builder software package to customize to specific elements, their own calibration standards, and spectral processing.  The Z-901 can be set up to measure the emissions of any element except Li, Na, H, C, N, O, Cl, Br, F, Ce, Rb, S. Common factory-calibrated Z-901 applications include alloy, mining and environmental analysis, typically for beryllium in soil.

Weighing just 4.93 lbs. (2.24 kg) with battery, SciAps Z-903 can be usedanywhere in the world for instant elemental analysis — and no X-ray regulations. Powerful laser delivers 5-6 mJ/pulse on the sample, with a 50 Hz repetition rate. Laser raster can rapid-sample multiple locations in one test for fuller data. Analysis averaging available for multi-shot averaging and data rejection. Sample alignment micro-camera and LED Spotlight focus just where you want. Small aperture for unparalleled small-piece analysis. On-board argon-purge for precision and superior limits of detection.

The Z-903 accomplishes what no other portable analyzer has done. It’s a handheld analyzer that measures every element in the periodic table of the elements – from H to U.

It uses the same powerful laser as SciAps other Z-900 models, but with an extended spectrometer range from 190 nm out to 950 nm.

• The extended range allows emission lines from elements H, F, N, O, Br, Cl, Rb, Cs and S to be measured. These lines cannot be measured with the other Z-900 series analyzers.
• There are other benefits to the extended range. For example, it measures a more sensitive line for lithium near 675 nm to achieve limits of detection in the 2-5 ppm range.
• It also measures a more sensitive, and interference-free line for potassium (K). The more traditional potassium lines have heavy iron interference, whereas the line used by the Z-903 is free of such interference.

Range of Portable XRF ANalyser and Carbon PMI manufactured by Sci-Aps Inc. USA Worlds first portable Laser OES weighing 2 Kgs. which can analyse Carbon in stainless steel and alloys steel and segrragate High and Low grades of steel. The Z-70 is a rugged handheld air-burn LIBS designed specifically for material ID testing. This new device brings the same industry leading technologies SciAps customers love into a pure sorting tool. The Z-70 is the easiest to use LIBS in the SciAps portfolio for material ID.

The Z-70 uses a 6 mJ/pulse laser which is the most powerful in the LIBS sorting market. Traditional material ID instruments use high repetition 150 μJ/pulse lasers that are too weak to properly clean dirty surfaces. This leads to wrong matches and extra time prepping the sample surface. Any time gained in testing versus XRF is lost in sample preparation and bad data. The Z-70 is designed for testing with real world samples. An integrated air pump make sure your window stays cleaner for longer and accurate data is being obtained.

The Z-70 is also the most versatile instrument in the LIBS sorting market. It provides great flexibility in an easy to use format by allowing users to enter in their own grades and make adjustments that meet your testing needs. The Z-70 can be calibrated for single base or multiple bases. Even if a base is not calibrated, the Z-70 can easily distinguish the base material without giving misleading results. Z-70 has an internal camera for precise targeting of analysis locations, essential for turnings a macro camera for photodocumentation of samples, and for reading bar codes and QR codes; apatented 'sample sensor' ensuring Class 1 operation; an intuitive Android operating system offering user-friendly navigation a high- resolution rear-facing display rugged metal body a narrow snout forwelds or difficult-to-access test locations and an air pump that keepsthe analysis window clean for best results.
