Concentrations for the following analytes can be determined:
Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, W, Pb, Bi, Zr, Nb, Mo, Sn, Ba, Sb, Cd,
Pd, Sr, Rb, Se, and Ag.
All concentrations are displayed in units of wt. % by default, but can be
changed to ppm.
Note For defensible Quality Control, keep a record of the time and
precision of every calibration.
WARNING! Tampering with the 5,500 ppm (Lead high) lead-in-soil
standard may cause exposure to lead dust. Keep all standards out of reach of
children.
CAUTION Never tamper with Test Standards. They should not be used
unless they are completely intact.
During each test, the instrument looks at the full range of x-ray spectrum
and continuously corrects for cross-element interference.
Set the NITON test platform on a flat, solid surface. Open the lid and place
the sample cup in the holder, then shut the lid. Insert the instrument into
the nose cone adaptor and follow in-situ bulk sample instructions
