Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer
Product Description
Model: EDX-LE Plus
Manufacturer: Shimadzu
Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy uses X-rays to irradiate a sample and measures the energy (wavelength) and intensity of the resulting fluorescent X-rays to determine the type and amount of elemental composition in the sample. Because X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy can non-destructively analyze solid, powder, and liquid samples, as well as quickly and non-destructively test for hazardous elements in printed circuit boards and other electronic equipment, it is widely used by electrical and electronic and automotive manufacturers worldwide for applications such as inspection and quality control in compliance with the European Union's RoHS/ ELV directives.
The Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Analyzer EDX-LE Plus is an X-ray fluorescence analyzer dedicated to screening and analysis of hazardous elements restricted by RoHS/ELV/regulations. Equipped with a detector that does not require liquid nitrogen-based electronic cooling (high-resolution SDD), it aims to achieve automated analysis by maintaining high confidence in the analysis and further improving operability while realizing lower operating costs and easier maintenance. Since the test time from the start of the test to the result can be completed in less than one minute depending on the sample, it is fully capable of screening and analyzing hazardous elements restricted by the RoHS regulations. In addition, the device can also be used for screening analysis of Cl, a hazardous element that has been detected by many companies in recent years. This device is also recommended as a response to the Chinese version of RoHS 2.0.
Lower running costs and less routine maintenance
Screening analyses, which can be used to check whether the content of hazardous elements meets the standards for most products based on regulatory values, such as for external inspection, are further required to improve on-site operability and reduce operating costs.
Equipped with screening analyzers required only for RoHS Hazardous 5 elements + chlorine
The EDX-LE Plus takes about 1 minute (depending on the sample) from the start of analysis to the results. Not only does it enable high-speed screening analysis, but it also maintains a high confidence level of analysis.
Equipped with a filter easy setting function that can be easily customized according to the management method.
All operations, from the start of the analysis to the production of the analysis report, can be carried out more efficiently.
Simple and easy to operate using the [Screening & Analysis] screen.
The selection of measurement conditions used to depend on the operator's judgment, but now it is automatically judged by the device, which allows even beginners to measure easily and with high accuracy.
Automatic processing from principal component determination to condition selection
With just 1 click, a series of operations from measurement to results can be performed automatically based on pre-registered analysis conditions.
Various functions required for RoHS/ELY/Halogen-free analysis are included as standard.
Users can get a better RoHS/ELV/Halogen-free analysis system without purchasing special options.
Large sample chamber for direct testing of large samples
The large sample chamber can correspond to various sample shapes and sizes.
RoHS, Halogen, Sb Elemental Screening and Analysis Kits
- No hardware modifications required
- Replacement of administration samples only
- Measurement of 7 elements (Cd, Pb, Hg, Br, Cr, Cl, Sb) under the RoHS Directive, halogens, and Sb under the "same conditions".

Product Features
Lower running costs and less routine maintenance
Screening analyses used for external inspection, etc., where the content of hazardous elements in most products can be checked for compliance with regulatory values, have been further demanded to improve on-site operability and reduce operating costs. The EDX-LE Plus was developed in response to these needs.
Equipped with a liquid nitrogen-free detector
The detector, which does not require liquid nitrogen for cooling, is equipped with a detector that drastically cuts down on operating costs at the time of use.
X-ray tube automatic aging function
Optical tube aging (stable operation) to extend the life of the X-ray tube is indispensable for plant management. When the equipment is not operated for a long period of time, the X-ray tube needs to be aged when it is restarted, and the equipment automatically performs this function to prevent malfunctions, thus improving operability.
Device self-test function before testing
In order to obtain accurate analytical results at any time, the device needs to be calibrated, and users want to complete calibration operations and decisions in as short a time as possible. the EDX-LE Plus assists in the operation of energy calibration and quantitative value calibration when the instrument is turned on, and automatically performs calibration when it is needed.
Simple, high-precision screening analysis
Only 15 minutes of stabilization time is required after power is turned ON to begin analysis.
When the content of the target element is confirmed to be acceptable or unacceptable, the device automatically stops the measurement in order to shorten the time, but the instrument can also analyze with high sensitivity and confidence. A 1-point working curve is built into the instrument for quantitative analysis without a standard sample.
Simultaneous screening analysis of Sb elements is possible
The RoHS Directive, halogen and Sb elements can be measured under "one condition" for seven elements.
