Engineered to help conquer your toughest analytical challenges, the Niton Apollo analyzer specializes in measuring carbon content in a convenient, portable form factor. Powered by laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), this analyzer delivers unmatched speed, superior performance and enhanced productivity. Unleash the possibilities and bring the power of lab analysis to the field. Analytical performance Designed to provide fast analysis and low detection limits, the Niton Apollo ensures superior results. Powered by an effective laser and high purity argon purge, the Niton Apollo analyzer delivers lab quality analysis in about 10 seconds. Users can calculate carbon equivalency and perform advanced averaging, while also identifying alloy grades and programming pseudo elements. Data is displayed in real time, enabling fast and efficient decision making. Expanded field use Avoid maneuvering heavy equipment into tight spaces. Weighing just 6.4 pounds (2.9 kilograms), the Niton Apollo analyzer transforms a traditional laboratory, or cart-mounted optical emission spectroscopy (OES) system, into a highly portable handheld analyzer. Experience a whole new range of motion with easy analysis when you climb up pipelines and into trenches. A tapered nose helps users achieve even more coverage to measure difficult-to-reach areas, such as tight welds, cavities, and small part samples. Increased productivity Discover high-speed performance combined with point and shoot simplicity. With minimal training, the Niton Apollo analyzer is easily operated even by non-technical users. Fast analysis times help increase sample throughput and production. A hot-swap Milwaukee Tool™ battery also keeps users up and running when it's time to replace a low battery. Safe analysis A powerful laser should be operated with the utmost care. The Niton Apollo analyzer comes equipped with three (3) robust safety interlocks to help users reduce the risk of a laser misfire. Tried, tested, and validated by a third party, our interlocks help keep operators safe. Designed to measure chamber pressure, spectral type, and light/ dark conditions, users can securely operate this analyzer with peace of mind.
