Laboratory-quality Analysis with
the Push of a Button
Throughout the precious metal life cycle
– from refining to recycling – the goal is
always to ensure quality, control costs,
and achieve accurate purity analysis.
With the high price of gold and other
precious metals, even a small variation in
composition accuracy can be costly.

Thermo Scientific Niton DXL precious metal analyzers provide you
with many distinct advantages:
•t Easier, faster, more accurate than nitric acid test methods
•t Faster, more comprehensive analysis than fire assay, with comparable
accuracy
•t Simultaneous analysis of all precious metals as well as many other common
alloying elements

Designed specifically for countertop use
in retail environments, yet portable and
rugged for use in remote testing locations,
the Thermo Scientific Niton DXL x-ray
fluorescence (XRF) precious metal analyzer
delivers fast, reliable results…and
unlike more traditional testing methods,
it is completely nondestructive. These
analyzers provide you with the ideal
method to test the purity and chemistry
of all precious metals, with unmatched
simplicity, performance, features, and
portability. And with our patent-pending
Thermo Scientific Au/gold Detection &
Identification Technology (AuDIT™), it can
provide instant detection of gold plating
with the simple push of a button.
Its compact design and AC or batterypowered operation allow easy movement
within the shop or to remote locations.
It’s your personal field laboratory for
dependable elemental analysis that
delivers a real competitive edge.
The Instrument of Choice
Just a few seconds – that’s all it takes to
measure the exact precious metal content
in jewelry, coins, and other valuable
products using the Niton® DXL precious
metal analyzer. Give up the harsh acids and
take advantage of the following benefits:

•t Exceptionally fast, easy to use – t
Just close the lid and push a button.
See results in seconds on a bright,
touch-screen color display. No need to
use any harsh chemicals or acids that
can burn your fingers, ruin clothing, and
damage countertops. Further, an optional
small‑spot focus allows isolation and
testing of small components, while
the built-in CCD camera makes precise
sample positioning effortless.
•t Accurate and precise – Its fire assay
comparable results help prevent losses
due to the purchase of under-karated and
counterfeit material.
•t Fit, form, function – Engineered with
retail environments in mind, Niton DXL
precious metal analyzers ship from the
factory fully calibrated and ready to use
upon arrival at your site. The closedbeam design prevents x-ray exposure
to customers and operators, and the
front and rear windows reveal an LEDilluminated sample chamber, which
ensures that items undergoing analysis
never leave the customer’s sight.
•t Gold-plate detection – AuDIT, a
proprietary technology developed for,
and only available on Thermo Scientific
portable XRF analyzers, helps you meet
the challenge of identifying gold-plated
items…vermeil (gold-plated silver), goldplated copper, steel, tungsten, and any
other non-gold substrate.
•t Nondestructive – Unlike destructive
testing methods, such as acid and fire
assay, tested samples remain intact t
and undamaged.
