SA-2000

This SA-2000 surface analyzer brings the advanced capabilities of atomic emission spectroscopy to the production control environment for quantitative depth profiling. The SA-2000 is designed for determining the composition of conductive and non-conductive materials as a function of depth with a measurement range to 500 microns (best at 10 nm to 50 microns). It is an extremely user-friendly system and its software is hosted in a Microsoft® Windows® environment. Ideal for the analysis of surface-treated materials, it will perform bulk (24 elements nominal) as well as quantitative depth profile analysis.
