Description

SciAps Z-903 LIBS Analyzer

SciAps Z-903 LIBS Analyzer accomplishes what no other portable analyzer has done. It’s a handheld analyzer that measures every element in the periodic table of the elements – from H to U.

It uses the same powerful laser as SciAps other Z-900 models, but with an extended spectrometer range from 190 nm out to 950 nm.

The extended range allows emission lines from elements H, F, N, O, Br, Cl, Rb, Cs and S to be measured. These lines cannot be measured with the other Z-900 series analyzers.
There are other benefits to the extended range. For example, it measures a more sensitive line for lithium near 675 nm to achieve limits of detection in the 2-5 ppm range.
It also measures a more sensitive, and interference-free line for potassium (K). The more traditional potassium lines have heavy iron interference, whereas the line used by the Z-903 is free of such interference.

Power

On board rechargeable Li-ion battery, rechargeable inside device or with external charger, AC power.

In use globally

The Z-903 is most widely used for mineral exploration including lithium in both hard rock and brines. It is also used in forensics, authentication, archeology and oil/gas exploration due to the wide elemental range.

Complete user control

The laser strike pattern, cleaning shots, spectrometer settings are all under user control. The analyzer includes advanced software for modifying all settings, comparing spectral data, and for generating quantitative calibration curves. The Z-903 features the same Android OS and intuitive App-driven software as all other SciAps models.

Connectivity

Built on Google’s Android platform for real-time data exporting, including built-in WiFi (IEEE 802.11b/g/n), Bluetooth (BR/EDR+BLE), GPS and USB-C to connect to virtually any information management system.

GeoChem Pro Mode

This application, available as an option, allows the Z-903 portable LIBS analyzer to have the unique ability to perform basic elemental mapping in the field.

In the example below, the LIBS elemental distribution mapping for Iron shows an excellent correlation with the XFM data, the use of third party data processing software such as Reflex ioGAS allows rapid processing of the information on field.
