Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, will be demonstrating its Thermo Scientific NITON XL3 600 Series analyzer at the American Industrial Hygiene Conference and Expo (AIHce 2008), June 2-4, Minneapolis Convention Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota, Booth #1714. Thermo Fisher Scientific is the world’s leading manufacturer of handheld x-ray fluorescence (XRF) industrial analyzers.

Thermo Scientific NITON Xrf analyzers were designed for the simultaneous multi-element analysis of environmental samples including soils, dust wipes, filter media, thin films, and solid waste. Real-time, on-site results can help users dynamically modify inspection and remediation plans based on hard data, creating efficiencies and saving time and money. Environmental testing applications range from elevated blood lead (EBL) investigations to site assessment; to emergency response; to brownfield remediation; to occupational safety and health (OSHA) compliance – all can directly benefit from the use of a handheld Thermo Scientific NITON XRF analyzer.

“As awareness grows, requirements for the identification and remediation of environmental contamination in residential, commercial, and industrial setting are increasing globally,” said Jon Shein, Thermo Fisher’s director of global marketing for the NITON Analyzers business unit. “Our handheld analyzers provide a solution for site screening, emergency response, work-site clearance testing, and a host of other applications. Customers can benefit through immediate sample results, rapid delineation of contamination boundaries, legally defensible data, and overall improvement in jobsite productivity.”
