Olympus (Innov-X) DELTA Premium DP-2000 Handheld XRF Analyzer
The DELTA Premium DP-2000 is a handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer from the Innov-X DELTA line which Olympus acquired and later sold under the Evident name. The Premium range pairs a 4 W X-ray tube with a large area silicon drift detector (SDD) so it delivers fast results and good light element performance. It is used for alloy identification, scrap sorting, mining and exploration and environmental screening where speed and analytical quality matter.
Key Features DELTA Premium DP-2000
- 4 W X-ray tube: the Premium range offers anode options such as Rh, Ag, Au, or Ta, with up to 200 µA tube current, depending on the model
- Large-area silicon drift detector (SDD): fast measurement times and strong light element analysis
- Wide analytical range: magnesium and up with Rh or Ag anode tubes and aluminum and up with Ta or Au anode tubes
- Multiple analysis modes: Alloy Plus for metals, with Soil, Mining Plus, and Geochem modes available on suitable configurations
- Fast, repeatable results: quick tests suited to high throughput sorting and screening
- Optional camera and collimator: an integrated camera lets you see and record the sample position and a collimator narrows the beam to a spot as small as about 3 mm
- QVGA touch screen: a backlit sunlight readable display with a simple interface
- Data storage and connectivity: 1 GB microSD card with USB and Bluetooth
- Hot-swappable lithium-ion battery: keeps the analyzer running through a shift
- Rugged build: an operating range of -10 °C to 50 °C and a design for harsh field conditions
- Optional docking station: charges the battery, stores the analyzer, and runs calibration checks
Typical Applications
- Positive material identification (PMI) and alloy grade verification
- Scrap metal sorting and recycling
- Mining exploration and grade control
- Soil and environmental contamination screening
- Light metals identification, including aluminum and magnesium alloys
- Quality assurance in fabrication and incoming inspection
Why Choose It
The DELTA Premium DP-2000 offers an SDD based 4 W analyzer in a rugged package so it handles light elements and difficult grade separations that cheaper Si-PIN models struggle with. Fast, repeatable readings make it productive in busy yards and plants.
