About Bruker S1 TITAN:
- Quickly and accurately report the elemental analysis of your sample.
- Utilises the Bruker TITAN Detector Shield™ The ultimate defence against punctured detectors
- Bruker’s patented SharpBeam™ Optimised Geometry to improve measurement precision, and detection limits, reducing power requirements to increase battery life
- Analyse with ease with a pXRF designed for “point and shoot”
- The ergonomic pistol grip and trigger are designed for all-day use
- Counted as one of the lightest tube based XRF analysers on the market
- Sealed against moisture and dust, it is fit for the field
- See in all lighting conditions thanks to the colour touchscreen LCD
Available calibrations are as diverse as the list of applications, but if you do not find a calibration to match your application, PSS can customize a calibration to perfectly fit your requirements. See our custom calibrations here.
Or, you can purchase your own S1 TITAN. Review extra features and benefits here.
The TITAN 800 model is our highest specification model in our rental fleet. We recommend this model for exploration and mining alloys or environmental analysis where you are looking for sensitivity to light elements. Specifically, this model excels at targeting the light elements for custom calibrations.

What does XRF analyse?
The portable X-ray Fluorescence (pXRF) technique generates indicative element concentrations, through the use of a generic calibration setup. By using the pXRF with the accompaniment of a thorough QAQC procedure, you will be able to acquire a comprehensive element and concentration range that is ideal for:
- Investigating the composition of most materials (e.g., soil samples, drill pulps and grade control samples)
- Screen large volumes of samples, quickly and efficiently
- Receive reliable instant results onsite (e.g., for a wide range of trace and ore grade elements)
- Analyse with minimal sample preparation
If you are unsure about which instrument and calibration best suits your application, our technical staff are more than happy to provide specialised knowledge to make sure you are provided with a unit that best fits your application.
Requirements of hiring an XRF
As a portable XRF instrument emits radiation all intended users of the portable XRF must have a user licence prior to hiring with PSS.
PSS are accredited in training and issuing user licences. These are obtained by completing the radiation safety training in the use of portable XRFs. An alternative training option for obtaining the licence for most states and territories is our on demand option. A version of the course is also offered for those hiring from New Zealand to obtain a user licence to meet NZ user licence requirements.
