ThermoARLabs was established in South Afica in 1970, supplying instrumentation to laboratories in various applications. These instruments are supported by a well trained service team boasting a total of 173 man-years' experience.
The instrumentation on offer from ThermoARLabs includes AA, FT-IR, Fusion Machines, ICP, ICP MS, OES, XRF and XRD.
On the cover and in the Front Cover Story on page 4, we feature two products: the ARL Optim 'X and the ARL Advant 'X series. Both these instruments are Wavelength Dispersive XRF techniques that are well suited for analysis in petrochemical laboratories.
Depending on application requirements, these instruments can, with their unique features, be configured for optimum price/performance ratio.
The Optim 'X is a 50 W WDX instrument whereas the ARL Advant 'X series is available in the following power ratings: 600 W, 3,6kW or, for maximum performance, 4,2 kW.
All instruments are supported by a ThermoARLabs CarePlan, which can also be configured to your laboratory requirements. Whether you are running only eight hours per day or on a continual 24/7 operation, ThermoARLabs can give you the backup service you require.
