CEMBLES® Pre-Assembled
XRF Sample Cups
Enhance your lab's sample preparation process while saving TIME & MONEY! CEMBLES® are custom made to your specifications & pre-assembled for your convenience.
Drift Monitors
Maintain your instrument’s optimum performance over the full course of its lifespan, using drift monitors. Designed as reliable calibration standards for X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry calibration, our drift monitors can detect minute mechanical drifting to ensure the ongoing reliability of your results.
See table below for types of Drift Monitors and Elements.
Additional types and sizes available upon request.

Better Analysis
Because of its efficiency, fusion is often the method of choice for preparing a wide range of samples for analysis by X-ray fluorescence (XRF).
To maintain accurate and consistent results, it is prudent to use Drift Monitors for correction of aging x-ray tubes and sample preparation variances.
Monitor Composition
The monitors are manufactured as stable fortified glass discs that are used to correct for day to day drift in the x-ray output. It is intensities that matter.
These are not intended as primary standards but are normally used for XRF calibration drift. Each type of monitor has element compositions that are appropriate for the mineral type. Trace element intensities are adjusted to be well above background.
