G Series XRF
The G Series’ two most distinctive features are precision video imaging, and 'bottom-up' measurement using a motorized Z-axis with laser-based auto-focus. The latter is a feature unique to Bowman. An available manual XY stage with 1.5 X 1.5' travel facilitates easy positioning of small and large parts. The chamber is relatively small when compared to other models like the B Series. The smaller chamber and footprint is well suited for jewelry and other precious metal analysis applications, and components such as connectors and fasteners.
The standard configuration includes a single fixed collimator and a fixed focus camera. An SDD detector is included, along with our long-life micro-focus x-ray tube. As with all Bowman benchtop XRFs, instruments can be upgraded to include multiple collimators or a variable focal camera.

The G Series XRF is ideal for labs and production lines, particularly where users have:
- Limited benchtop space
- Budget limitations
- A preference for 'bottom-up' operation with a motorized Z axis
- The need to position smaller samples quickly and easily
- The need to comply with IPC-4552, 4553, 4554 and 4556
- ASTM B568 and ISO 3497
- The desire to upgrade an old XRF's performance and efficiency – and get a generous trade-in bonus!
- The need for RoHS compliance
