The Olympus Vanta Element-S is a rugged handheld XRF analyzer configured with a dedicated Coatings/Thickness Mode—ideal for measuring multi-layer coatings, plating thickness, and verifying substrate material in manufacturing, metal fabrication, aerospace, automotive, and inspection workflows.

Whether you’re inspecting plated parts, anodized surfaces, welded assemblies, cast components, or incoming shipments, the Vanta Element-S gives you the speed, accuracy and portability you need for production-line or on-site QA/QC.

Why Choose the Vanta Element-S for Coatings & Thickness Measurement

• Equipped with a Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) for high sensitivity, finer resolution and better detection of thin coatings and substrate metals.
• Supports a dedicated coatings/plate mode (elemental excitation and thickness algorithms) – enabling non-destructive measurement of plating, anodize, paint, galvanize, Ni/Cr/Zn layers.
• Rugged design for the factory or field: IP55 rated, MIL-STD-810G drop tested, and built to withstand harsh manufacturing/fabrication environments.
• Data export: instantly generate reports (PDF, CSV), color-coded pass/fail, ideal for compliance with quality standards and traceability.

Rental Applications

• Measurement of plating thickness: nickel, chrome, zinc, tin, gold on components, fasteners, stamped parts.
• Multi-layer coating systems: e.g., zinc + clear, primer + paint + top coat, anodized aluminum + seal.
• Substrate verification beneath coatings: confirm base metals (steel, aluminum, magnesium) in assemblies.
• Incoming inspection and line monitoring: batch screening, spot checks, post‐weld/coating inspection.
• Quality assurance for automotive, aerospace, heavy fabrication, marine, and industrial manufacturing.
