Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about choosing the right spectrometer for your application.
How do I know which type of spectrometer is right for me?
It depends on your application. OES (Optical Emission Spectrometry) is ideal for full chemical analysis including carbon, nitrogen, and trace elements. XRF is better for non-destructive sorting and alloy identification. LIBS offers rapid handheld analysis without radiation. Our selection guide above helps you narrow down the best match.
Can I try an instrument before purchasing?
Yes — Verichek offers trial and demonstration programs for most instruments in our lineup. Contact us to arrange an on-site demo or send us your samples for a complimentary analysis at our lab in Pittsburgh, PA.
What’s the difference between OES, XRF, and LIBS?
OES uses a spark to excite a sample and measures emitted light — it’s the gold standard for precise lab analysis including carbon. XRF uses X-rays for non-destructive analysis and is great for sorting and PMI. LIBS uses a laser pulse and requires no radiation license, making it ideal for restricted environments.
Do you offer financing or leasing options?
Yes, we work with several financing partners to offer competitive lease and purchase options. Whether you need a single handheld analyzer or a full laboratory setup, we can tailor a payment plan to fit your budget. Contact our sales team for a customized quote.
What kind of support comes with an instrument purchase?
Every instrument purchase from Verichek includes installation, operator training, and a warranty period. We also offer ongoing calibration services, preventive maintenance contracts, and emergency repair support to keep your equipment running at peak performance.
