The analyzer operation principle is based on the excitation of atomic fluorescence radiation of substance sample by X-ray tube radiation. Fluorescence emission can be decomposed in spectrum by Cauchois method.
Fluorescence radiation focused by the analyzing crystal of the determined element and the line of standard are allocated onto the Rowland circle. Then they are recorded by turns by the X-ray detector. Intensity of fluorescence radiation registered of a certain wavelength is directly proportional to the mass fraction of a chemical element in the substance tested.
