Proto's lifetime guarantee means we will continue to support, service, and provide upgrade paths for your instrument for decades to come. Rather than requiring you to buy a brand new system when our product line changes, we are committed to keeping your aging instrument running like new.
At Proto, we always choose the best possible x-ray detection systems for our equipment, which is why all of our powder diffractometers are equipped with photon-counting detectors. These detectors directly capture x-ray photons and convert them into an electrical signal. This direct conversion is advantageous because it yields zero dark noise, zero readout noise, high dynamic range, and excellent signal to noise. Choose from the SPD advanced point detector with true energy discrimination, the DECTRIS MYTHEN2 linear detector for high-speed powder diffraction, the DECTRIS EIGER2 detector for 2D powder diffraction, or the DECTRIS POLLUX detector for versatile 2D powder diffraction applications.
Highest quality data
High-speed strip detector (1D) / Extra wide strip detector (1K)
Large area detection
Optimal energy resolution with ideal active area for powder diffraction. Dual-threshold capabilities for ultimate signal to noise.
Heat samples from room temperature to 500ºC or cool samples to -10ºC in a controlled environment under inert gas such as nitrogen (N2) or argon (Ar).
Investigate material-gas interactions directly at pressures ranging from 10-3 atm (vacuum) up to 30 atm (440 psi).
Variable-speed sample spinner for improving particle statistics of samples with preferred orientation.
Automated sample changers for unattended operation. Each position can be fixed or contain a built-in rotating stage.
