Ultim® Max

Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS)

Ultim Max is the next generation of Silicon Drift Detectors (SDD).

Ultim Max EDS detectors use high-end technology to deliver unparalleled speed and sensitivity without compromising on accuracy or quality. This range of detectors combines the largest sensor sizes (up to 170 mm2) with Extreme electronics to deliver remarkable performance.

The large SDD sensors of Ultim Max allows up to 17x more data to be collected in the same time with no loss of accuracy. Whether you want to map larger areas, have better statistics in each data point, collect data much faster, or investigate the smallest nano-structures, Ultim Max is the ultimate solution for X-ray analysis in the SEM.

All Ultim Max detectors can be easily and rapidly inserted when needed and retracted when not in use thanks to an integrated motorised slide.
