• X-ray Diffractometer Device (XRD): Rigaku D/Max-2200/PC Brand XRD Device has 200 VAC, Cu sourced X-ray tube. The material is determined by comparing it with approximately 120,000 materials with PDF card numbers in the Jade 7 software program installed on the computer system connected to the device.
• Cooling Unit: Thermo Neslab Merlin M 100 model water cooler unit that controls sudden temperature changes of the X-ray tube.
• Generator Unit: It is the IMELSAN brand generator system that allows time to shut down the device safely in case of sudden power cuts.
