The KT-100S operates with the new LIBS-technology (Laser Induced
Breakdown Spectroscopy) and is worldwide the first system that meets the
toughest test criteria for military equipment (MIL-STD 810G) and IP54.
During these tests, the device is exposed to extreme vibrations, dust,
cold and heat. The device also has to resist shock-like hits as well as
26 falls from a height of 90 cm. Due to the IP54 classification, it can
also operate in rain. The KT-100S is extremely tough and its battery
life of over 10 hours makes it exceptionally enduring.
The LIBS-technology is easy and can be used by everyone after a short
instruction. The class 3B laser is not subject to approval; the company
concerned just has to present proof that a laser protection officer is
on-site.
Working with the KT-100S is very pleasant and fatigue-free
for it is very small and light. The combination of touch screen and real
keys allows for an unrestricted use even in the rain, with gloves or
greasy hands. Dirt or coatings can be removed via the switchable Drill
Down-function. Thereby, often there will be no need for time-consuming
grinding. Typical areas of application are aluminium alloys, V2/V4, NCT
and chromium steel, titanium and nickel alloys, brass, bronze and red
brass during the recycle of metals and the fast material verification
testing during incoming goods inspection. All alloys are detected within
2 – 3 seconds.
