PMI FOR SAFETY INSPECTION
When you need to reliably analyze steels and other alloying materials like aluminum, nickel, and copper in a safety-critical environment, you need an analyzer that rapidly delivers the ultimate analytical performance you can trust the first time.
Spark optical emission spectrometers excel at providing whole chemistry of critical alloy elements at low detection limits that handheld X-ray and LIBS analyzers can’t: carbon, phosphorus, sulfur, boron, arsenic, and tin in low alloy and stainless steels, and nitrogen in duplex steels. That’s why spark OES is the most trusted and widely used method for creating and verifying MTRs (mill testing reports) in the world. Hitachi High-Tech’s PMI-MASTER Smart OES analyzer, which is made in Germany, is lightweight and compact, making it ultra-portable so you can easily take it where you need it, whether at height, in a ditch, material inspection areas outside and inside, or in a laboratory. Our optical emission spectrometers meet the world’s most stringent PMI metallurgical alloy chemistry testing requirements, including API 5L, ASME section IX B& PV, ISO 17025, and A2LA standards.

Why choose a PMI-MASTER Smart?

RESULTS YOU CAN TRUST
Reliable low detection levels are achieved for carbon and phosphorus, sulfur, boron, arsenic, and tin in low-alloy stainless steel and nitrogen in duplex steels. Stable measuring results are obtained even with temperature changes outside.

HOT SAMPLE MEASUREMENTS
Measure elements, including carbon and silicon, reliably from hot surfaces up to 300°C.

LOW OPERATING COSTS
It has minimized argon consumption thanks to concentric electrode shielding argon flow technology that reduces air gaps and optimizes the gas flow.

BUILT TO LAST
Optimized for use in harsh environments with a robust and dust-proof touch screen. Temperature monitoring ensures protection against overheating.

EASY OPERATION
Hold the probe to the sample, push the trigger, and read the result. The alloy grade and complete chemical composition appear within seconds, indicating where concentration limits are exceeded or the material is an outside specification.

DATA MANAGEMENT
It is an easy-to-use and customized report generator. You can share results with remote devices and export them into other software.

LONG BATTERY LIFE
Use either an external power supply or a rechargeable battery, which provides 300 measurements in spark mode and 200 in arc mode before recharging.

GRADE DATABASE INCLUDED
The largest available metals database for fast and easy grade identification is preinstalled, providing more than 12 million records for over 340,000 materials from 69 countries and standards.
