This regulation has significantly changed the scope of evaluation of elements and primary aromatic amines and the way of evaluation of articles for repeated use – HERE you can find more information. ITC labs are already prepared to test and evaluate the articles according to new rules.

MORE INFORMATION

The ITC Zlín laboratories put into operation a new X-ray fluorescence spectrometer RIGAKU NEX DE VS.

The instrument is designed for elemental analysis in solid and liquid matrices in the sodium-uranium range and is used mainly for the prove of the presence of heavy metals in products.

Heavy metals, such as lead, cadmium, arsenic, mercury and similar, are limited by various legislations, such as REACH, RoHS (electrical products), as well as these elements are limited in food contact products and toys.

The new spectrometer replaced old spectrometer Oxford Instruments ED2000Ag from 1998, which served a respectable 22 years.

For requirements for element analyses, such as RoHS, defectoscopy, alloy analyzes, etc. please feel free to contact us

Analytical laboratory has recently purchased new ICP spectrometer Agilent 5800. The spectrometer is intended for determination of elements in water solutions, leachates and mineralisates. It is used mainly for evaluation of food-contact materials, products for children, material analysis of plastics, rubbers and metals. Spectrometer can be also used for determination of elements, which are limited in electro-products by RoHS 3 directive. High sensitivity enable evaluation of products according to many national and European legislations.  

ITC Zlín Laboratory has newly accredited tests regarding to the currently highly requested testing of personal protective equipment and medical devices, especially:

- protective clothing
- medical face masks
- protective shields
