/EINPresswire.com/ -- TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Mar 23, 2017) - Eurocontrol Technics Group Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EUO)(OTCQB:EUCTF) ("Eurocontrol" or the "Company"), a Canadian public company specializing in the acquisition, development and commercialization of innovative test and measurement technologies for industry with application systems focused on the energy security, semiconductor and precision farming sectors, is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary Xenemetrix Ltd. ("Xenemetrix") will be presenting its diverse lines of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) instrumentation at the 2017 ACS Spring Conference being held April 3^rd through April 6^th at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco, California.

American Chemical Society (ACS) National Meetings provide researchers with current scientific, professional and product information news through various poster sessions, exhibitions, seminars and networking events and the theme for the ACS Spring Conference is "Advanced Materials, Technologies, Systems and Processes". Xenemetrix will be featuring its cutting edge X-ray analytical instrumentation at booth 1706.

Analytical and industrial instrumentation from Xenemetrix range from portable field or at-line instrumentation, benchtop units ranging in performance to floor standing advanced capability laboratory instrumentation. Among the instruments on display at the event will be the Xenemetrix P- Metrix portable analyzer. The P-Metrix Portable ED-XRF analyzer is a compact ED-XRF system that is designed to produce lab quality results in the field or at-line. Also being featured at the convention will be X-Calibur, Xenemetrix's powerful 50kV, 50W direct excitation system that has a selection of Primary Beam Filters / Collimators to enhance performance and for the ultimate in sensitivity and compact size, Xenemetrix will feature its Genius IF, a system that provides monochromatic excitation using the Xenemetrix WAG geometry secondary targets that provides sub ppm detection limits for a wide range of elements - features that push back the frontiers of performance providing a very sensitive analytical tool at a very affordable price point.

Bruce Rowlands, Chief Executive Officer stated, "Our participation of the ACS convention in San Francisco will provide a great opportunity to showcase Xenemetrix's leading edge product line to the broader scientific community. Like Isranalytical, we anticipate that the Xenemetrix product line will be well received."
