Xenemetrix Continues to Innovate in Its EDXRF Analyzers

Adding RoHS Test Solution Capabilities Will Make Analyzers More Versatile


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Sept. 28, 2011) -

NOT FOR RELEASE IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES.

Eurocontrol Technics Group Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EUO), a company specializing in the development of authentication, certification and energy security technologies, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Xenemetrix Ltd. ("Xenemetrix"), today announced that it will partner with Eastern Applied Research ("Eastern Applied") in order to develop a more advanced Restriction on Hazardous Substance ("RoHS") test solution for its Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence ("EDXRF") analyzer.

The versatile new system will enable improved RoHS testing as well as qualitative and quantitative analysis of elements from Fluorine through Fermium. Customers will benefit by using one system for materials analysis as well as RoHS testing. Customers who need both RoHS testing and accurate materials analysis will benefit by purchasing one system. Xenemetrix anticipates a growth in sales in the USA by 20 systems per year once the versatile EDXRF is available.

Xenemetrix is partnering with its exclusive North American distributor, Eastern Applied (see press release dated April 5, 2011) to co-develop the new EDXRF spectrometer that will meet the requirements of RoHS compliance testing needs and appeal to a potentially broader range of users, such as automotive companies and electronics manufacturers.

RoHS test solutions are used to detect the levels of hazardous materials, such as lead, in a variety of products. Many countries, including those that are part of the European Union, have strict limits or prohibit the use of hazardous materials in certain products, such as electronics. Automotive companies and electronics manufacturers use RoHS test solutions on their products before exporting them to counties with RoHS regulations in place.

"By further developing its product line, Xenemetrix is able to increase its presence in the elemental analysis market," commented Bruce Rowlands, President and CEO of Eurocontrol Technics Group.

"Our Company is dedicated to being at the forefront of elemental analysis technologies," said Doron Reinis CEO of Xenemetrix. "This additional improvement will make our analyzer one of the best available in the market," added Doron Reinis.

The newest EDXRF analyzer will be a revision of the extremely popular RoHS Vision series. A variety of hardware and software adjustments will be made to exceed the lower detection limits required by RoHS regulations and offer a solution to a number of additional material analysis requirements. This project has been made a priority for the Research & Development team at Xenemetrix and the new system expected to role-out in mid October 2011.

Eurocontrol's other wholly owned subsidiary, Global Fluids International S.A. ("GFI") specializes in the development of marking and detection systems for the oil industry. GFI produces the marking system and Xenemetrix's EDXRF analyzers are the detection protocol used to detect the presence of the markers in hydrocarbons.
