Here’s how an XRF gold tester works:

Non-Destructive Testing: One of the key advantages of an XRF gold tester is that it can perform non-destructive testing. It means that the device can analyze the gold without causing any damage to the item being tested. This is particularly useful when dealing with valuable or sentimental jewelry or other gold objects.

X-ray Excitation: The XRF gold tester uses X-ray radiation to excite the atoms in the gold sample. When the X-rays hit the gold, they cause the electrons in the atoms to move to higher energy levels.

Overall, an XRF gold tester provides a quick and reliable method for assessing the purity of gold items without damaging them. It’s commonly used by jewelers, pawnshops, and gold buyers to ensure the quality and authenticity of gold jewelry, coins, and other gold objects.
