Mercury CCD system

The Rigaku Mercury 2 CCD system provide reliable and accurate single crystal X-ray diffraction systems for small molecule data collection and structural determination. A system includes a compact Mercury CCD detector, a flexible AFC three or four-axis goniometer, a reliable sealed tube or rotating anode generator, optics, and all the software and peripherals required to fully integrate the system. 

Rigaku designs and manufactures all of the major components of the Mercury 2 CCD system and fully integrates them into a complete X-ray diffraction system. Rigaku's own CCD manufacturing facility ensures incorporation of the latest advances into Rigaku detectors and guarantees our ability to provide long term support. 

When tomorrow's funding relies on today's results, a sensitive, fast, accurate, versatile and reliable X-ray system is essential. The Mercury 2 CCD system fulfills all of these requirements and is backed by Rigaku technical expertise and support to ensure that you get the results you need when you need them.
