Overview
Go hands-on with XRF analyzers. Learn how to set up, calibrate and run tests on catalytic converters, interpret PPM results for Platinum, Palladium and Rhodium, and convert those readings into accurate ZAR payouts using current refiner recovery rates.
At Stratton, we test every single converter before we price it — no exceptions. We'll teach you exactly how and why we do it, so you can verify any offer you receive and understand the science behind the number. Transparency is the foundation of trust, and this course is our way of making the process fully open to you.
