Dear Tarek
There are several things to consider:
1-At an MX beamline the X-ray fluorescence (XRF) scans are usually used
to define good energies for measurement of anomalous data.
While XANES and XRF in general are similar techniques, they are used for
very different applications. This said,
I can not really speak for a home-source setup, but here at the SLS MX
group we run two Pilatus6M (one of which is the first Pilatus ever made)
and one Pilatus2M. In nearly four years since we installed the first one
we never had any hardware issue other than users damaging the case. So
I'd say the
