..Not sure if this is possible/practical.. At my place of work we have a X-ray fluorescence unit. We use it mainly for testing the thickness of various electroplated deposits. We also have a small vial which we can fill with plating sol'n... x-ray it, and it will give us the concentration of metal in the particular plating bath tested. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if an xrf unit would be capable of test chlorine level in pool water sample. It only takes a min or two to test the level with the TFT test kit, but it would be nice to verify the test kit results if possible.
possible alternate method of testing chlorine level

I don't think that will work. X-ray fluorescence is best at determining elemental concentrations. We need to distinguish various forms of chlorine from each other, which I don't think you can do that way.
