Abstract	A system for the measurement of fluorescence EXAFS using 6 NaI scintillation detectors has been commissioned on the Wiggler line of the Daresbury Synchrotron Radiation Source (SRS). Results at the copper and molybdenum K-edges are presented to illustrate the performance of the detectors. The count rate limitations arising from the dead time of the detectors and from the electronics have been investigated. A procedure is described for selecting the optimum thickness of (Z-1) or (Z-2) filter used to reduce the amount of scattered radiation reaching the detector. Future improvements are discussed.
