! WARNING !
- Do NOT proceed before reading -
This manual must be carefully read by all individuals
who have or will have the responsibility for using,
maintaining, or servicing this product.
The product will perform as designed only if it is used,
maintained, and serviced in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
CAUTION!!
To reduce the risk of electric shock, turn off power
before removing the monitor cover. Disconnect the
battery before removing sensor module for service.
Never operate the monitor while the cover is removed.
Remove monitor cover and sensor module only in an
area known to be non-hazardous.
The model PGM-7600 equipment is classified as to
intrinsic safety for use in class I, division 1, groups A,
B, C, D, or non-hazardous locations only.
v
Special Notes
-1-
When the MiniRAE 2000 Monitor is taken out from the
transport case and turned on for the first time, there
may be some residual organic or inorganic vapor
trapped inside the detector chamber. The initial PID
sensor reading may indicate a few ppm. Enter an area
known to be free of any organic vapor and turn on the
monitor. After running for several minutes, the
residual vapor in the detector chamber will be cleared
and the reading should return to zero.
-2-
The battery of the MiniRAE 2000 monitor will
discharge slowly even if it is turned off. If the monitor
has not been charged for 5-7 days, the battery voltage
will be low. Therefore, it is a good practice to always
charge the monitor before using it. It is also
recommended to fully charge the monitor FOR AT
LEAST 10 HOURS before first use. See Section 7 for
more information on battery charging and
replacement.
STATIC HAZARD:
Clean only with damp cloth.
DANGER RISQUE D'ORIGINE
ELECTROSTATIQUE:
Nettoyer uniquement avec un chiffon humide.
vi
CAUTION:
For safety reasons this equipment must be operated
and serviced by qualified personnel only. Read and
understand instruction manual completely before
operating or servicing.
ATTENTION:
Pour des raisons de sécurité, cet équipment doit être
utilisé, entretenu et réparé uniquement par un
personnel qualifié. Étudier le manuel d’instructions en
entier avant d’utiliser, d’entretenir ou de réparer
l’équipement.
WARNINGS:
Use only RAE Systems battery packs, part nos. 012-
3050, 012-3051 or 012-3052. This instrument has not
been tested in an explosive gas/air atmosphere having
an oxygen concentration greater than 21%.
Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety.
Recharge batteries only in non-hazardous locations.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Utiliser seulement l'ensemble de batterie RAE Systems,
la reference 012-3050, 012-3051 au 012-3052. Cet
instrument n’a pas été essayé dans une atmosphère de
gaz/air explosive ayant une concentration d’oxygène
plus élevée que 21%. La substitution de composants
peut compromettre la sécurité intrinsique. Ne charger
les batteries que dans emplacements désignés non-
dangereuse.
vii
CAUTION WARNINGS:
The calibration of all newly purchased RAE Systems
instruments should be tested by exposing the sensor(s)
to known concentration calibration gas before the
instrument is put into service.
For maximum safety, the accuracy of the MiniRAE
2000 should be checked by exposing it to a known
concentration calibration gas before each day’s use.
AVERTISSEMENT:
La calibration de toute instruments de RAE Systems
doivent être testé en exposant l’instrument a une
concentration de gaz connue par une procédure
diétalonnage avant de mettre en service l’instrument
pour la première fois.
Pour une securite maximale, la sensibilité du
MiniRAE 2000 doit être verifier en exposant
l’instrument a une concentration de gaz connue par
une procédure diétalonnage avant chaque utilisation
journalière.
GENERAL INFORMATION
1-1
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
MiniRAE 2000 Portable VOC Monitor (Model PGM
7600) is a compact monitor designed as a broadband VOC
gas monitor and datalogger for work in hazardous
environments. It monitors Volatile Organic Compounds
(VOC) using a Photo-Ionization Detector (PID) with a 9.8
eV, 10.6 eV, or 11.7 eV gas discharge lamp. Features are:
•Lightweight and Compact
-Compact, light weight (19 oz.) and rugged design
-Built-in sample draw pump
•Dependable and Accurate
-Up to 10 hours of continuous monitoring with
rechargeable battery pack
- Designed to continuously monitor VOC vapor at ppm
levels
•User Friendly
-Preset alarm thresholds for STEL, TWA, low and high
level peak values. Audio buzzer and flashing LED
display are activated when the limits are exceeded.
•Datalogging Capabilities
-15,000 point datalogging storage capacity for data
download to PC
MiniRAE 2000 consists of a PID with associated
microcomputer and electronic circuit. The unit is housed
in a rugged ABS + PC case with a backlit 1 line by 8
character dot matrix LCD and 3 keys to provide easy user
interface.
