MiniRAE 3000: Self-Cleaning
Patented RAE Systems Breakthrough!
• Lamp runs for 4 hours during charging• Generates small amounts of ozone to scrub
sensor and lamp clean• Without probe user will see lamp glow purple
during charging• Increases lamp life• Drastically increases PID stability and reduces
requirement for cleaning (Refer to TN-165)
![Page 5: Using the MiniRAE 3000. MiniRAE 3000 & ppbRAE 3000 MiniRAE 3000 (Model Number PGM7320) LampRangeResolution 10.6 eV0.1 ppm to 15,000 ppm 0.1 ppm 9.8 eV0.1](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102906/56649c725503460f949246c1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
MiniRAE 3000: Self-Cleaning duty-cycle
• Normal operation, pump shows inflow and outflow• Duty-cycle, pump shows inflow and pump stopped• With pump stopped, lamp generates small amounts of ozone which
helps to scrub sensor and lamp clean• Pump starts, dirt is removed from lamp• Drastically increases PID stability and reduces requirement for
cleaning (Refer to TN-165)

Start-up: Turning On
• Press and hold
• Release Mode key
• Self-test
• Final display
![Page 9: Using the MiniRAE 3000. MiniRAE 3000 & ppbRAE 3000 MiniRAE 3000 (Model Number PGM7320) LampRangeResolution 10.6 eV0.1 ppm to 15,000 ppm 0.1 ppm 9.8 eV0.1](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102906/56649c725503460f949246c1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Start-up: Programmable Zero calibration
• Unit performs Zero calibration after warm-up• “apply zero gas…” • If in fresh air, the M3K can be calibrated,• The ppbRAE 3000 needs Zero grade air, or a
Zeroing kit
![Page 10: Using the MiniRAE 3000. MiniRAE 3000 & ppbRAE 3000 MiniRAE 3000 (Model Number PGM7320) LampRangeResolution 10.6 eV0.1 ppm to 15,000 ppm 0.1 ppm 9.8 eV0.1](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102906/56649c725503460f949246c1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Start-up: Lamp Alarm
• “Lamp” alarm may occur on start-up• This indicates that PID lamp has failed to light
– Wait 1-2 minutesWait 1-2 minutes
• If “Lamp” message remains, turn off MiniRAE 3000 and restart– “Lamp” alarm clears and MiniRAE 3000 is ready for use
• If after restart, “Lamp” message remains, the PID needs service
![Page 11: Using the MiniRAE 3000. MiniRAE 3000 & ppbRAE 3000 MiniRAE 3000 (Model Number PGM7320) LampRangeResolution 10.6 eV0.1 ppm to 15,000 ppm 0.1 ppm 9.8 eV0.1](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102906/56649c725503460f949246c1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Start-up: Humidity Check
• It is important to check if the instrument responds to moisture
1. Cup hand over inlet or breathe into inlet for 10-20 seconds
2. Do not block flow• If M2K reads >2 ppm or
ppbRAE reads >500 ppb, then the sensor needs cleaning
![Page 12: Using the MiniRAE 3000. MiniRAE 3000 & ppbRAE 3000 MiniRAE 3000 (Model Number PGM7320) LampRangeResolution 10.6 eV0.1 ppm to 15,000 ppm 0.1 ppm 9.8 eV0.1](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102906/56649c725503460f949246c1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Hygiene/Search Mode
Two main operating modes: • Hygiene Mode: The factory default
mode. After warm-up the meter samples continuously
• Search Mode: After warm-up the pump shuts off and “Ready…” is displayed.
