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)
MiniRAE 3000: Self-Cleaning duty-cycle
Normal operating
pump
Pump during 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)
User Interface
LEDs and flashlight
• User Interface:
– Y/+: tests alarms
– N/– MODE (on)
– Flashlight on/off key

on/off key
Control Buttons
• Y/+ always controls left-hand response & increases
numerical values
• N/- controls right-hand response & moves to next digit
• MODE controls center & returns to previous menu
Start-up: Turning On
• Press and hold
• Release Mode key
• Self-test
• Final display
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
Start-up: Lamp Alarm
• “Lamp” alarm may occur on start-up
• This indicates that PID lamp has failed to light
– Wait 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
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
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.
Hygiene Mode/Basic User

Span Calibration
Zero calibration
• If in fresh air, the M3K can be calibrated,
• The ppbRAE 3000 needs Zero grade air, or a
Zeroing kit
• Press Y/+ to start calibration
Span Calibration
• The menu will return to calibration selection with
Span Calibration highlighted
– Using a Matched-flow regulator, tedlar bag, or 500
cc/min regulator, attach 100ppm Isobutylene for the
MiniRAE 3000 or 10ppm Isobutylene for the ppbRAE
3000
• Press Y/+ to enter Span calibration.
• Press N/- to skip Span calibration and return to
Zero calibration.
• Press MODE to exit and return to the top
calibration menu.
Span Calibration
•
•
•
Turn on your span calibration gas.
Press Y/+ to initiate calibration.
Press N/- to abort calibration
Span Calibration
• Calibration is complete when instrument reads:
Span 1 is done!
Reading = xxx. ppm
• Instrument then returns to Zero Calibration menu
• Select MODE to return to regular Operations
• Instrument will then update settings
Power Off
• Hold
for full 3 seconds
• Audible alarm will beep and unit will countdown
5 seconds
• Release
when you see “Unit Off…”
• Unit will stay on if you release MODE key before
countdown completes
Charging unit
• To Charge unit
– Push instrument down
on charger
– Set back of unit
against back wall of
charger
• To remove unit from
charger
– Push down on
instrument
– Pull unit towards you
Removing battery
• Rubber boot stays on
monitor
• First push down on
tab
• Then pull battery from
instrument
Charging battery
• Use back of charging
station to charge
battery externally
– Push into contacts
– Lay battery flat
• To remove battery
– Push battery towards
station
– Lift battery off of
charging station
Maintenance
• Clean PID Lamp & Sensor
– When display creeps upwards after good zero
– When PID responds to moisture
– When movement of PID results in response on
display
Clean Sensor
Bias Electrode
Sensing Electrode
No dirt build-up to
foster a decrease in
airspace resistance
Dirty Sensor
Bias Electrode
Sensing Electrode
Dirt build-up absorbs water and
breaks down airspace resistance
leading to sensor “leakage” or
moisture response
