What Is The MiniRAE Lite?

The MiniRAE Lite is from a range of products, including the UltraRAE and MiniRAE 3000, which are designed to monitor volatile organic compounds (VOCs) across various industries. The MiniRAE Lite was originally designed for use in the environmental field, but is also suitable for use in construction, the monitoring of in-house solvents and spill response.

The device has a photo-ionization detector (PID) range of 0 to 5,000 parts per million, as well as the added benefits of in-built humidity and temperature compensation. The MiniRAE Lite, like other MiniRAE devices, has a three second response time – the fastest of any device on the market.

The MiniRAE Lite was designed with portability, reliability and ease of use in mind. It is easy to transport the device from location to location without fear of damage, and it comes with a protective green rubber boot that is easily removable for cleaning.

While it does lack some of the features of the ultra high-tech MiniRAE 3000, such as its inability for data logging or a compound library, the Lite version does share some of its most popular elements, such as the 10.6 eV lamp and the built-in flashlight component.

As the MiniRAE Lite was originally designed for use in environments that are less volatile than others, it is really only useful in gaining an accurate measurement of head space readings in both soil and water. It is not recommended that this device be used in industrial settings where the MiniRAE 3000 would be more appropriate.

So, while the MiniRAE Lite is not as high-tech as the 3000 version, the elements that the two devices share make the Lite version perfectly suited for less volatile settings, such as in the environmental industry.

What is miniRAE 3000?

Today, where industrialization is at its peak the possibility of air pollution is also high. Obviously, increasing factories and manufacturing industries are simplifying our life by introducing several useful products, but it has a side effect too. Gas emitting from factories can imbalance the natural air composition and can make it poisonous too. To deal with such problems, miniRAE 3000 has been introduced. 

The MiniRAE 3000 is high tech handheld volatile organic compound (VOC) detector in the market at present. This instrument is equipped with poisonous gas detection feature. It has Photoionization Detector (PID) having extended range of 0 to 15,000 ppm, which makes it a perfect device for industrial hygiene applications like detecting leakage or HazMat.

These are equipped with RF modem that enables user experience real-time data transmissions. It has a base controller which can be installed up to 500 feet or approximately two-miles away from the MiniRAE 3000 detector. As a base station personal computer can be used for a MiniRAE 3000 device. ProRAE Remote is the standard software able of monitor the input of up to 64 remotely-located monitors like MiniRAE 3000, AreaRAE and many other similar devices.

To maintain the hygiene in factories to avoid any health issues of workers, today in many countries government has made use this device mandatory in favor of human rights. The introduction of MiniRAE 3000 as an advance version has controlled the death toll that was quite high few years back due to unexpected poisonous gas leakage in the industries.
