2) Alkaline Battery Holder
An alkaline battery holder is supplied with each MiniRAE
2000. It accepts four AA size alkaline batteries and can be
used in place of the Ni-MH or Ni-Cd battery pack to
provide approximately 12-14 hours of operation. The
adapter is intended to be used in emergency situations
when there is no time to charge the Ni-Cd or Ni-MH
battery pack.
To install the adapter, remove the cover of the battery
compartment. Remove the Ni-Cd or Ni-MH battery pack
from the battery compartment and replace with the alkaline
battery adapter. Replace the battery compartment cover.
The internal charging circuit is designed to prevent damage
to alkaline batteries and the charging circuit when alkaline
batteries are installed inside the monitor.
Note
:
The AA Alkaline battery adapter supplied by RAE
Systems Inc. is intrinsically safe!
3) Water Trap Filter
The water trap filter is made of PTFE (Teflon
) membrane
with a 0.45 micron pore size to prevent water from being
sucked into the sensor manifold, which would cause
extensive damage to the monitor. It will also remove any
dust and other particles from entering the monitor and
prolong the operating life of the sensor. To install the
water trap, simply insert it to the front of the inlet tube of
the MiniRAE 2000 monitor.
