The World’s Most Advanced Handheld PID for VOC Detection
The PhoCheck Tiger, with miniPID technology, is one of the most advanced handheld photoionisation detectors on the market for volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Ion Science’s patented Fence Electrode Technology is independently verified as the best-performing PID for fast response and accurate readings, while minimising humidity and contamination effects.
A dynamic detection range of 1 ppb to 20,000 ppm (gas dependent) offers the widest range available, with readings displayed as ppm or mg/m3. The instrument responds in less than two seconds, is ready to use straight out of the box and is pre-programmed with response factors for over 450 gases.
Long-life, field-replaceable Li-Ion batteries deliver up to 30 hours of use and can be changed safely even in hazardous areas. Intrinsically safe to European, Canadian and US approvals, with a rugged IP65 design and removable rubber boot, the Tiger is a fully upgradeable instrument with selectable data logging, health and safety and ppb options.
