Lamp output
 
The number of gases a PID can detectable directly relates to the Electron Voltage (eV) output of the PID 
lamp being used, the higher the eV level the more gases can be detected. In the standard PhoCheck Tiger 
the 10.6eV lamp allows the detection of over 450 gases. The Tiger Select still uses a 10.6 eV lamp however 
an additional 10.0 eV glass filter is fitted in to the electrode stack which limits the amount of detectable gases 
down to 115. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Important 
Always recalibrate the Tiger Select after servicing, particularly if the lamp or electrode stack is cleaned or 
replaced
