Mini Monitor 900 Series Geiger Counters and Ratemeters, designed and manufactured in the UK by Mini Instruments Ltd (now owned by Thermo Electron/Scientific, also sold under Morgan & Fisher brand names) are amongst the most highly-respected radiation and monitoring instruments in use today.
Over the years Mini Monitor 900s have earned an excellent reputation for reliability, performance, versatility, ease of use and value for money. The 900 series continues to be a popular choice in education, research, medicine, industry and amongst environmentalists and enthusiasts.

SEE BELOW FOR OUR CURRENT STOCK BUT IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR INSTRUMENT SAFE, POP BACK HERE AND CHECK OUT OUR EXCLUSIVE CARRY CASE OPTIONS
Mini Monitor 900s are as tough as old boots but that doesn’t
mean you shouldn’t take good care of them. Now you can protect your instrument
from the inevitable bumps, knocks and, of course, the weather, with one of our exclusive carry cases.
There are three options: On the right we have a very limited number of original (second user) leather-clad rigid over-the-shoulder cases, purpose-made specifically for the Mini Monitor 900 series. The condition is generally fair to good, but it's a case - no pun intended - of pot-luck as our supplies are low very and constantly changing. These cost £42.00 inc UKp&p
Alternatively, on the left, we have some genuine Peli Cases. These are type 1300, the original and still the best. They're second user and have led a pretty hard life, with a fair amount of scuff marks and minor scratches on the outside, but that has not affected their integrity and legendary ability to protect your Mini 900 or anything else you care to put in it, from the elements, and anything life on the road can throw at it. When new expect to pay a hundred pounds or more but you can have one of these, complete with fitted foam inserts for just £45.00 inc UK p&p.
And last, but not least, over there on the right , we have our hugely popular, and brand spanking new, super-tough IP77 rated, impact resistant carry case with fitted foam interior, soft grip handle, holes for padlocks and auto pressure release. These cases will set you back £49.99 inc UK p&p.
Please
note the original cases have seen some use but they are complete, in generally good condition and supplied with the leather shoulder strap. OVERSEAS CUSTOMERS: PLEASE CONTACT US TO PURCHASE THESE CASES AND LET US KNOW YOUR LOCATION SO WE CAN CALCULATE SHIPPING COSTS.
To add a case to your order just click chosen case on the drop-down options list.
Please note that these cases are unsuitable for Type R, G and long-handled 'frisker' probes due to their size. Larger cases are available on request.

REALLY IMPORTANT SMALL PRINT -- PLEASE READ BEFORE OPRDERING
Unless indicated otherwise the Mini Instruments & Thermo Electron/Scientific/Morgan etc. Mini Monitor 900s that we sell are all previously owned. However, they mostly come from good homes where they have generally been well maintained, regularly calibrated and are in good working order. In addition to deep cleaning and any necessary case refurbishments, we carry out a full range of operational checks, including probe performance and HV supply, circuit board & cable inspection and pulse-calibration* (according to MI protocols and data) of the ratemeter. This is repeated immediately prior to despatch. Most models have fixed probe to ratemeter curly cables., a few models have factory original PET or, in a very few cases. first-user fitted TNC, BNC or SHV type connectors. If you have a specific connector requirement we may be able to help, just ask. All models come with an unconditional 6-months guarantee.
Whenever possible we include a copy of the original user manual. We always try to ensure that they are model-specific but in some rare cases they may be a generic version, covering basic operation and so on. We also include a battery holder and in most cases, a vented end-window protective probe cover. Unless noted otherwise they do not come with any other accessories. Instruments are graded according to cosmetic condition from A+ to C-, with A indicating 'as-new' to very good, and C, full working order but a bit tatty or with more noticeable scratches, dinks and blemishes, etc.
*And finally please read and understand the following: All of the instruments that we sell, maintain or repair are guaranteed to be in good working order, within factory spec and pulse calibrated in accordance with the manufacturer's protocols. However, as we cannot know how or where they will be used, or with what other equipment or materials, we cannot advise, certify or endorse them for use in regulatory, health and safety or safety-critical and related applications. If you have a specific application we strongly recommend that you consult your RPA/RPI etc., or seek qualified expert advice before purchase. See also our Terms and Condition.
