New version mobile multi-gas detector available from Draeger Safety Pacific
Dräger X-am 3000 mobile multi-gas detector
Dräger X-am 3000 is a mobile multi-gas detector for the continuous measurement of hydrogen sulphide, carbon monoxide, oxygen and explosive gases.
The X-am 3000 from Draeger Safety Pacific is available as a three- or four-gas detector with the following sensor combinations:
- Ex, O2, CO
- Ex, O2, H2S or
- Ex, O2, H2S, CO
The three intelligent electrochemical sensors (O2, CO, H2S) have an expected service life of four years and only require calibration every six months.
The catalytic Ex sensor is highly sensitive, resistant to poisoning and reacts quickly to combustible gases. The large, easy to read display shows all measured values simultaneously.
Simple operation even in tough environments:
The three-key operating concept and straightforward menu system make for virtually self-explanatory operation of this instrument, which weighs just 550 grams.
The sturdy gas detector, which is dust- and splash-proof according to the ingress protection rate IP65, is ideally suited to the sort of tough applications which typically occur in industry.
An optional rubber housing protection increases the instrument’s resistance to impact and falling.
Internal pump and data logger:
The optional internal pump, when used in conjunction with a hose of up to ten metres in length, enables all-clear measurements to be performed before personnel enter shafts, sewers or other confined spaces.
The pump starts automatically when the pump adapter is fitted, and gives an alarm if the gas flow is too low, for instance as a result of a kinked hose.
A data logger is also available as an accessory and is used to record gas concentrations and alarms over a period of 40 hours. The data are then sent to a PC via the charger station, and can be analysed and displayed using the Dräger GasVision software.
Power supply:
Power is supplied by replaceable NiMH rechargeable batteries and alkaline batteries. Depending on battery type, this gives between 18 and 25 hours of operation.
Recharging the batteries generally takes four hours. The X-am 3000 can be used in a wide temperature range from -20°C to +55°C at a relative humidity of 10% to 95% and an ambient pressure of 700 to 1,300 mbar.
