Dräger X-am 2500 Gas Detector

In industrial environments, the risk of gas leaks, poisoning, or explosions is always present. This is where a robust and reliable gas detection device like the Dräger X-am 2500 comes into play. This instrument warns you and your colleagues against potential hazards, acting like a true hero. It is specifically developed for personal protection for those working in confined spaces or risky areas, meaning you can carry it with confidence.

This device is a multi-detector capable of simultaneously detecting 1 to 4 different gases. With reliable sensor technology, long battery life, and ease of use, it also helps keep operational costs low.

Gases This Device Detects

The Dräger X-am 2500 typically detects the following gases:

• Flammable Gases and Vapors (LEL/Ex): Detects a wide range of flammable gases and vapors from methane to nonane, crucial for areas like refineries and the chemical industry where explosion risks exist.

• Oxygen (O2): Monitors whether oxygen levels in the environment are dangerously low or high. Oxygen deficiency can lead to asphyxiation, while excess oxygen can increase explosion risk when combined with flammable materials.

• Carbon Monoxide (CO): Instantly detects this poisonous gas, known as the silent killer.

• Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S): Detects this highly toxic gas, known for its rotten egg smell.

• Optional Sensors: Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) can be added with optional sensors, important in areas with industrial pollution and exhaust gases.

Key Features

• Robust and Durable Design: Possesses an IP 67 protection rating, meaning it is fully protected against water and dust. It continues to operate even in rain, mud, or if dropped in water.

• Dräger Sensors: Provides accurate and reliable measurements thanks to fast, sensitive, and long-lasting Dräger sensors. The catalytic Ex sensor stands out with its high resistance to silicone and hydrogen sulfide and a service life of over 4 years. The lead-free oxygen sensor also boasts a durability of over 5 years.

• Large and Clear Display: Features a large display where all gas readings can be seen at a glance.

• 360° Visual, Audible, and Vibrating Alarms: When a gas hazard is detected, it alerts the user visually (360-degree visibility), audibly (>90 dB at 30 cm), and via vibration. It's impossible to miss!

• User-Friendly Interface: Easy-to-control menu navigation with just two buttons. Even those less familiar with technology can use it comfortably.

• Long Battery Life: Can operate for over 12 hours with alkaline or rechargeable NiMH batteries, and over 13 hours with high-capacity NiMH batteries. Without the Ex sensor, it lasts over 250 hours. Charging time is less than 4 hours.

• Data Logger: Can store over 1000 hours of data for 4 gases at a 1-minute recording interval. This data can be easily accessed via an infrared interface.

• Ergonomic and Lightweight: Its weight of 220-250 grams and ergonomic design offer ease of carrying.

• Optional Pump Module: An external pump can be connected to check air quality before entering confined spaces, with hose support up to 45 meters.

Areas of Use

The sectors and professionals who can use this device are quite broad, as safety is essential everywhere:

• Construction Industry: Excavation sites, tunnels, confined spaces.

• Mining: Risks of methane and other toxic gases.

• Refineries and Petrochemical Plants: Risk of flammable gas and vapor leaks.

• Chemical Industry: Detection of various chemical gases.

• Pharmaceutical Industry: Gas emissions in production processes.

• Firefighting and Emergency Response Teams: On-site investigation and gas detection.

• Wastewater Treatment Plants: Detection of H2S and methane gas.

• Shipbuilding and Maritime: Confined tanks and engine rooms.

• Gas Distribution Companies: Leak detection in pipelines and stations.
