Flexible and easily adjusted to suit
the specific requirements of different
personal monitoring applications,
the Draeger X-am gas detection
instrument provides accurate,
reliable measurement of 1 to 5 gases.
Lightweight and as small as a mobile phone, it ensures fast reliable monitoring of ambient air. Rugged in design and easy to use, it is also said to offer low operational costs.
Incorporating the miniaturised XXS generation of high performance sensors, the X-am 5000 can be fitted with up to four sensors to detect as many as five gases at once. For example, by using a catalytic Exsensor together with two electrochemical sensors and a combination, double sensor for CO and H2S, it will provide simultaneous measurement of explosive gases and vapours as well as O2 and other toxic gases.
