THE NEW DRAEGER X-AM 5600 – THE SMALLEST PORTABLE GAS DETECTOR TO MEASURE UP TO SIX GASES

Listen to this article

The new Draeger X-am 5600 is believed to be the smallest portable gas detection instrument for the measurement of up to six gases.  With an ergonomic mobile phone design, it features innovative infrared (IR) sensor technology and provides accurate, reliable measurements of explosive, combustible and toxic gases and vapours, as well as oxygen.

Ideal for personal monitoring applications, this light yet robust detector is designed for single-handed operation in tough industrial environments and is ATEX approved for use in explosive areas classified as Zone 0. 

By using a combination of innovative Draeger IR sensors and the latest Draeger XXS miniaturised electrochemical sensors, the Draeger X-am 5600 can detect a wide variety of hazards.  These include O2, CO, H2S, H2 , CO2, Cl2, HCN, NH3, NO, NO2, PH3, SO2 and organic vapours.  

Immune to poisons such as hydrogen sulphide (H2S), Draeger IR sensors ensure dependable warnings against explosive and combustible hazards such as hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide.  Offering a low cost of ownership, they offer an extended sensor life of up to eight years, twice as long as catalytic Ex sensors.  In addition, they only require calibration every 12 months and, as a result, significantly reducing maintenance costs.
