Draeger X-AM2500 Gas Detector
The Draeger X-am® 2500 gas detector is a 1 to 4 gas detection device, detecting combustible gases and vapours, as well as O2, CO, H2S and SO2, which provides an extremely high level of user safety and reliability. It is designed for safe use in demanding industrial environments, such as mining and refineries. Fitted with the innovative, catalytic Ex sensor that is impressive due to its high resistance to silicone and hydrogen sulphide. Combined with the high drift stability allows for a significantly longer service life than conventional products, lasting for more than 4 years on average. Thanks to its low weight and ergonomic design, the Draeger X-am 2500 offers a high degree of wearing comfort. With its intuitive menu navigation, the instrument can be operated smoothly without any need for prior training or specialist knowledge. Key Features of the Draeger X-AM2500 Gas Detector - Weight: 220g - Ambient conditions: -20 °C - +50°C - Dimensions (W x H x D): 48 x 130 x 44 mm - Visual alarm visible across 360° - Detection of flammable gases and vapours as well as O2, CO, NO2, SO2 and H2S - Water and dust resistant in acc. with IP 67 - Large display with all values at a glance - long service life of more than 4 years - Optional external pump with a hose up to 45 m long attachment - Reliable power supply of 12 hours, taking 4 hours to charge - Ex approval for zone 0 Frequently Asked Questions about Draeger X-AM2500 Gas Detector How often does a gas detector require calibrating? This will depend on use. If the gas detector has been exposed to high concentrations of gas or unusal conditions, servicing should occur at least every six months. ESS follows manufacturers guidelines of fully servicing our gas detectors every six months. We also ensure that before hiring to a customer, the gas detector is bump test and visually inspected to ensure everything is in good working order. What is the difference between a gas detector bump test and a calibration check? The ISEA defines a bump test as a “qualitative function check where a challenge gas is passed over the sensor(s) at a concentration and exposure time sufficient to activate all alarm indicators to present at least their lower alarm setting.” While a calibration check is defined as a “quantitative test utilizing a known traceable concentration of test gas to demonstrate that the sensor(s) and alarms respond to the gas within manufacturer’s acceptable limits.”
