Overview
The Dräger X-am 8000 is a 1 to 7 gas detector for clearance measurement and personal monitoring. It measures toxic and flammable gases, vapours and oxygen at once in pump or diffusion mode, takes PID, IR, CatEx and up to 3 electrochemical sensors, and guides confined space clearance with built-in assistants.
- 1 to 7 gases from 5 sensor slots: PID or IR Ex/CO2, IR or CatEx, plus 3 XXS electrochemical sensors
- Choice of more than 40 sensors: Ex, CO2, O2, CO, H2S, NO2, SO2, VOCs and benzene
- Optional integrated pump for hoses up to 45 m (148 ft); the pump adapter switches to diffusion
- Clearance assistant works out the flushing time from the gases, temperature and hose length
- PID HC (0 to 2,000 ppm isobutylene) or PID LC ppb (from 10 ppb); benzene-specific readings with a pre-tube
- Automatic range switch from % LEL to vol % for high methane
- Colour display, 100 dB horn at 30 cm, alarm LEDs and vibration; inductive charging
- IP68; ATEX, IECEx and cCSAus Class I Zone 0
Any of Dräger's 40+ X-am 8000 sensors can be fitted; pre-tubes for benzene are available. Request a quote for pricing and availability.
