The Draeger X-zone 5000 transforms the Draeger personal gas detection instruments X-am 5000/5600 into innovative area monitoring devices for a wide range of applications.
A patented combination for increased safety, in addition to the personal air monitors carried on the body, these area monitors can be positioned at the source of gas hazards for early warning.
Even from a distance, the illuminated green LED ring on the gas detection area monitors indicates that the air is clean.
Upon detection of gas hazards, the LED colour changes from green to red, providing a clear visual warning that gas is present.
Additionally, an evacuation alarm is emitted at 110 decibels from the gas detection area monitors.
Up to 25 Draeger X-zones can be interconnected to form a wireless fenceline within seconds.
This interconnection of the transportable measuring heads allows for quick securing of larger areas, e.g. pipelines or industrial tanks - even within the scope of industrial shutdowns.
In the event of a gas alarm, the gas detection area monitors transmit the alarm signal to all units that are part of the fenceline which then signal a daughter alarm.
The daughter alarm, in contrast to the red master alarm, is displayed green/red by the illuminated LED ring, making it easy to visually identify the unit that is the source of the gas.
An optional integrated pump on the gas detection area monitors allows the continuous monitoring of areas during pump operation.
This offers the possibility of continuous monitoring, of confined spaces and locations which are difficult to access, from a distance of up to 45 metres.
