Features of Draeger X-am 3500 Multi Gas Detector
- Pump Usage and Optimization: The Drager X-am 3500 is optimized for pump-assisted clearance measurements, featuring a powerful pump that can be connected to hoses up to 45 meters long. Its pump adapter enables easy switching between diffusion and pump modes, conserving energy and extending the pump’s lifespan.
- Verified Sensor Performance: The device’s sensor performance for combustible gases like methane, propane, and n-nonane has been validated by an external body according to EN 60079-29-1 standards. Compact and durable, the X-am 3500 is designed for single-handed use with three function keys and an easy-to-read color display, making it suitable for rugged environments.
- Clear Signaling Design: Its clear signal system uses color-coded lights for intuitive alerts: red for gas alarms, yellow for device-related alarms (e.g., low battery), and green for ready-to-use status. The green D-Light allows users to quickly confirm the device is operational from a distance. In alarm situations, bright LEDs, a 100 dB horn, and vibration provide unmistakable alerts, with optional hazard symbols indicating specific dangers.
- Economical Fleet Management: For economical fleet management, the X-dock calibrating station minimizes test gas usage and operating costs, while the Drager Gas Detection Connect Software enhances reporting and tracking with barcodes or RFID. Inductive charging prevents corrosion and contact issues, prolonging device lifespan, and allowing charging and measurement simultaneously outside explosive zones.
