Highlights

Powerful data analysis in the cloud

Safety and efficiency thanks to its networking capability: transfer your recorded data directly and conveniently via Bluetooth® to a smartphone or the Dräger ConHub (gateway) and from there to the backend of the Gas Detection Connect software. As an alternative, you can also transfer the data directly to the cloud with the X-dock test station. This way, you have secure access to your data and its analysis at any time and anywhere – simply via your internet browser.

Comfortable fleet management

You can manage your fleet of equipment comfortably and efficiently in daily use with the X-am 5800. Save operating costs and time with fast tests with low gas consumption by using the automatic X-dock test station or the purely mechanical bump test s tation. Further advantages: powerful device management via our smart software solution, convenient firmware updates in the X-dock, an optional RFID transponder and individual colour marking of the devices. Few, easy-to-replace spare parts – including the power supply – and sensors ensure that your devices remain operational for many years. Dräger provides a 4-year manufacturer's warranty on the basic device. Existing, compatible accessories from its predecessor, the X-am 2500/5000/5600 series, can continue to be used.

Powerful sensors

The newly developed CatEx sensor combines a number of advantages: readiness for calibration within seconds, extreme robustness against impacts and the measurement of combustible vapours – such as petrol, diesel and nonane. You can also set the measur ement gas to methane, propane, hydrogen, and many other gases. The performance is complemented by Dräger's simple cross calibration concept, in which the measurement gas, calibration gas and bump test gas can be specified individually and the required conversions are applied by the device. The sensor is designed to meet the demanding requirements of the new IEC standard 60079-29-1 (International Electrotechnical Commission). At the same time, the CatEx sensor is resistant to poisoning by silicone and other harmful substances. This combination of properties is exceptional. Dräger develops and produces the sensors itself, including powerful, durable electrochemical sensors in XXS format. Your advantage: the sensors and the device are perfectly matched to each other – saving you operating costs. A robust infrared sensor for measuring combustible gases and vapours and/or carbon dioxide or a photoionisation detector for measuring volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are also available.

Tailor-made gas monitoring

Small and lightweight: the X-am 5800 is comfortable to wear and easy to use even with gloves on thanks to its large buttons. The display clearly shows important information such as measured gas values, alarms and time. The green D-Light indicates tha t the device is ready for use. All this plus the language-independent user interface makes the system easy to use and learn. The oxygen display has four alarm thresholds – real pre-alarms and main alarms for dropping and rising concentrations. Approved for use in Ex zone 0, it has also been tested according to protection class IP 68. The device has a manually triggered panic alarm and an optional motionless alarm. Both functions together are called the "Bodyguard" alarm.

Area monitoring

In combination with the Dräger X-zone 5500/5800, the gas detector can be used for flexible area monitoring. Up to 25 Dräger X-zone 5500/5800 units can be automatically interconnected to form one wireless alarm chain. This network of portable ‘sensor heads’ enables the monitoring of large areas, such as pipelines or tanks, during industrial shutdowns.

Focus on sustainability

The device was designed with sustainability in mind. The optimised Dräger sensors and the rechargeable power supply, which can be easily replaced with one screw, ensure it has a long service life. Almost all spare parts can be replaced by trained use rs, while all remaining parts can be repaired by DrägerService. Existing accessories from previous series can be reused. Environmental protection has also been taken into account in the technical documentation and packaging: designed to save paper, and when you order two or more units we can reduce the number of instruction manuals supplied if the modular version is ordered. Dräger takes old devices back and ensures they are properly recycled.
