Dräger X-am® 2500

Multi-Gas Detection

The Dräger X-am® 2500 was especially developed for use as personal
protection. The 1 to 4 gas detector reliably detects combustible gases and
vapours, as well as O2, CO, NO2, SO2 and H2S. Reliable and fully mature
measuring technology, durable sensors and easy handling guarantee a
high degree of safety with extremely low operating costs.

Benefits

Durable electrochemical sensors

Fully developed, high performance Dräger sensors in an extra small format for CO, H2S, O2, SO2 and NO2 gases
enable safe use in industry, mining and in refineries. The impressive hydrogen sulphide sensor has a high
resolution, so it can reliably measure even very low workplace limits. The non-consumptive and lead-free sensor
for oxygen is characterized by an especially long service life of more than 5 years. Our CO and H2S sensors
also have this long service life expectation, so they contribute to especially low operating costs.

Poison resistant ex sensor

The innovative, catalytic Ex sensor is im- pressive due to its high resistance to silicone and hydrogen sulphide.
Together with the high degree of drift stability, this resistance enables an extraordinarily long service life of
more than 4 years. Its sensitivity with regard to flammable gases and vapours is tested in accordance with the
technical approval for measuring IEC/EN 60079-29-1 from methane to nonane. This approval also demonstrates
the suitability of this instrument for primary explosion protection, e.g. for use in refineries and in the chemical
industry.

Maximum safety

The Dräger X-am 2500 has Ex approval for zone 0, so it is clearly designed for very high user safety in areas
subject to explosion hazard. The functional design ensures that gas can enter from above and from the side –
even if the instrument is inside a pocket or if the front gas entry is accidentally covered.

Maintenance: fast, easy, inexpensive

From functional test to complete documentation, users have access to practical solutions that provide safety for
implementation at any time. The Dräger Bump Test Station, which does not require a local power source, and
the automatic Dräger X-dock testing and calibration station for comprehensive equipment management are ideal
system additions that save time and effort. Together with the Dräger X-dock, the high quality Dräger sensors
enable quick bump tests of 8 to 15 seconds1 with very low gas consumption. This significantly reduces your
equipment operating costs.

Diffusion or pump

For clearance measurements for tanks and shafts or when searching for leaks, an optional external pump with
a hose up to 30 m long is the optimum solution. The pump starts automatically when the measuring instrument
is inserted in the external pump. The switch from diffusion to pump operation can be handled quickly and easily
without tools or screws.

Benefits

Ergonomic and robust

Thanks to its low weight and ergonomic design, the Dräger X-am 2500 offers a high degree of wearing comfort.
The practical 2008two button control panel and easy menu navigation allow the instrument to be used intuitively,
despite its comprehensive functionality. The integrated protective rubber coating and sensors that are not
sensitive to shock provide additional safety in case of impacts or vibrations. More-over, the Dräger X-am 2500 is
not sensitive to electromagnetic radiation, e.g. from wireless devices. The Dräger X-am 2500 is water and dust
resistant in accordance with protection class IP67, so it remains fully functional even if it falls into the water.

Reliable power supply

The Dräger X-am 2500 can operate with either alkaline batteries or with rechargeable NiMH batteries. This
enables a reliable power supply for more than 12 hours, and with the high capacity battery pack more than 13
hours. Depending on the requirements, the batteries can be charged either in the workshop or in a vehicle.
Operating time without Ex sensor is typically more than 250 hours.

Accessories

Dräger X-am 125, external pump

External pump for hose length of up to 30 meters (98 feet). Makes it

possible to use the detector for pre-entry measurements into confined
spaces such as tanks, shafts, etc. The pump starts automatically when
the detector is inserted. The change between diffusion and pump
operation is quickly and easily possible without any need for additional
tools or steps.
