This multiple-gas detector transfers data via Bluetooth
The portable X-am 5800 multi-gas detector (photo) simultaneously measures up to six gases, depending on the sensors installed. The newly developed Catalytic Ex-Sensor (CatEx SR) is robust and can be used for measuring flammable vapors, such as gasoline, diesel and nonane, and the gases methane, propane and hydrogen. It has an automatic full-range option available for methane, allowing for gas measurements of up to 100 vol.%. Furthermore, the sensor is particularly resistant to contamination from silicone or other harmful substances. The X-am 5800 can be used with the company’s cloud-based software solution, which digitalizes asset management and facilitates live data transmission. Here, the gas detector transfers the data via Bluetooth to a smartphone, which then sends it to the cloud. With the automatic test station, Dräger X-dock, data can also be transferred to the same cloud backend without a smartphone. The X-am 5800 is approved for Ex zone 0 and has been tested in accordance with ingress protection class IP 68. Hall C1, Stand 217 — Dräger Safety AG & Co. KGaA, Lübeck, Germany
