Versatile and robust
The Dräger X-act 5000 introduces a new era of gas measurement:
Only one device is necessary for measuring and sampling. The automatic
tube pump is compatible with Dräger short-term tubes as well as sampling
tubes and systems. The robust housing supports the use of the pump to
perform the daily measuring tasks under tough conditions. The IS
approved Dräger X-act 5000 can be used for confined space applications
and in explosive gas atmospheres.
Simplicity of operation
The handling of gases, vapors and aerosols has never been
easier. The automatic tube pump Dräger X-act® 5000 directs the air to be
measured through the appropriate Dräger-Tubes effortlessly. It is
comfortably carried with one hand or using the shoulder strap and is
easily operated, even wearing protective gloves. A simple and intuitive
menu structure provides the user efficient operation with just a few
button presses. Using the password-protected menu repetitive operating
modes can be set.
Measurement in technical gases
To evaluate measurements in technical gases, the properties of
the technical gas must be taken into consideration. Technical gases
have a different viscosity than ambient air. Therefore, the flow of the
pump must be set accordingly. Following the operating steps in the mode
„Measurement in Technical Gases“, the Dräger X-act® 5000 will
automatically be adjusted to the required flow parameter and the
measurement result can be read directly.
New pump concept
The
key principle is the ability to provide the required flow
characteristics of the Dräger Short-term Tubes, while also providing the
option to be used with Sampling Tubes and Systems requiring constant
flow. Compared to the Dräger accuro hand pump, this new concept reduces
the average measurement time of the Dräger Short-term Tubes requiring a
high number of strokes. The internal pump is also designed to use
extension hoses up to a length of 30 meters (98 ft.).
Automatic transfer of measurement parameters
A barcode printed on the label on the backside of a Dräger
Short-term Tube box contains all relevant measurement parameters. Simply
sliding the barcode over the barcode reader of the pump, automatically
transfers the name of the substance to be measured, the number of
strokes, and the measuring range to the display. The required steps to
carry out the measurement are simplified with the Dräger X-act® 5000 and
the possibility of making an error is reduced to a minimum.
Direct settings for sample taking
Depending
on the Sampling Tubes or Systems, the required parameters for the test
can be set directly, without the need for an external flowmeter. The
flow rate and duration for sampling for the different sampling tubes are
set manually through the intuitive menu options. After setting the
sampling time the pump can immediately be started. At the end of the
measurement the pump will stop automatically. The set data, the elapsed
time and the pumped volume will be indicated on the display.
