The new family of Dräger Pac 1000, 3000 and 5000 single-gas detectors
The new Dräger Pac instruments belong to the company's family of single-gas detectors and warning instruments. These economical, intuitively operated instruments are small, robust, ergonomic and powerful, and are tailor-made for personal monitoring at the workplace. There are different versions of the instruments available to cover a wide range of applications in industry practice. The instruments, which are maintenance-free, reliably monitor the ambient air and provide warning against harmful concentrations of carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide and oxygen.

There are different versions of the instruments available:

Dräger Pac 1000:
Maintenance-free instrument for an operating duration of 100 days with status display.

Dräger Pac 3000:
Maintenance-free instrument with status display and operating day counter, adjustable from one day to two years.

Dräger Pac 5000:
Maintenance-free instrument with concentration display, operating day counter, adjustable from one day to two years, and event logger.

Featuring a compact, handy and pocketsized design, the different instrument versions are tailor-made for personal monitoring in daily work activities. The housing is enclosed by protective rubber, and the polyamide housing is resistant to corrosive chemicals. The instruments meet the requirements of IP 65 and their EMC protection meets the IEC specification. The large display presents information in large numerals or symbols rather than in text form. The display is illuminated in the event of an alarm, or when a button is pressed, to make it easier to read.

A rotatable alligator clip ensures secure attachment to the user's clothing. In combination with a vibration alarm, an audible and visual alarm is triggered if the set alarm limits are violated. A two-tone alarm is used for optimum perception. A warning is also given at the end of the instrument's operating time, when the battery capacity is exhausted, and in the event of a malfunction. For calibration or individual configuration purposes, the instrument is connected to a PC via the communication module or the E-Cal system. This combination, together with the installed Pac Vision or CC Vision software, allows calibration and configuration of all functions and download of the stored data.

Measurements are conducted according to the diffusion principle. The new XXS sensors are able to react in the blink of an eye thanks to the very short electrochemical reaction times and very short diffusion paths.
