Description

Small yet robust
Small, light and easy to use – the robust and water-tight gas detector X-am 5600 is designed for single-handed
operation in tough industrial environments. Water- and dustproof according to IP 67 and with an integrated
rubber boot, the device provides optimal functionality even under harsh conditions.

Durable infrared technology
Thanks to the high stability and a resistance to contamination, Dräger infrared sensors can generally be used
for up to eight years. This advanced technology reduces the cost of ownership considerably because less
replacement sensors are needed. In addition, a calibration of the IR sensor is only necessary every 12 months
which reduces maintenance costs.

Single or dual sensor – accurate measurement results
The infrared sensor IR Ex allows the measurement of flammable hydrocarbons in the range of the lower
explosive limit. The infrared sensor IR CO2, with a measurement resolution of 0.01 Vol.-%, provides safe and
exact measurements as well as a warning against toxic concentrations of carbon dioxide in the ambient air. For
those applications where the reliable measurement of flammable substances and CO2 is specifically needed,
the advantages of both can be achieved by a dual sensor (Dual IR CO2/Ex).

Also in combination with Hydrogen
Besides hydrocarbons, hydrogen can also be a flammable gas. Because sensors based on infrared technology
do not warn against hydrogen explosion dangers, the gas detector X-am 5600 combines two sensor signals
(Infrared Ex and electrochemical H2 HC) for reliable hydrogen detection. The X-am 5600 provides the
advantages of poison-free technology to be used in areas where, until now, only catalytic Ex sensors have been
used.
Various monitoring possibilities
Thanks to the combination of innovative infrared technology and the latest electrochemical Dräger XXS
miniature sensors, this 1-to-6 gas detector reliably detects flammable and harmful concentrations of O2, Cl2,
CO, CO2, H2, H2S, HCN, NH3, NO, NO2, PH3, SO2, O3, Amine, Odorant, COCl2 and organic vapors. With
the PC software Dräger CC-Vision, the sensors can easily be exchanged, calibrated or converted to meet the
needs of different applications.

Flexible use
An optional external pump which can be operated with hoses up to 45 m in length is the perfect solution for
pre-entry measurements in tanks or pipelines. To monitor entire areas, the gas detector X-am 5600 can be used
in combination with the innovative air monitor Dräger X-zone 5500
