Dräger Pac 6500
The robust Dräger Pac® 6500 is your reliable companion under tough conditions to quickly and precisely monitor gas concentrations with quick sensor response times. The replaceable battery and robust sensors ensure additional safety.
The Pac 6500 is a personal single-gas detection device that measures gas concentrations for the following:
• Carbon Monoxide – CO
• Oxygen – O2
• Hydrogen Sulfide - H2S
• Sulphur Dioxide - SO2
Dräger Pac® 6500 Strong performance for maximum safety
You can rely on the Dräger Pac 6500 to warn against hazardous concentrations of carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, sulfide dioxide or oxygen with precision and reliability. The powerful sensors feature a very low t-90 response time ensuring quick reactions. The Pac 6500 is extremely versatile thanks to its wide measurement range. Example: the CO sensor measures concentrations from 1 to 1,999 ppm, and the H2S sensor from 0.4 to 100 ppm.
Easy handling thanks to clear user guidance
The D-Light indicates whether functionality has been tested and whether it is ready to use. The housing is also designed with your safety in mind: each sensor variant of the Dräger Pac 6500 features clearly visible color coding, thereby minimizing the chance of choosing the incorrect detector.
Robust design – even for the toughest conditions
The Pac 6500 is easily handled in even extreme conditions. Depending on the sensor, temperatures from -40 °C to 55 °C and air pressures between 700 and 1,300 mbar can be tolerated. The Pac 6500 is protected against water, dust and other foreign bodies by a special membrane filter. When the filter becomes heavily soiled in use, you can quickly and easily replace it yourself. The device is then ready to use again right away. The shock-proof, chemical-resistant housing meets the requirements specified in the IP68 standard rating.
User-friendly display with all important information
The large display clearly indicates the respective gas concentration. Other important information, such as the battery capacity, is also displayed. The bright backlighting ensures that all values are clearly legible in the dark.
360° alarm with various functions
If the Dräger Pac 6500 measures hazardous gas concentrations, it sets off an audible, visual and perceptible vibrating alarm. Two bright, flashing LEDs on the top and bottom of the device ensure that the alarm is easily visible from all sides. The acoustic signal reaches a volume of 90 dB. The display can show the peak concentration measured at any given moment. Earlier alarms registered can also be retrieved at a later time, even if they have been acknowledged.
The Pac 6500 with oxygen sensor has two additional alarm thresholds in addition to the standard alarm threshold settings. This provides an additional level of safety as a pre-alarm, in addition to the main alarm, can be set for both oxygen enriched and oxygen deficient atmospheres.
Data logger and event logger for analyses and reports
The Dräger Pac 6500 logs concentrations and events along with the date and time. The data can be loaded on a PC via an interface and processed further.
Economical operating costs
All versions of the Pac 6500 are equipped with extremely durable Dräger Sensors and a powerful battery.
Neither the sensor nor the battery need to be changed over the minimum two-year maintenance-free service life of the H2S, SO2 and CO versions.
Fast function test saves time and money
Function tests and calibrations can be carried in the Dräger X-dock® calibration station. The automatic
bump tests in the X-dock are a cost-efficient and convenient solution thanks to the short test duration and the extremely low consumption of test gas.
