The Dräger X-zone 5800 transforms the Dräger personal gas detection instruments X-am 5000, 5100 and 5600 into innovative area monitoring devices for a wide range of applications. A patented combination for increased safety – in addition to the personal air monitors carried on the body, these area monitors are positioned where gas hazards are expected.

Even from a distance, the illuminated green LED ring indicates that the air is free of toxic and combustible gases. Upon detection of gas hazards, the LED color changes from green to red, thus providing a clear visual warning that gas is present. Additionally, a loud and highly audible evacuation alarm is emitted. The Dräger X-zone 5800 gas entry location permits gas to diffuse into the Dräger X-am 5000, 5100 or 5600 from all sides.

Up to 25 Dräger X-zone 5800 can be automatically interconnected to form a wireless fenceline. The interconnection of the area monitoring devices allows for rapid establishment of safety networks for larger areas. A Dräger X-zone 5800 detecting a gas alarm transmits the alarm signal to all interconnected units. A red flashing master alarm in the unit detecting the gas contrasts with red/green flashing alarms of the connected units. This provides simple recognition of alarm status and the actual location of the hazard. With the corresponding configuration, the maximum gas concentration in the monitored area is shown on the display. Combined with the display of the X-zone ID a clear containment of the hazard area is possible.

The 24 Ah battery of the Dräger X-zone 5800 provides up to 120 hours of continuous operation – up to a complete working week. The Power Supply Ex is available for continuous use of the X-zone 5800. It offers a 50 m supply from a safe area to a potentially explosive area and is even approved for use with the X-zone 5800 in Zone 0. For safe transport, the cable of the Power Supply Ex is rolled up on a cable drum in which the power supply is also integrated.

The X-zone 5800 offers you both the possibility to draw in gas from a distance of up to 30 m in pump mode and the use in diffusion mode. The switch between these two options takes less than a minute. Simply exchange the pump cover or the supplied diffusion cover against each other. The X-zone 5800 is ready for another measuring operation – without any tools.

The interfaces on the back of the device offer the possibility of switching actuators in case of alarms by means of the configurable relay. The interface can also directly forward device data, such as measured values of sensors and alarms, via Modbus protocol. This allows you to integrate the devices into existing evaluation units.

Time, place and gas concentration are the most important data in the event of a gas leak. In an emergency, every second counts. Consequently, we have developed a more efficient and significantly safer method of area monitoring compared to conventional solutions: the Dräger X-zone 5800 together with X-zone Com. With these you can receive and view the measured data and alarms outside of the danger zone.
The module X-zone Com allows you to access the Dräger X-zone 5800 data wirelessly over the GSM network. Be it status requests or alerts via SMS using a periodic delivery of data via e-mail to a FTP server or a cloud service – the X-zone Com GSM module sends all data directly to the device of your choice.
Up to 25 Dräger X-zone can automatically connect themselves to a wireless alarmchain to accurately and comprehensively monitor large areas. Only a single X-zone Com is required to retransmit the data of the entire chain. All relevant information will reach those responsible within seconds.
Data from the Dräger X-zone 5800 group can also be displayed on a laptop via Bluetooth®. With the integrated GPS module, the position of the X-zone Com and thus the location of the hazard source is transmitted. A data logger continuously stores the measured values ensuring that no data is lost. Trend analysis using data from the cloud is possible.
Thus, all important measures covering evacuation and protection as well as the elimination of the problem and the resumption of work can be implemented quickly, efficiently and, above all, safely.
