Accurate and reliable results The hazardous substances in the air are collected using a suitable medium – such as activated charcoal, silica gel or molecular sieves. The sample is then analyzed in a laboratory with the aid of instrumental analysis. The sampling process is conducted either actively with a manual Dräger accuro or automatic Dräger-Tube pump X-act 5000, or passively via a diffusion sampler.
Suitable for complex cases The Dräger Sampling Tubes and Systems allow to identify and measure different substances even under difficult conditions. This applies especially to very complex mixtures of substances or cases in which several similar substances are present at the same time.
Advantages of passive sampling Low price since no additional sampling equipment is required Long-term sampling does not require any preparation of the room Low determination and detection limits Fluctuations of concentration are integrated into the measurement result Overview measurements as well as surveillance of limit values
Advantages of active sampling Accumulation of substances in large amount of air within short time Low determination and detection limits
The Dräger PSS® AirBoss offers best in class ergonomics and is one of the lightest weight breathing apparatus for firefighting. Lessons learned from firefighters around the world as well as latest innovations in technology have led us to design an even safer and cleaner SCBA system that enables you to breathe more easily and for longer.
For manufacturing petrochemical products, aseptic packing, or handling of rocket fuel: the Dräger X-am® 5100 portable single-gas detector ensures that you use the safest methods possible for handling HF, HCl, H2O2 or hydrazine – thanks to proven Dräger sensor technology and a device design which is perfectly customised to reactive gases.
The selective PID gas measurement device is ideal for users who frequently test for hazardous toxic substances. Benzene, butadiene and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are carcinogenic even in the smallest concentrations. Selective measurement is necessary because other gases and vapours are often also present. The gas measurement device allows for short test times and laboratory-quality results.
