1) The technical manual and instructions for use/data sheets for the utilized sensors and the Dräger CC-Vision PC software for Dräger X-am 5000 can be downloaded from the product page of the X-am 5000
on the following website: www.draeger.com. See also the instructions for use provided and the data sheets for the sensors used.
2) For decreasing concentrations, the adjustment time for nonane is 50 seconds.
3) Alkanes from methane to nonane, LEL values in accordance with EN 60079-20-1. At flow speeds of 0 to 6 m/s, the deviation of the reading is 5 to 10 % of the measured value. For an adjustment to propane,
the deviation of the display in the range of 80 to 120 kPa can be up to 8 %LEL.
4) Certified measuring range for: 0 to 5 vol.%
5) Certified measuring range for: 1 to 100 ppm
6) Range of measured values of a flammable gas that can be around zero within a range from +2 to -5 % LEL and where the instrument displays "0".
Range of measured values of oxygen that can be around 20.9 % within a range of +/- 0.5 % LEL and where the instrument displays "20.9".
Range of measured values of a toxic gas that can be within a range around 0 depending on the sensor and where the instrument displays "0". The exact values are specified in the "Capture range" column
for the relevant sensor.
This range of measured values is known as the "capture range" where minor measured value fluctuations (e.g. signal noise, concentration fluctuations) does not result in a changing display. Measured
values outside the capture range are displayed using their daily measured values. The set capture range can be exported using Dräger CC-Vision and may be lower than given above. The capture range
is continuously activated in measuring mode and disabled in calibration mode. The following capture range applies if the DrägerSensor CatEx 125 PR Gas is used under ground: +0.1 or -0.2 vol.%,
respectively.
7) The instrument responds to most combustible gases and vapours. The sensitivities differ depending on the type of gas. We recommend a calibration using the target gas to be measured. For the range of
alkanes, the sensitivity decreases from methane to nonane.
8) A table of the cross-sensitivities is included in the instructions for use or the data sheet of the respective sensor.
9) The measuring signals can be negatively affected ethane, ethene, ethine, carbon dioxide and hydrogen. No O
10) The measuring signals can be affected additively by sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and hydrogen and negatively by chlorine.
11) Certified measuring range for: 0.4 to 100 ppm
12) Certified measuring range for: 3 to 500 ppm
13) The measuring signals can be affected additively by acetylene, hydrogen and nitrogen monoxide.
