Dräger Pac® 8000

Draeger-Pac-8000

With the robust Dräger Pac® 8000, you’ll be well equipped for tough conditions: this non-disposable, personal single-gas detection device is a reliable and precise instrument, which detects hazardous concentrations of 29 different gases, including special gases like NO2, O3 or COCl2. Measured data can easily be transmitted into the Dräger Gas Detection Connect system via Bluetooth®.

  • ​for personal air monitoring 
  • detection of 29 different gases – including special gases such as nitrogen dioxide, ozone or phosgene
  • non-disposable

You can count on the Dräger Pac 8000 to give you reliable, precise readings at any time even in extreme conditions. Our powerful sensors with a low t-90 response time ensure quick reactions. In addition to the standard alarms, you can define extra alarm thresholds for TLV®/TWA* and STEL*.

*TLV®/TWA = Threshold Limit Values / Time Weighted Average, STEL = Short Term Exposure Limit

The Pac 8000 can be fitted with sensors for carbon dioxide (CO2), chlorine gas (Cl2), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), ammonia (NH nitrogen dioxide (NO2), phosphine (PH3) and organic vapours (OV or OV-A).

The Dräger Pac 8000 performs especially well when detecting different special gases: it can detect ozone (O3) from concentrations as low as 0.02 ppm and phosgene (COCL2) from 0.01 ppm. The Pac 8000 detects nitrogen dioxide (NO2) from concentrations as low as 0.04 ppm.

​The Pac 8000 can easily handle even extreme conditions. The sensors can tolerate air pressures between 700 and 1,300 mbar. A membrane filter protects the sensor from foreign matter such as dust and liquids. The shock-proof, chemical-resistant housing meets the requirements specified in the IP68 standard rating.

​The D-Light indicates whether functionality of the device has been tested and that it is ready to use. The housing is also designed with your safety in mind: each sensor variant of the Dräger Pac 8000 features clear, well visible colour coding, thereby minimising the chance of mistakes.

​The large display is non-verbal and clearly indicates the respective gas concentration. Other important information, such as the unit of concentration and battery capacity, is also displayed. The bright backlighting ensures that all values can be clearly read off in the dark.

​If the Dräger Pac 8000 measures hazardous gas concentrations, it sets off an audible, visual and noticeable 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 acknowledged.

The Pac 8000 logs concentrations and events along with date and time. The data can be downloaded to a PC via an interface and processed further there. With the new Gas Detection Connect system – and thus the integrated X-dock stations – you can view and download the logs from a central cloud-based asset management system. Available anytime from anywhere.

​With the new Bluetooth® enabled Pac you can wirelessly transmit live measurement values into the Dräger Gas Detection Connect system. You can easily track the location of the worker and their Pac by connecting the device to the Gas Detection Connect gateway app. Dräger Pac devices can be integrated into third party applications via OpenGATT protocol.

​All of the versions of the Dräger Pac 8000 are equipped with extremely durable Dräger sensors® and a powerful battery.

The Pac 8000 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 in no time.

​Function tests and calibrations can be carried out especially efficiently in the Dräger X-dock® calibration station. The automatic bump tests in the X-dock are a cost-efficient and convenient solution thanks to short test duration and the extremely low test gas consumption. The Pac 8000 is simply placed in the bump test station and automatically selects the correct setting.
