The DrägerSensor PID HC precisely measures the concentration of hydrocarbons and warns of hazardous gas concentrations.

  • The replaceable sensor is compatible with the Dräger X-am 8000
  • Expected service life of more than 2 years, supplied with a one-year warranty
  • Fast response time: ≤ 5 seconds (t20) and ≤ 10 seconds (t90) in both diffusion and pump mode
  • Warm-up time: ready to measure in 2 minutes, ready for calibration in 2 minutes
  • Operating conditions: −20 to 60 °C, 10 to 95 % RH, 700 to 1,300 hPa

Special features – DrägerSensor PID HC

The response factors of the library gases are predefined and cannot be changed. For gases not held in the library, user-defined VOC gases can be used.

Benzene (C6H6)up to 1,000 ppm
Ethanol (C2H5OH)up to 10,000 ppm
Ethylene (C2H4)up to 10,000 ppm
Toluene (C7H8)up to 1,000 ppm
Xylene (m/p/o-xylene)800 to 1,000 ppm
