Powered air purifying respirator hire for dust and gases

The Dräger X-plore 8500 is a powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) blower unit that pushes filtered air to your headtop, making breathing noticeably easier than with a half or full face mask.

  • PAPR blower unit that draws air through the filter and delivers breathing air through the hose to the headtop
  • Noticeably more comfortable than a conventional half or full face mask, because the wearer does not have to pull air through the filter – the reason PAPR systems are chosen for long shifts
  • Depending on the filter fitted, it protects against particles, gases, or both
  • No flow check needed before use: integrated sensors monitor the system and warn optically, audibly and by vibration if no hose or filter is attached

Sensor monitoring and filter saturation display

  • An optical sensor blocks operation if no filter is fitted
  • Particle filter saturation display, so the filter is changed when it needs changing
  • Flow adjusted automatically via temperature and pressure sensors, keeping delivery constant as conditions change
  • Virtually maintenance-free, with rubber protectors on the housing

Technical data of the X-plore 8500 blower unit

  • Protection class IP65 with filter and battery fitted, resisting dust and jet water
  • Weight 908 g without filter and battery
  • Ambient-air-dependent respirator

Typical applications for PAPR hire

  • Industry, chemical production and pharmaceutical work
  • Construction, demolition and dust-heavy tasks
  • Laboratories and food and beverage production
  • Long wearing times where breathing resistance becomes the limiting factor
