Designed to meet the needs of short-term projects, the new Draeger Pac 1000 Personal Monitor provides an immediate alarm as soon as harmful concentrations of carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide or oxygen are detected. Offering 100 days of maintenance-free protection, without requiring battery or sensor to be replaced, it also provides three alarm functions and is easy to use.
Small yet robust and featuring simple push-button operation as well as a language-free, back-lit liquid crystal display, the Pac 1000 provides a clear readout of the hazard concentration during an alarm.
Two alarm points can be set to meet the needs of different applications and, in addition to a two-tone audible alarm, the user benefits from both vibrating and visual alarms. A warning will also be issued in the event of instrument error and before the end of the unit's useable life.
For maximum reliability, the display also features a bump test icon that informs the user as and when a function test is required. This can be easily carried out with a Draeger Bump Test Station whilst the Bump Test mode can be configured, calibrated and adjusted via PC using Pac Vision or CC-Vision software. Several instruments can also be configured and calibrated at the same time with the Draeger E-Cal system.
Equipped with the new electrochemical Draeger XXS Sensors to ensure fast reaction and an immediate, accurate indication of harmful gas concentrations, the PAC 1000 meets the needs of IP65 and is easily fastened to work wear by way of a secure alligator clip.
