Drager Pac III


This product is now obsolete.

SINCE 1937, WHEN WE INTRODUCED OUR FIRST DETECTOR TUBE, DRAEGER HAS BEEN THE WORLD LEADER IN THE DETECTION OF GASES AND VAPORS IN THE INDUSTRIAL WORKPLACE. OVER THE YEARS WE HAVE DEVELOPED MORE SENSORS AND DETECTION DEVICES FOR MORE APPLICATIONS THAN ANYONE ELSE! OUR LEADING EDGE TECHNOLOGY HAS KEPT US ON THE FOREFRONT OF ADVANCEMENTS IN ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSORS THUS PROVIDING THE MOST ACCURATE AND SPECIFIC RESULTS AVAILABLE.

Pac III: The Most in a Single Gas Monitor

The Pac III Monitor delivers the most! The loudest audible alarm, the largest display, the easiest to use electronics, and the smartest sensors. All of these features are found in this small and rugged gas monitor. Using DragerSensor technology, the Pac III is the most versatile gas detection instrument because it can utilize any one of Drager's 30+ intelligent sensors, and quickly switch between them in the field.

The DragerSensors provide fast and accurate response to hazardous gas levels while the attention-getting alarms make sure you know the danger is present. The Pac III provides the most sensing and alarming capabilities of any single gas monitor in the industry today.

Rugged Housing

Many gas-monitoring applications are also environmentally challenging. It is not uncommon to work in environments that are hot, cold, wet, dirty, or affected by corrosive gases. These extreme working environments, such as an offshore oil rig or an underground mine, put equipment to the test. The Pac III was designed to handle these tough conditions in stride, and it does!

The metal plated ABS housing provides a light-weight package that is easy to wear, but can take a beating in the field. Regardless of accidental drops, unintentional bumps, or the occasional submersion in water, the Pac III is still ready to measure gas and sound its alarms. O-rings seal the housing from water or dust. The horn and sensor compartments are sealed against the elements too. The Pac III is ready for the most demanding applications.

RFI Shielding

The shiny silver package is not just for looks. The chrome-plated housing provides superior resistance to potential Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). This means that you can use walkie-talkies in close proximity to the unit without causing false alarms.

In addition to protection against RFI, the metallic coating serves to protect the instrument against heat radiation; a valuable feature in the primary metals industries where high heat exposure is common. The Pac III instrument is fully protected against the environment so it can do its job, protecting those who wear it!

Operational Display

The large display constantly communicates information to the user. The gas concentration is continuously shown in large numbers for quick analysis of the situation. Below the concentration is the measurement unit (ppm or % Vol.) and the gas being measured (eg: CO, CL2, PH3, etc.).

Alarm levels (eg: A1 or A2 characters) are also shown in the display. The bottom line of the display is reserved for special information characters. For example, a battery icon tells you when there is a low battery condition. All alarms and warnings are announced with an audible and visual signal and a display message or character. The Pac III communicates the information you want and need to know.



Easy Operation

The Pac III is one tough little instrument, but very easy to operate. The three buttons on the front of the unit turn it ON, OFF, and access routinely needed data like battery levels. Operations like acknowledging alarms and activating the backlight are clearly marked. Implementing this instrument into your gas-monitoring program is a breeze.

Menu-Driven Functions

Functions such as calibration and alarm set points are adjusted through plain language menu commands. These functions are protected by a password to prevent accidental or unauthorized adjustment.

In this mode, the three-buttons act as up, down, and enter buttons to navigate you through the menu. Operation of the Pac III is very intuitive.

The Smartest Technology

The Hygiene version of the Pac III is available for any application that requires documentation and calculation of exposures against the TWA, STEL, or Ceiling values.

The Pac III is able to record and store in excess of 125 hours @ 1 minute intervals of gas exposure. The averaging period is adjustable to extend the recording length, or shorten the averaging period for better resolution of quickly changing conditions.

The Pac III connects to your computer via a standard RS-232, 9-pin connector. This information is fed to Drager's GasVision Software. This Windows based program provides graphic, spread sheet, or combined analysis of the collected data. The integrated search engine allows you to recall stored data by the gas, date, or person you were monitoring. This makes data management an easy task.
