Intended use
®
Dräger X-am
3500 is a portable gas detector for clearance
measurements and for the continuous monitoring of the
concentration of several gases in ambient air in the workplace
and in explosion-hazard areas.
The X-am 3500 allows measuring up to 4 gases in
accordance with the DrägerSensors (XXS O
XXS CO LC, XXS NO
, XXS SO

are installed. The gas detector can be operated in pump mode
or in diffusion mode.
3.3
Limitations on use
The gas detector is not suitable for measuring process
gasses.
Operation of the gas detector in the charging cradle in a
vehicle is only permitted under the following conditions:
– Acoustic signalling must be deactivated (with the help of
the PC software CC-Vision) so that the driver is not
distracted.

Approvals
A copy of the rating plate, the declaration of conformity and
the sensor data relevant for measurement purposes are
provided in the enclosed supplementary documentation (part
no. 90 33 655).
Explosion protection:
BVS 17 ATEX E 040 X certifies the intended use in explosion-
hazard areas and the measuring function for explosion
protection. PFG 19 G 001 X certifies the measurement of
oxygen deficiency and oxygen surplus as well as the
measuring function for toxic gases. See the supplementary
documentation for certified gases and measured values (part
no. 90 33 655).
CSA-specific information:
Only the combustible gas part of this instrument has been
tested for measuring accuracy.
Radio approval (X-am 8000 only):
The information for radio approval can be viewed in the menu.
