Dräger Pac 8000 Single-Gas Detector

Description

Overview

With the robust Dräger Pac 8000, you’ll be well equipped for tough conditions. This non-disposable, personal single-gas detection device is a reliable and precise instrument that detects hazardous concentrations of 29 different gases, including special gases like H2, NO2, O3, and COCl2 (phosgene). Measured data can easily be transmitted into the Dräger Gas Detection Connect system via Bluetooth.

As a trusted supplier of Dräger safety equipment, Seven Star LLC proudly offers the Pac 8000 to oil and gas, chemical, and industrial safety applications across the Sultanate of Oman, Muscat, and the wider GCC. You can count on the Pac 8000 for reliable, precise readings at any time, even in extreme conditions, thanks to powerful sensors with a fast T-90 response time.

Measurement Principle

The Pac 8000 performs especially well when detecting different special gases: it can detect ozone (O3) from concentrations as low as 0.02ppm and phosgene (COCl2) from 0.01ppm, while detecting nitrogen dioxide (NO2) from concentrations as low as 0.04ppm. The device can be fitted with sensors for a wide range of gases including NO, CO2, Cl2, HCN, NH3, PH3, OV, OV-A, NO2, O3, and COCl2, each with clearly defined measuring ranges and dual alarm setpoints (for example, Cl2 measures 0-20ppm with 0.5/1ppm alarm thresholds, and HCN measures 0-50ppm with 2.5/4.5ppm thresholds).

Beyond the standard alarms, additional thresholds can be defined for TLV (Threshold Limit Values) and STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit), giving safety managers flexibility to match alarm behavior to specific workplace exposure standards. The display can show the peak concentration measured at any given moment, with earlier registered alarms retrievable later even after acknowledgment.

Engineering Design of the Pac 8000

The Pac 8000 measures 64 x 84 x 20mm (without clip) and weighs approximately 106g (113g with clip), with sensors that tolerate air pressures between 700 and 1,300 hPa and relative humidity of 10-90% non-condensing. Its shock-proof, chemical-resistant housing meets the IP68 standard rating, with a membrane filter protecting the sensor from foreign matter such as dust and liquids—user-replaceable when heavily soiled.

Operating temperature spans -30°C to +55°C (briefly to -40°C for 1 hour, depending on sensor), with a minimum 2-year battery service life (12 months for O2 and dual-sensor variants). When hazardous gas concentrations are measured, the device triggers an audible, visual, and vibrating 360° alarm via two bright, flashing LEDs visible from all sides, with an acoustic signal reaching 90dB. The Pac 8000 logs concentrations and events along with date and time, downloadable to a PC or via the X-dock-integrated Gas Detection Connect cloud-based asset management system.

Key Features

The Pac 8000 combines specialized single-gas sensing with rugged field durability. Core capabilities include:

  • Detects 29 different gases including specialty gases NO2, O3, and COCl2 (phosgene).
  • IP68-rated shock-proof, chemical-resistant housing.
  • Fast T-90 sensor response time for quick reactions to gas exposure.
  • Minimum 2-year battery service life (12 months for O2/dual-sensor variants).
  • 360° audible, visual, and vibrating alarm reaching 90dB.
  • Data and event logger with date/time stamping, downloadable via PC.
  • D-Light functionality indicator confirms device readiness.
  • Bluetooth transmission to Dräger Gas Detection Connect system.

Industrial Applications

The Pac 8000 is well suited to oil and gas, chemical processing, and industrial safety programs across Oman requiring dedicated, precise personal monitoring of specific toxic gases. Its ability to detect specialty gases at very low ppm concentrations makes it valuable for applications involving phosgene, ozone, and other hazardous substances requiring exacting sensitivity beyond standard multi-gas monitors.

As a trusted supplier of Dräger safety equipment, Seven Star LLC supports refineries, chemical plants, and industrial safety teams throughout the Sohar and Salalah economic zones and the broader GCC region with the Pac 8000’s proven single-gas detection platform.

Why Choose Seven Star LLC for Specialty Single-Gas Detection

Specialty gases like phosgene, ozone, and nitrogen dioxide are detected at ppm concentrations low enough that sensor selection and alarm threshold configuration genuinely matter – a generic multi-gas monitor won’t deliver the sensitivity the Pac 8000’s dedicated sensors provide for these substances. Seven Star LLC’s engineers confirm the exact target gas and required TLV/STEL alarm thresholds against the customer’s actual industrial hygiene program before the device is ordered, and help plan a realistic battery and sensor replacement schedule around the platform’s minimum two-year service life. We also support Bluetooth-based fleet management setup via Gas Detection Connect for customers standardizing personal monitoring across multiple sites in Muscat, Sohar, and the broader GCC, and coordinate delivery so specialty-gas coverage isn’t left with a gap during a turnaround.

About brand

Drägerwerk is a German maker of safety and medical technology, founded in Lübeck on 1 January 1889 as Dräger & Gerling by Johann Heinrich Dräger and Carl Adolf Gerling. Its first patent was the Lubeca valve, a pressure reducer for carbon dioxide. Drägerwerk AG is listed on the stock exchange but still controlled by the founding family, led by fifth-generation chairman Stefan Dräger.

Seven Star LLC sources and supplies Dräger fixed gas transmitters, flame detectors, portable gas detectors and Dräger-Tubes for sites in Oman, and checks each part number against the manufacturer's documentation.

Dräger flame detectors on this page are the Flame 1500 and Flame 2500 (triple infrared) and the Flame 2700 (multi-infrared). Portable instruments include the Pac 8000 single-gas detector, the X-am 2500 for one to four gases and the X-am 8000 for up to seven. Short-term colorimetric tubes such as Hydrogen Sulfide 100/a (CH29101) are listed with the analyzer accessories.

Where Dräger detectors are used

Polytron transmitters and PIR 7000 heads are found on wellhead and gathering facilities, gas plants, refineries, tank farms, LNG and petrochemical units, and in water treatment chlorine rooms. Portable Dräger gas detectors serve confined space entry, hot work permits and personal H2S monitoring, which is routine on sour fields in the GCC. Detector tubes remain a simple spot check where an electronic sensor is not available for the gas.

Ordering Dräger equipment: what we need

Dräger identifies most items by a seven-digit part number, such as 8101211, and that number is the most direct route to the right quotation. For a fixed transmitter, add the target gas, measuring range, output (4-20 mA, HART or relays), housing material, cable entry thread and the required hazardous-area approval. For portables, list the sensor configuration, pump or diffusion mode and the charger or calibration accessories needed. For tubes, give the gas and the range printed on the box.
