Dräger X-plore 8700

Powered Air Purifying Respirators
  • Powered-air purifying respirator for long-term use without breathing resistance
  • ATEX and IECEx certification and dedicated safety functions
  • Compatible with a broad range of headpieces to fit any application
The X-plore 8700 is specially designed for work areas that require explosion protection and features dedicated ATEX safety functions accordingly.
The extensive filter portfolio offers effective protection against a wide range of respiratory risks and hazardous substances such as particles, aerosols, vapours and gases.
In laboratory environments, such as in the pharmaceutical industry, hazardous substances such as gases, vapours or dusts can occur that are potentially explosive.
For optimised weight distribution, the belt carrying system for the X-plore 8700 can be connected to a shoulder carrying system. A device cover can also be used to protect the blower unit from contamination.
In paint shops, a potentially explosive atmosphere must always be expected, as liquid coating materials can be flammable in the air in a finely dispersed state. If head protection is not mandatory, the combination of the X-plore 8700 with our face shield is a good choice.
Oil and gas are extracted, transported, stored and processed under the harshest conditions. In these challenging environments, the X-plore 8700 in combination with one of our helmet variants ensures optimum safety.
When working in explosive environments with hazardous materials like in the chemical industry, a variety of substances can pose a health hazard. The combination of the X-plore 8700 and a tight-fitting headpiece like the X-plore 6300 full-face mask is a suitable solution.
