Highlights

Measuring combustible gases and vapors is essential for the safety of your people and your facilities. Intended for Dräger's fixed gas detectors, Catalytic Bead DrägerSensors® are designed for continuous monitoring and detection of combustible gases and vapors—with different versions for different applications and concentrations.

Catalytic bead technology: the choice for potentially explosive environments

Catalytic Bead DrägerSensors are based on the catalytic bead detection principle, one of the only technology acknowledged in the industry for detecting and measuring detection principle for combustible gases such as hydrogen.

Performance in extreme environments

Catalytic Bead DrägerSensors Ex PR M—for poisonous substances
Catalytic Bead DrägerSensors Ex PR M contain pellistors that show longer endurance under the influence of poison substances than conventional types.

Innovation—Double Detector Measuring

The DrägerSensor achieves optimum compensation by using the patented Double Detector principle with 2 active pellistors to reduce measurement drifts between the detector and compensator. The better the compensation, the better the performance.
