Gases engulf our entire planet and create biospheres, yet they can also have harmful and destructive effects. For over 125 years, Dräger has focused on how to discover, accurately measure, and reliably monitor them.

Clean air free from contaminants is a basic condition for us to live and work. Where hazardous substances make safe breathing difficult or impossible, reliable respiratory protection is required.

Many hazards cannot be detected by human senses: toxic gases, oxygen deficiency, combustible gases and vapours. All these hazards pose a serious threat to human life and plant safety in many branches of industry. Portable gas detectors alert a worker early and increase occupational safety.

In an industrial facility, hazardous substances are part of the daily routine. Dräger’s comprehensive range of fixed gas detectors and controllers includes a broad spectrum of Dräger sensors for measuring toxic and flammable gases and vapours as well as oxygen.

In many industrial facilities, employees must work in areas where hazardous substances are present, or where the level of oxygen and amount of toxic substances may change at any time.
