Intended use

Dräger X-pid 8500 is a portable gas measurement device for discontinuous
measurement of the concentration of individual hazardous substances in
Analysis measurement mode in ambient workplace air and in explosion-hazard
areas.
3.3 Approvals
The approvals are given on the name plate. Pictures of the name plate and the
declaration of conformity can be found in the supplementary documentation
provided (order no. 9033879) that is included in the scope of supply of the

Operating concept

The gas detector is controlled by the mobile app. Operation primarily takes
place via the touch display and the control elements on the mobile app user
interface. The physical buttons on the control unit can also be used. The mobile
app contains 5 menu items, which can be used to navigate through different
views:
– Measure view: Display the available analysis programs for the Analysis
measurement mode.
– Calibrate view: Program for the functional test and for calibration
(calculation of the concentration and substance assignment for the Analysis
measurement mode).
– Archive view: Display of saved measurements, functional tests,
calibrations, as well as options for adjusting this data.
– Settings view: Adjustment and configuration options for substances,
analysis programs, languages, and concentration units, among others.
– User level view: Change the user level to release selected features.
The automatic notes and instructions in the mobile app guide the user through,
e.g. calibrations, step by step.
