Calibration and Bump Testing - X-Dock 5300 | Draeger

Description

Docking and calibration station for X-am 125 single/multi-gas detectors.

Docking and calibration station for Draeger PAC personal gas detectors.

The Dräger X‑Dock 5300 is a calibration and bump (functional) testing station designed for Dräger portable gas detection instruments (especially the X-am and Pac families).

It automates and simplifies the process of verifying gas detectors’ performance (bump testing) and performing calibrations, while reducing consumption of calibration gases and ensuring thorough documentation of tests.

Key Features & Benefits

Automation & Ease of Use

• The user simply inserts the gas detector into the dock and closes the lid—the X‑Dock recognizes the sensor(s) automatically and initiates the appropriate test routines.

• It can detect all sensor combinations and perform required tests/adjustments based on connected calibration gases.

• Touchscreen interface at the master station allows intuitive operation and configuration of up to three test routines.

Reduced Gas Consumption & Faster Test Times

• Uses a reduced gas flow per module: ~300 mL/min instead of 500 mL/min, resulting in ~40% lower consumption of calibration gases.

• Typical bump test times are 8 to 15 seconds (for standard sensors such as CH₄, O₂, CO, H₂S)

• Available Variants: X-dock 5300 (PAC)[8321880], X-dock module X-am 125[8321881]

Documentation & Reporting

• All test data—including instrument status, tester identity, and results—are stored in an internal database for audit, traceability, and compliance.

• A built‑in report wizard enables generation of custom reports, and calibration certificates can be printed directly via USB-connected PostScript-compatible printers.

• Multiple X-Dock units can be networked, enabling central management of test data across many stations.

Expandability & Flexibility

• The 5300 version comes as a single‑module configuration (i.e. master + one module) suited for one gas detection instrument (X-am or Pac).

• It supports testing of multiple gases via 3 test gas inlets, plus a fresh air inlet and a waste gas outlet.

• The system is modular: later you can expand (in the 6300 / 6600 family) to up to 10 modules to test multiple detectors concurrently.

Additional Capabilities & Convenience

• Performs automatic leak tests and alarm element testing (acoustic, visual, vibration alarms) during bump testing.

• Optionally, it can charge certain Dräger detectors (e.g. X-am 1/2/5x00) during the test.

• Includes replaceable seal cartridges to maintain tightness and reduce wear.

• Supports 12 V operation (e.g. via vehicle) in addition to standard power supply, making it suitable for field or mobile setups.
