First Commissioning
Before using the device for the first time, insert the batteries
supplied or a charged NiMH power pack T4 (order no.
83 18 704), refer to chapter "Replacing the Batteries". The
Dräger X-am 5000 is ready for operation.
Operation
Switching on the device
Press and hold the [OK] key for approx. 3 seconds until the
countdown » 3 . 2 . 1 « shown in the display has expired.
– All the display segments, including the visual, audible and vi-
bration alarms, are activated for a short time.
– The software version is displayed.
– The device performs a self test.
– The next sensor to be calibrated/adjusted is displayed, along
with the remaining days to the next calibration/adjustment,
e.g. » Ex %UEG CAL 20 «.
– The time until the bump test interval elapses is displayed in
days, e.g. » bt 123 «.
– All alarm setpoints A1 and A2 as well as »

– During the running-in period of the sensors, the respective
display of the measured value flashes and the special
symbol »

sued during the running-in period of the sensors. For details
on accelerated warm-up, see the Technical Manual.
Press the [OK] key to cancel the display of the activation
sequence.

Switching off the device
Press and hold the [OK] key and the [ + ] key simultaneously
until the countdown » 3 . 2 . 1 « shown in the display has
elapsed.
– Before the device is switched off, the visual, audible and vi-
bration alarms are activated for a short time.
Before entering the workplace
Check and, if necessary, adjust the calibration before carrying
out safety-relevant measurements. A bump test must be per-
formed according to the national regulations.
Switch on the device. The current measured values are
shown in the display.
– Observe any warning »
The device can be operated normally. If the warning mes-
sage does not disappear automatically during operation,
the device must be serviced after the end of use.
The device is not ready to measure and requires mainte-
nance.
The presence of catalyst poisons in the measured gas (e.g.
volatile silicone, sulphur, heavy metal compounds or halogen-
ated hydrocarbons) can damage the Cat Ex sensor. If the
Cat Ex sensor cannot be calibrated to the target concentra-
tion anymore, the sensor must be replaced.
The display of the Cat Ex sensor may be incorrect in an oxy-
gen-poor atmosphere.
Electrical operating safety (Ex protection) is not guaranteed in
an oxygen-enriched atmosphere.
Check that the gas inlet opening on the device is not cov-

Identifying Alarms
An alarm is displayed visually, audibly and through vibration in a
specific pattern.
WARNING
Concentration pre-alarm A1
The alarm is indicated by an intermittent
alarm message:

The pre-alarm A1 is not self-latching and disappears when the
concentration has dropped below the alarm threshold A1.
In the case of A1, a single tone is audible and the alarm LED
flashes.
In the case of A2, a double tone is audible and the alarm LED
flashes twice.
