Safety technology provider Dräger has announced the launch of a new powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) for the food and beverage manufacturing industry.
The Dräger X-plore 8000 has evolved from advanced Dräger technology to ensure individuals working in the harshest environments remain safe and protected. In any situation where there is a chance workers could be exposed to contaminated air such as chemical hazards, the X-plore 8000 provides optimal air purification.
Combining comfort and intuitive handling with intelligent electronics for maximum safety, the X-plore 8000 unit recognises the connected headgear and automatically adjusts to the correct minimum flow rate.
The equipment also features a robust and durable design making it ideal for daily use in harsh environments in the food and beverage sector. It has been designed to provide the best possible protection, whilst enabling the wearer to focus fully on their day-to-day tasks, Dräger said.
Dräger’s Gavin Peacock said: “We’re very excited to launch the new X-plore 8000 to the food and beverage industry. It marks a significant improvement to our current PAPR portfolio and offers users the highest safety, comfort and reliability under the most challenging conditions.
“The air we breathe is the most fundamental element of life and we know that when faced with respiratory hazards on a daily basis, our customers want to be able to get the job done whilst knowing they’re safe and protected. The X-plore 8000 is a product you can trust and it offers everyone in food and beverage manufacturing the security they need to get on with the job.
“As with all our new products, we have undergone extensive field trials and testing, with a lot of very positive feedback from our customers and distributors.”
