| Video Discription | The toxic twins (CO + HCN) create a deadly chemical asphyxiant that may put firefighters and victims into cardiac arrest at the time of the fire and may cause cancer decades later. Because the combination of CO and HCN is exponentially more harmful than exposure to these agents individually, measuring each gas against its single alarm threshold is not ideal for overhaul operations. The current method analyzes the alarm threshold for each gas separately—without considering the synergistic effect of the gases. No alarm would sound unless the individual levels exceeded the standard A1 alarm levels of 2.5 parts per million (or ppm) of HCN and 35 ppm of CO—even though the combined levels were lethal. But with the new toxic twin signal processing technology in the Dräger X-am® 5000 multi-gas detector, you’re protected against the combined effect of CO and HCN. This patented technology measures both gas values and then adds them together. An alarm is triggered by scaling the concentration of both substances. So let’s say we have 2 ppm of HCN and 25 ppm of CO. While both individual levels are under the A1 alarm levels, the combination of the two gases is high enough to trigger an alarm. Even at 1.5 ppm HCN and 20 ppm CO, the concentrations will trigger the alarm. The result is increased firefighter safety during overhaul. Dräger’s patented toxic twins alarm function enables the Dräger X-am 5000 to measure CO and HCN against a combined threshold, which increases firefighter safety during overhaul. https://adamsfire.com/component/virtuemart/?page=shop.browse&category_id=39 |
