gas detector; the calibration cradle must not be used in the Ex zone.
Intended operating area and operating conditions
Areas subject to explosion hazards, classified by zones (MQG 01**)
The instrument is intended for the use in explosion-hazard areas of Zone 0, Zone 1 or
Zone 2 or in mines at risk due to fire damp. It is intended for use within a temperature
range of –20 °C to +50 °C, and for areas in which gases of explosion groups IIA, IIB or
IIC and temperature class T3 or T4 (depending on the batteries and rechargeable
battery) may be present. If used in mines, the instrument is only to be used in areas
known to have a low risk of mechanical impact.
Areas subject to explosion hazards, classified by divisions
The instrument is intended for use in explosion-hazard areas according to Class I&II,
Div. 1 or Div. 2 within a temperature range of –20 °C to +50 °C, and for areas where
gases or dusts of groups A, B, C, D, E, F, G and temperature class T3 or T4 may be
present (depending on the rechargeable battery and batteries).

when using power pack ABT 0100:
of –20 °C to +50 °C or –20 °C to +40 °C depending on the batteries used
when using power pack HBT 0000/HBT 0100:
from –20 °C to +50 °C
and for gases of temperature class T3 or T4 (depending on the batteries and
rechargeable battery).
For applications in accordance with CSA (Canadian Standards Association), the
following should be observed:
Only the performance of the detector part of this instrument for flammable gases has
been tested. The instrument has not been approved for use in mines by the CSA.
WARNING
Only applicable to Class II certification. CSA Std. C22.2 No 152 does not have any
requirement for Class II hazardous locations and therefore this device has not been
performance tested by CSA for Class II. The sensor may become clogged and not
detect gas properly or warn the user of its inability to detect gas.

Safety instructions
WARNING
To reduce the danger of explosion, do not mix new batteries with old batteries and do
not mix batteries made by different manufacturers.
WARNING
Always disconnect the instrument from the power pack before carrying out any
maintenance operations.
WARNING
Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety.
CAUTION
Not tested in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere (>21 % O
CAUTION
Only the combustible gas detection portion of this instrument has been assessed by
CSA for performance. The instrument is not classified by CSA for use in mines.
WARNING
CSA requirement: A sensitivity test should be conducted before each use at a
concentration between 25 and 50 % of the maximum concentration of the measured
gas. The accuracy here must be between 0 and +20 % of the actual value. The
accuracy can be corrected via calibration.
).

WARNING
High off-scale readings may indicate an explosive concentration.
WARNING
Only use power packs ABT 0100 (83 22 237), HBT 0000 (83 18 704) or HBT 0100
(83 22 244). See marking on power pack for approved batteries and related
temperature class.
WARNING
Increased hydrogen concentrations within the measuring range of the Dräger Sensor
XXS H2 HC may result in false alarms due to the additive effect on the Dräger
sensors XXS H2S, and XXS CO, XXS H2S (LC) and XXS CO (LC) as well as due to
the negative effect on the Dräger Sensor XXS O2.

Operation with pump
Observe the following when performing measurements using the pump
Perform visual inspection of the probe, if necessary.
Wait for the flushing time to end.
Flush the Dräger sampling hose or Dräger probes prior to each measurement with
the air sample to be measured.
The flushing phase is necessary to minimize or eliminate any effects associated with
the use of a sampling hose or a probe, e.g. memory effects, dead volume.
The duration of the flushing phase depends on factors such as type and concentration
of the gas or vapour to be measured, material, length, diameter and age of the
sampling hose or probe. As a rule of thumb, a typical flushing time of 3 seconds per
metre can be assumed for a sampling hose (factory-new, dry, clean). This flushing time
applies in addition to the sensor response time (see instructions for use of the gas
detector used).
Example:
The flushing time for a 10 m hose is approx. 30 seconds. The sensor response time is
approx. 60 seconds in addition. The overall time before reading the gas detector
therefore is approx. 90 seconds.
The flow alarm is delayed by 10 to 30 seconds, depending on the hose length.

ToxicTwins
When the ToxicTwins feature is activated, the measuring channels of the XXS CO
sensor and the XXS HCN sensor are offset against each other in such a manner that
the device issues an alarm before the respective A1 alarm threshold is reached if both
gases are detected at the same time.
Prerequisites:
— The XXS CO and XXS HCN sensors are installed.
— The ToxicTwins feature is activated (using the Dräger CC-Vision PC software).
If the ToxicTwins feature is activated, HCN+ appears in the measured value display.
CO H2 compensation
Carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2) can occur simultaneously in workplaces in
the steel industry, refineries, sewage works, etc. Hydrogen affects the CO signal in
ordinary commercially available sensors, which leads to false alarms. The XXS CO
-CP sensor uses two sensing electrodes. One of these electrodes measures CO and
H
2
, the other one measures only H2. The difference between the two signals is
H

calculated, so that only the CO value will be displayed. For example, a hydrogen
concentration of 1000 ppm (2.5 %LEL) will only result in a maximum of 15 ppm CO
being displayed, but the CO alarm will not be triggered.
This feature is automatically available and activated if the XXS CO H

Menu implementation with the documentation of results in the instrument
memory
The setting whether the bump test is to be carried out manually or automatically is
made using the PC software Dräger CC Vision.
The "Quick bump test" or the "Extended bump test" is selected using the Dräger CC
Vision PC software.
The "Quick bump test" checks whether the gas concentration has exceeded the Alarm
1 threshold (with oxygen, the check is whether the concentration has fallen below the
Alarm 1 threshold).
In the case of the “Extended bump test”, a check is made as to whether the gas
concentration has reached the set bump test concentration within a tolerance window.
Setting on delivery: Extended bump test.
Prepare a test gas cylinder, the
volume flow must be 0.5 l/min and the
0.5 L/min
gas concentration must be higher than
the alarm threshold concentration to
be tested.

1 Turn the slots of the interlock into a horizontal position by using a screwdriver or
coin.
2 Insert the projecting tongue of the charging module (at the same time, current entry)
until it engages.
1 Close the interlock with a quarter turn (slot is positioned vertically).
Attach additional charging modules in the same way.
— Always connect or disconnect the charging modules individually and not in groups
in order to prevent the charging station from becoming damaged. During
transportation, the power pack and the charging modules should also always be
handled individually and without inserted instruments.
Position the instrument on an even and level surface.

charging module and insert it again.
If the fault still occurs, have the charging
module repaired.
It takes approx. 4 hours to fully charge an
empty rechargeable battery.
A short circuit of the charging contacts in the charging modules, e.g., by metallic
objects that have fallen in, does not result in damage to the charging station. It should,
however, be avoided due to possible heating hazards and incorrect displays on the
charging module.

In the event of a short circuit or if the power pack is overloaded:
3 The red "Overload" LED lights, and an audible alarm sounds.
— After the fault has been corrected, the alarm is switched off automatically and the
charging process is restarted.
— In the event of a power failure, the instruments already charged will be protected
from discharging.
Charging with charging module and plug-in power pack or vehicle charging
adapter
— When using the power pack (order no. 83 16 994), up to 5 instruments can be
charged at the same time, with power pack (order no. 83 15 635) up to 2 instruments.
— The power pack contained in the rechargeable battery and charging set (order
no. 83 18 785) is suitable for charging an instrument.
— When using the vehicle charging adapter (order no. 83 17 754) it is recommended
that you supply every charging module separately.
The charging process is carried out analogue to charging with the multiple charging
station.
