Dräger Bodyguard® 1000 — no-motion and warning signal device (PASS) for breathing apparatus
The Dräger Bodyguard 1000 is an electronic no-motion and distress signal device (PASS) that increases the safety of the breathing-apparatus user. When switched on, it performs a full operating test, monitors user activity and, in the event of no motion or distress, generates clear alarm signals. It is equipped with a thermal alarm that warns of a sudden rise in ambient temperature. LEDs allow team members to recognize one another. It works with Dräger PSS apparatus (3000/4000/5000/7000).
The Dräger Bodyguard 1000 is an electronic motionless and distress signal unit (PASS) that increases the safety of the breathing apparatus user. After being switched on, it performs a full functional test, monitors the user's activity and, in the event of motionlessness or a hazard, generates clear alarm signals. It is equipped with a thermal alarm that warns of a rapid rise in the ambient temperature. LEDs enable team members to recognise one another. It works with Dräger PSS apparatus (3000/4000/5000/7000).
Note: The Bodyguard 1000 is part of a personal protection system — mounted on a Dräger PSS breathing apparatus. Full electrical parameters (power supply, sound level) — to be completed from the current manufacturer datasheet.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What does a PASS signal unit do?
It automatically alerts the surroundings when the user stops moving (e.g. loss of consciousness) and also allows help to be summoned manually — crucial when working alone.
Does the Bodyguard 1000 fit my apparatus?
It works with Dräger PSS apparatus (3000/4000/5000/7000). We will help select and integrate the right electronics.
