The rugged, multi-featured ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector boasts several options that provide maximum safety and make it easy to use in even the most demanding situations. It features large buttons for easy use, and its polycarbonate housing protects the detector for drops of up to 10 ft (3 m). The detector also boasts the exclusive MotionAlert™, which lets others know if the user has become immobile, and InstantAlert™, a manual alarm that alerts others if a dangerous situation has arisen. The glow-in-the-dark housing makes it easy to see in a confined space, while the large buttons and bright display makes operation possible even when the user is wearing gloves.
The ALTAIR 4X is an extremely durable Multigas Detector that simultaneously measures up to four gases from a wide range of XCell(R) sensor options including combustible gases, O₂, CO, H₂S, SO₂ and NO₂. The ALTAIR 4X Detector surpasses industry standards in several crucial areas. Its four-year sensor life is 60% longer than the industry average, while its 24-hour run time exceeds the industry average by 71%. This versatile portable detector is a perfect match for industries ranging from fire fighting to welding, and its digital sensor output makes it less likely to suffer from RF interference. The unit features exclusive MotionAlert™, which lets others know if the user has become immobile, and InstantAlert™, a manual alarm that alerts others of potentially dangerous situations. This rugged unit is designed to withstand a drop of up to 20 ft (6m) and uses less than half as much calibration gas as the industry average.
MSA’s new ALTAIR® 4X Mining Multigas Detector is driven by XCell® Sensor Technology with ASIC design.Technology offers durability and performance for mining applications. Methane-optimized catalytic bead sensor provides increased stability over time. Dependable multigas detector tests for LEL, oxygen, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide.
The Sirius Multigas Detector integrates MSA's proprietary patent-pending PID sensor into a durable four-gas detector that's designed and built for safety and reliability across multiple applications and hazards. Fast response times let users constantly monitor for both VOCs and combustible, toxic, or oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
The Solaris Multigas Detector has all the features you want and need in a portable multigas detector—including low cost and easy-to-use compact size. The Solaris Mutigas Detector offers simultaneous carbon monoxide, oxygen, hydrogen sulfide, and combustible gas detection with both audible and vibrating alarms. Powered by a rechargeable lithium ion battery for 14+ hours of run time and a recharge time under 4 hours.
Designed for superior lifespan—patented sensors operate for over two years—and high performance, the ALTAIR Single-Gas Detector is the smart choice for market-leading, cost-effective gas monitors. Features sensor options for carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, and oxygen coupled with LED/audible/vibrating alarms. Superior dust/water protection, high RFI resistance, and one-button operation provide heightened safety, plus increased durability and ease-of-use.
ALTAIR® Pro Single-Gas DetectorDesigned for superior lifespan—patented sensors operate for over two years—and high performance, the ALTAIR Single-Gas Detector is the smart choice for market-leading, cost-effective gas monitors. Features sensor options for carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, and oxygen coupled with LED/audible/vibrating alarms. Superior dust/water protection, high RFI resistance, and one-button operation provide heightened safety, plus increased durability and ease-of-use.
Based on the industry-standard ALTAIR Single-Gas Detector—but with added features and functionality—ALTAIR Pro toxic gas and oxygen detectors combine reliable detection and LED/audible/flashing/vibrating alarms with clear, backlit LCD displays. Electrochemical sensors measure concentrations of toxic gas (ammonia, carbon monoxide, chlorine, chlorine dioxide, hydrogen cyanide, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen dioxide, phosphine and sulfur dioxide) or percent oxygen. Purpose-built for superior dust and water protection, excellent impact resistance and excellent RFI performance.
