Msa Altair 5x Pid Multigas Detector

[Reginald Hanfy]

TheMSA ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector is a rugged instrument that boasts several options that provide maximum safety and make it easy to use in even the most demanding situations. The ALTAIR 5X is capable of measuring up to 6 gases simultaneously and is driven by advanced MSA XCell Sensor Technology. These sensors offer superior response time, stability, accuracy, and reliability together with an extended service life. It is now also available with an integrated PID sensor for VOC detection.

The ALTAIR 5X multigas detector tests levels of combustible gases in LEL and/or volume percentage range, oxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, ammonia, chlorine and many others depending on sensor configuration. A field-proven integral pump provides consistent gas flow without the problems of externally- attached components. Results are clearly shown on the high resolution, customizable monochrome or optional color display which provides crystal clear visibility indoors or out, even in bright sunlight.

The ALTAIR 5X multigas detector features large buttons for easy use, even with gloves, and its rugged IP 65 certified polycarbonate housing provides unsurpassed durability, including the ability to survive a 10ft (3m) drop. 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 versatile MSA Link allows user to transmit data to a computer while unit is also the GALAXY GX2 System-compatible for automatic testing, calibration and record keeping. Over 18 hours of run-time is provided by the quick-recharge Li-ion battery pack.

The ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector for LEL, O2, and toxic gas detection is as tough and functional as it looks. A rugged polycarbonate housing provides unsurpassed durability, including the ability to survive a 10-foot drop. Inside, a field-proven integral pump provides consistent gas flow without the problems of externally-attached components. Ergonomic design, glove-friendly buttons, and high-contrast display make the ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector easy to use in all applications.

Powered by Performance

Toughness and durability aren?t the whole story. The real strength of the ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector comes from new sensor technology. MSA XCell Sensors have a typical life of more than double the industry average, and are engineered using MSA?s proprietary application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) design. By miniaturizing the sensors? controlling electronics and placing them inside the sensor itself, MSA XCell Sensors offer superior stability, accuracy, and repeatability. MSA XCell Sensors are a breakthrough in chemical and mechanical sensor design, enabling faster response and span calibration times. With less time spent on calibration and bump tests, you save calibration gas, maintenance costs, and in turn, save money. But most importantly, in your industry, saving seconds on response time can also mean saving lives. In addition to MSA XCell Sensors, the ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector can also be equipped with our wide variety of IR sensors covering many gases and ranges including CO2.

Count on the ALTAIR 5X Detector

Exclusive MotionAlert? and InstantAlert? features make the ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector ideal for applications such as confined space monitoring. MotionAlert feature activates when a user becomes disabled and motionless, quickly alerting others to the disabled user?s location. And with a simple push of a button, InstantAlert feature enables users to manually alert others to potentially hazardous situations.

Flexibility to Meet Your Demands

MSA?s ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector provides many options to fit various applications. The detector is configurable with either a high-resolution color or monochrome LCD display with multilingual capabilities. MSA?s Logo Express? Service option is available to customize the color display. The detector is easily configurable with interchangeable plug-and-play sensor slots for MSA XCell

Sensors. Up to six gases can be monitored simultaneously. Furthermore, this multigas detector offers optional glow-in-the-dark instrument housing for IR sensor-equipped units. The ALTAIR 5x Multigas Detector?s lithium-ion battery lasts up to 20 hours, allowing it to be used over multiple shifts. An alkaline battery pack is also available as an accessory. MSA?s ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector is fully compatible with the MSA GALAXY? Automated Test System and MSA Link? Software.
