The MSA ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector is a versatile and reliable device capable of measuring up to six gases simultaneously. Specifically configured for LEL (Lower Explosive Limit), O2 (Oxygen), CO (Carbon Monoxide), and H2S (Hydrogen Sulfide), this detector is driven by advanced MSA XCell® Sensor Technology. This technology ensures faster response times, greater stability, improved accuracy, and longer sensor life, resulting in significant cost savings over the instrument's lifespan.

Key features of the ALTAIR 5X include:

• Durable Design: The rugged polycarbonate housing is overmolded for enhanced durability, capable of withstanding drops from up to 10 feet (3 meters). The device is also IP65-certified for dust and water resistance.
• User-Friendly Interface: Large, glove-friendly buttons and a bright display make operation straightforward, even in challenging conditions.
• Integrated Pump: The field-proven integral pump ensures consistent gas flow without the need for external attachments.
• Safety Features: The MotionAlert feature notifies others if the user becomes immobile, while the InstantAlert feature allows users to manually trigger all alarms to alert others of hazardous situations.
• Sensor Longevity: MSA XCell sensors have a typical lifespan of more than four years for most configurations, providing reliable long-term performance.
• Wireless Capabilities: The ALTAIR 5X includes standard wireless Bluetooth connectivity, allowing for easy data transfer and device management.

This detector is ideal for use in a variety of industries, including fire service, construction, mining, and oil and gas, where accurate and reliable gas detection is critical for safety.
