MSA ALTAIR 5X Gas Detctor (Mono) - LEL / O2 / SO2 / CO / CO2

MSA ALTAIR 5X Gas Detctor (Mono) - LEL / O2 / SO2 / CO / CO2

The Altair 5X from MSA is a multi gas detector which is able to monitor combustible gases (LEL), oxygen (O2), carbon monoxide (CO), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and also carbon dioxide (CO2).  It’s ideal for hazardous situations.

This particular monitor has a monochrome display.

It’s possible to configure the Altair 5X with a 0-5% Vol CH4 sensor as an alternative to the standard 0-100% LEL.  Please ask for details.

Exclusive features of the Altair 5X make the instrument ideal for confined space applications.  MotionAlert activates when a user becomes disabled or motionless and shows others where the user is situated.  InstantAlert allows you to manually alert others to a hazardous situation.
