MSA ALTAIR Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) 5/10 ppm Gas Detector

The Altair is a maintenance-free single gas detector from MSA and features a high-performing, reliable Hydrogen Sulphide sensor with an alarm range of 5-10ppm. 
It’s ideal for industrial applications where detection of toxic gas is necessary.

The MSA Altair can be used in tough environments and using the rugged suspension clip will allow you to wear your detector almost anywhere. 

This single gas detector doesn’t require any additional accessories to carry out a simple bump check which can be done with one button press.  Results from this are displayed on screen for 24 hours, allowing you to see the information at a glance.

Other testing equipment available for the Altair is the QuickCheck, Galaxy which is a standalone calibration test system and the JetEye USB IR dongle for downloading data.
