Professional multi-gas detector with XCell sensors for LEL, O2, CO, and H2S detection. Features 24-hour battery, datalogging, MotionAlert, InstantAlert, and IP68 rating. Rugged charcoal design survives 25ft drops. Ideal for fire service, mining, oil & gas industries.
The MSA Altair 4XR is a professional-grade multi-gas detector designed for reliable, real-time detection of combustible gases, oxygen, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulphide levels using advanced XCell sensors. This rugged and dependable instrument features charcoal housing and is engineered to withstand demanding industrial environments while providing accurate measurements across four critical gas parameters. The detector is suitable for use across multiple industries including fire service, contracting, industrial operations, mining, oil and gas, and utilities sectors.
This advanced multi-gas detector incorporates sophisticated safety features including datalogging capabilities that can record more than 500 event logs, MotionAlert functionality to notify others when the user becomes immobile, and InstantAlert feature to warn of potentially dangerous situations. The device has been rigorously tested to survive 25 drops from 4 feet and an incidental 25-foot drop onto concrete, with IP68 rating ensuring complete protection against dust and water ingress up to 2 meters for at least 1 hour. The compliance feature allows quick visual verification of bump testing status.
The MSA Altair 4XR comes complete with a rechargeable Li-polymer battery offering 24-hour runtime with less than 4-hour charge time, a charger, calibration cap, and short tubing. Compatible with the MSA Galaxy GX2 stand and upgradeable with the MSA ALTAIR Pump Probe for pumped applications, this detector represents the latest evolution from the MSA Altair 4X with enhanced reliability and performance. Every unit is manufacturer-calibrated and then recalibrated by the in-house team prior to dispatch, ensuring immediate operational readiness.
