Professional multi-gas detector with simultaneous detection of LEL, NO2, CO, and H2S. Features MotionAlert safety technology, integrated pump, robust polycarbonate housing, and comprehensive international certifications for confined space applications.
The MSA ALTAIR 5X is a professional-grade multi-gas detector designed for hazardous confined space applications and industrial safety monitoring. This robust portable gas detection instrument simultaneously detects up to six different gases including combustible gases (LEL calibrated to pentane), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S). The detector features a monochrome display with adjustable back-lit functionality and integrated datalogging capabilities with a minimum 200-hour recording capacity.
Engineered with durability and user convenience in mind, the ALTAIR 5X features a polycarbonate robust housing that has been tested to survive a 10-foot drop. The device includes an integrated pump function, eliminating the need for external accessories, and features glove-friendly buttons for easy operation in protective equipment. The detector is fully compatible with MSA Galaxy GX2 and MSA Link Pro systems, making it an excellent choice for fleet management and centralized monitoring.
Innovative safety features include MotionAlert technology that activates when a user becomes disabled or motionless to alert others of their location, and InstantAlert functionality allowing manual alerts during hazardous situations. With support for 18 languages, rechargeable lithium-ion or AA alkaline battery options, and comprehensive international certifications including ATEX, IECEx, and CSA approval, the ALTAIR 5X is the ideal solution for confined space work, emergency response, and industrial hazard detection.
