MSA Altair 5X

The MSA MSA Altair 5X is a portable multi-gas detector. It is normally installed in a controlled safety-equipment location and carried to the work site. It is designed for atmosphere testing before and during enclosed-space or hazardous work. In operation, electrochemical, catalytic, infrared or other fitted sensors convert gas concentration into alarms. The supplied entry gives no additional verified capacity, pressure, power or dimensional figure for this model. Compared with neighbouring models, the relevant differences are sensor combination, sampling pump, data logging, wireless functions and approvals; these must be confirmed from the installed documentation rather than inferred from the model designation alone. Service and survey attention should concentrate on bump/calibration status, sensors, battery, pump/filters, alarms and sampling accessories. For exact ratings, dimensions, tolerances, test limits and model-specific settings, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
