The MSA ALTAIR® 5X Multigas Detector Color Display, Part No. 10116928, is a professional 4-gas detector designed to simultaneously monitor LEL, O₂, CO, and H₂S. It features a high-resolution color display, built-in sampling pump, MSA XCell® sensors, Bluetooth connectivity, MotionAlert™ and InstantAlert™ alarms, and up to 20 hours of rechargeable battery runtime.
Product Overview
The MSA ALTAIR® 5X Multigas Detector Color Display (10116928) is a rugged portable gas detection instrument designed for demanding industrial environments where reliable atmospheric monitoring is essential.
This configuration simultaneously detects LEL, oxygen (O₂), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) using advanced MSA XCell® sensors for fast and accurate gas detection. The integrated sampling pump allows workers to test atmospheres remotely using the included 10 ft sampling hose and 1 ft probe, making the detector well suited for confined spaces and hard-to-reach areas.
A high-resolution color display provides clear, easy-to-read gas readings and instrument information. The detector also incorporates MotionAlert™ man-down and InstantAlert™ panic alarms to provide additional worker protection during hazardous operations.
Bluetooth connectivity enables compatibility with ALTAIR Connect and MSA Link for instrument management and data handling. The rechargeable battery provides up to 20 hours of runtime, while compatibility with the GALAXY® GX2 Automated Test System supports efficient bump testing and calibration.
