ALTAIR® 5X Multigas Detector
With MSA XCell® Sensor Technology
IT’S WHAT’S
INSIDE
THAT COUNTS
Now with
advanced PID
for VOC Detection
Because every life has a purpose…
IT’S WHAT’S INSIDE THAT COUNTS
WORKERS who face potentially hazardous situations deserve the best protection available. At MSA, we
work tirelessly to build smarter, better gas detection instruments upon which people of the world rely. First
we introduced MSA’s advanced technology with the ALTAIR 4X Multigas Detector with XCell Sensors. Now
we’re proud to offer the most advanced sensor technology available in a six-gas portable instrument:
The ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector with XCell Sensor Technology and PID option.
Built upon Durability
The ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector for combustible gases in % LEL and/or % volume range, O₂ and
toxic gas detection is as tough and functional as it looks. A rugged, rubberized polycarbonate
housing provides unsurpassed durability, including the ability to survive a 3-meter drop. Inside,
a field-proven integral pump provides consistent gas flow without the problems of externallyattached components. Ergonomic design, glove-friendly buttons and high-contrast display make
the ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector easy to use for all applications.
Powered by Performance
Toughness and durability are only part of the story. The real strength of the ALTAIR 5X Multigas
Detector comes from state-of-the-art sensor technology. By miniaturizing sensor-controlling
electronics and placing them inside the sensor itself, MSA XCell Sensors offer superior stability,
accuracy, repeatability and a typical life more than double the industry average.
MSA XCell Sensors are a breakthrough in chemical and mechanical sensor design, enabling faster
response and span calibration times, saving you time, calibration gas, maintenance costs and in
turn, money. But most importantly, saving seconds in response time can also mean saving lives.
In addition to MSA XCell Sensors, the ALTAIR 5X can be equipped with advanced PID options for
VOC detection. Our wide variety of IR sensors covers many gases and ranges including CO₂.
ADDINg MICROELECTRONICS inside
the sensors provides more control
and higher performance than
previous generations.
Flexibility & Connectivity to Meet Your Needs
MSA’s ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector is configurable with either high-resolution color or
monochrome LCD display with 18 built-in languages. MSA’s Logo Express® Service is available to
customize the color display. Interchangeable plug-and-play slots for MSA XCell Sensors indicated
means up to six gases can be monitored simultaneously.
The ALTAIR 5X is fully compatible with the MSA GALAXY GX2 Automated Test System and
MSA Link™ Pro and MSA Link Software to efficiently manage your entire fleet.
MSA XCELL SENSORS are a
breakthrough in chemical and
mechanical sensor design,
enabling faster response and span
calibration times.
Save Time, Save Money, Save Lives
Building upon decades of sensor design experience,
MSA has revolutionized sensor technology with design
breakthroughs that improve performance.
• XCell exotic SO₂, NO₂, Cl₂ and NH₃ Sensors for expanded
monitoring applications
• Sensor response and clear times in less than 15 seconds for
most common sensor configurations
With reliable, extended-life XCell Sensors, there’s no
need to replace sensors after 2 years.
• Typical life greater than 4 years for Combustible,
O₂, CO/H₂S (and variants) , CO/NO₂, CO-HC and SO₂ sensors
• Typical life greater than three years for NH₃ and Cl₂ sensors
• Combustible sensor proprietary operating mode helps
maintain poison-resistance throughout sensor life
• Bump test in less than 15 seconds for most common
• End-of-sensor-life warning gives advanced notice to user,
sensor configurations
reducing service outages
• Span calibration time of 60 seconds for most common
3-year back-to-back instrument warranty includes
LEL, O₂, CO, H₂S, SO₂, NO₂ XCell and IR sensors
sensor configurations
• Greater signal stability and repeatability under changing or
extreme environmental conditions
• All XCell Sensors are capable of plug-and-play installation for
2-year warranty on NH₃ and Cl₂;
minimum 12-month warranty on other sensors
easy reconfiguration
Count on the ALTAIR 5X Multigas Detector
Exclusive MotionAlert™ and InstantAlert™ features make the ALTAIR 5X Multigas
Detector ideal for applications such as confined space monitoring. MotionAlert
activates when a user becomes disabled and motionless, quickly alerting others as to
the disabled user’s location. And with a simple push of a button, InstantAlert
enables users to manually warn others of potentially hazardous situations.
The ALTAIR 5X is the Long-Life leader. To prove it, the instrument comes with a full
3-year warranty,* an entire year longer than the industry average, so that you can
depend upon the ALTAIR 5X to withstand the punishment that other portable gas
detectors can’t.
