The MSA ALTAIR 4X Multigas Detector with XCell Sensor Technology is a portable, diffusion-based gas detector designed for use by trained personnel in hazardous industrial environments. It simultaneously detects up to four gases from a wide range of sensor options and is widely used in oil and gas, confined space entry, fire service, welding, and general industrial safety applications.
Gas Detection:
Combustible Gas (LEL): 0–100% LEL
Oxygen (O₂): 0–25% Vol
Carbon Monoxide (CO): 0–1,999 ppm
Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S): 0–200 ppm
Also configurable for SO₂ and NO₂
Sensor Technology: MSA XCell proprietary ASIC-based electrochemical and catalytic bead sensors
Sensor Life: >4 years (double the industry average)
Response Time: Sensors respond up to 2× faster than the industry average; response and clear times under 15 seconds
Calibration Gas Saving: Uses 50% less calibration gas per minute than the industry average
Weight: 7.9 oz (instrument with battery and clip)
Dimensions: 4.4 × 3.00 × 1.37 inches (L × W × H, without clip)
Battery Runtime: 24 hours nominal at room temperature
IP Rating: IP67 (dust-tight and water-resistant)
Drop Resistance: Withstands a 6 m (20 ft) drop onto concrete
Operating Temperature: -20°C to +50°C (-4°F to +122°F)
Alarm Types: 4 LED lights (audible 95 dB typical, vibrating alarm, visual)
Alarm Features: MotionAlert (man-down), InstantAlert (manual distress), STEL and TWA monitoring
Certifications: ATEX (94/9/EC), IECEx, CSA, MSHA (mining version); ATEX classification II 1G Ex ia IIC T4 / II 2G Ex ia d IIC T4, IP67
Connectivity: IR datalink port for MSA Link software
Display: High-contrast LCD with backlight; large glove-friendly buttons
End-of-Sensor-Life Warning: Yes — gives advance warning to minimise downtime
Compatible Test Systems: MSA GALAXY GX2 Automated Test System
