The readings recorded by the MSA Altair Pro Single-Gas Detector can be easily viewed on its LCD display!
Features & Applications:
The MSA Altair Pro Single-Gas Detector uses highly accurate electrochemical sensors to measure concentrations of Hydrogen Sulfide. This measurement is clearly displayed on the instrument's LCD screen. The detector is fast-responding and has clear alarm functions to alert the user. It automatically records the last 50 alarm or test events and has active datalogging. To read data or change alarm set points simply connect the unit to an MSA infrared adapter using the built-in IR communication port.
The innovative Altair Pro is based on the design of the very popular Altair Single-Gas Detector, but with added features and functionality. It features superior dust and water protection, excellent impact resistance, great RFI performance, and an extremely effective alarm system. Adjustable alarm set points are offered for LOW and HIGH levels on all units. A distinct alarm is indicated by two bright flashing LEDs, a piercing audible alarm, a flashing notification on the LCD, and an internal vibrating alarm, helping to ensure that no alarm condition will go by unnoticed.
With current sensor options for CO, H2S or O2, the Altair Pro Single-Gas Detector will provide worry-free performance and stand up to the roughest handling in even the toughest industrial environments. The sensors and battery can easily be replaced to keep the unit performing perfectly for years. Its rubberized armor housing and one-button operation provide the durability and simplicity you expect.
