A durable, portable gas detector is an efficient way for industrial personnel to maintain safety compliance in multiple elements and work applications.
Easily detect escaping gases with a portable gas detector
Leaking gas can be deadly, which is why it’s crucial specialists use sensor technology that’s both reliable and capable of being roughed up in multiple job site conditions.
MSA Safety’s Altair Multigas Detector series, for example, utilizes XCell® sensor technology that provides real-time incident awareness to team members, supervisors, safety managers and others. The Altair series has been proven to detect the following twice as fast as the industry average:
- LEL (lower explosive limit)
- O2 (oxygen)
- H2S (hydrogen sulfide)
- CO (carbon monoxide)
- SO2 (sulfur dioxide)
- NO2 (nitrogen dioxide)
