The ALTAIR 5X Gas Detector with Bluetooth wireless technology, integrated pump and PID option for VOC detection measures up to 6 gases simultaneously. Clearance measurements can be performed remotely using sampling line and floating probe. Driven by advanced MSA XCell® Sensor Technology, the ALTAIR 5X delivers faster response time, better stability, accuracy, longer service life, and cost savings. Inside, a field-proven integral pump provides consistent gas flow without the problems of externally attached components. Ergonomic design, glove-friendly buttons and a high-contrast display make the ALTAIR 5X multigas detector easy to use for confined space applications.
The Workman Tripod is ideal for performing rescue work in confined spaces, and helps to make a vertical descent easy. Weighing just 19.5 kg with a maximum extension length of 245 cm, this aluminium tripod is an ideal anchorage point for work assignments with limited staff. It is suitable for fall arrest, rescue, retrieval or evacuation and loads of up to 140 kg for personnel and 225 kg for materials. Installation is intuitive and fast taking 2 minutes only, don’t just take our word for it, watch the video below. MSA complete confined space entry kits are designed for multiple confined space applications.
With the MSA AirXpress 2 Fire, MSA concentrated on developing a dedicated product which is reliable,
ergonomic and durable. Its intuitive functionality will meet all of your first responder needs. Like all MSA SCBA, the AirXpress 2 Fire is fully customisable with a variety of configuration options. The added benefits of several updated design components make this SCBA ideal for extreme working environments, all the while maintaining the quality you have come to expect in our product design.
The versatile ALTAIR 4XR Gas Detector offers constant gas monitoring, ideal for confined space workers. Together with ALTAIR Pump Probe can be quickly converted into a pumped detector for remote pre-entry atmosphere analysis. ALTAIR 4XR has IP 68 rating and withstands multiple drops from 7.5 m, exceeding the military standard MILSTD-810 drop test requirements (25 drops from 1.2 m). It is equipped with MSA XCell® sensors providing longer service life and run time and faster response times that help save lives. With its 4-year warranty ALTAIR 4XR is equipped with Bluetooth connectivity allowing real-time awareness with live gas readings and alarm notifications. For additional safety, ALTAIR 4XR features the MotionAlert mandown alarm and InstantAlert manual alarm.
