Gas Detector with LEL O2 CO H2S PID Sensors
MSA Safety Works ALTAIR 5X Gas Detector – LEL/O₂/CO/H₂S/PID, Color Display, 10' Line & 1' Probe
Product Overview
The MSA Safety Works ALTAIR 5X is a professional multi-gas detector designed for monitoring several atmospheric hazards with one portable instrument. This configuration combines LEL, oxygen (O₂), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), and PID detection with a clear color display.
The Deluxe configuration includes a 10-foot sampling line and 1-foot probe, allowing users to sample an atmosphere from a distance rather than placing the detector directly in the area being tested.
With its multi-gas capability, built-in sampling system, and durable design, the ALTAIR 5X is well suited to applications such as confined-space monitoring, plant maintenance, oil and gas operations, utilities, construction, mining, firefighting, and general industry.
Key Features

10-foot sampling line for remote atmosphere sampling
1-foot straight sampling probe
Deluxe configuration
Built-in pump for drawing samples through the sampling line
MSA XCell Sensor Technology for applicable gas sensors
PID sensor provides detection capability for applicable volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
MotionAlert and InstantAlert functions
Data logging capability
Durable charcoal-colored housing
Designed for demanding professional gas-monitoring applications
Gas Detection Configuration
| Sensor | Purpose |
|---|---|
| LEL | Monitors combustible gas concentrations relative to the Lower Explosive Limit |
| O₂ | Measures oxygen concentration in the atmosphere |
| CO | Detects carbon monoxide |
| H₂S | Detects hydrogen sulfide |
| PID | Detects applicable volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using photoionization technology |
The exact measuring ranges, alarm limits, resolution, and sensor performance depend on the installed sensor configuration and applicable approval.

Remote Sampling with 10-Foot Line
The included 10-foot sampling line allows the ALTAIR 5X to draw an air sample from a location away from the operator. This can be particularly useful when checking potentially hazardous areas before entering them.
The accompanying 1-foot probe provides a practical sampling point for accessing the atmosphere being tested. MSA also identifies the 1-foot straight PEEK probe as part of its ALTAIR 5X accessory range.
Color Display
The ALTAIR 5X uses a color display to make gas readings, alarms, and instrument information easier to interpret. Visual status indications help operators quickly recognize normal conditions and situations requiring attention.
Built-In Pump
The integrated pump draws air through the sampling line and probe into the detector. This makes the instrument suitable for remote sampling applications where the user needs to evaluate an atmosphere before approaching or entering the area.
Designed for Professional Applications
The ALTAIR 5X family is intended for demanding environments and is used across several industries, including:
Confined-space entry and monitoring
Oil and gas
Plant maintenance and turnarounds
Construction
Mining
Utilities
Fire and emergency response
General industrial operations
Welding applications
MSA identifies these as application areas for the ALTAIR 5X family.
What's Included
1 × MSA ALTAIR 5X Multi-Gas Detector
Color-display instrument
LEL / O₂ / CO / H₂S / PID sensor configuration
10-foot sampling line
1-foot sampling probe
The exact contents should be checked against the seller's package description and part number before purchase.
Important Safety Information
Gas detectors are safety instruments and must be selected according to the hazards present, required detection levels, workplace conditions, and applicable regulations.
The ALTAIR 5X should be operated, bump tested, calibrated, maintained, and serviced according to MSA's current instructions. Approvals can vary according to the specific part number, sensor configuration, and country or region, so the approval label on the actual instrument should be checked before use.
Summary
The MSA ALTAIR 5X 10165446 combines five-gas detection—LEL, O₂, CO, H₂S, and PID—with a color display and remote sampling capability. Its 10-foot sampling line and 1-foot probe make it especially useful for atmospheric checks where the operator needs to sample from a safer or more convenient distance.
This Deluxe configuration is a strong choice for professional gas-monitoring applications requiring a versatile, portable instrument with comprehensive atmospheric detection capabilities.
