Designed for flexibility, it can detect between one and four gases with a broad range of sensor options, allowing it to adapt to various applications.

Description

The Ventis MX4 Gas Detector is a vital tool for environments where toxic gases pose a risk, offering a reliable and user-friendly solution.

The device can draw gas samples from distances of up to 100 feet and includes an optional sampling pump for added functionality. Its lightweight, compact design makes it highly portable, while still providing comprehensive multi-gas protection.

An extended-range battery ensures up to 20 hours of run time without the pump, supporting long shifts and reducing the need for recharging. When used with iNet, the Ventis MX4 delivers enhanced gas detection capabilities, helping to improve safety and reduce maintenance burdens.

FAQs
What gases can the Ventis MX4 detect?

The Ventis MX4 supports detection of up to four gases simultaneously. Available sensors include:

  • LEL (Methane or Pentane)

  • Oxygen (O₂)

  • Carbon Monoxide (CO)

  • Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S)

  • Sulfur Dioxide (SO₂)

  • Nitrogen Dioxide (NO₂)

  • CO/H₂ Low (for environments with hydrogen interference)

Is the Ventis MX4 suitable for confined space entry?

Yes. The Ventis MX4 is available in both diffusion and aspirated (pumped) versions. For confined space entries, you can use the Ventis Slide-on Pump, which allows for remote sampling up to 100 feet. This design enables seamless transition from personal monitoring to confined space entry without the need for multiple devices.

What are the battery options and runtimes?

The Ventis MX4 offers several battery configurations:

  • Standard Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery: Up to 12 hours of runtime.

  • Extended Range Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery: Up to 20 hours of runtime.

  • Alkaline Battery Pack: Uses AAA batteries; runtime varies based on usage.

What is the operating temperature range of the Ventis MX4?

The Ventis MX4 operates effectively within a temperature range of -20°C to +50°C (-4°F to +122°F). Operating outside this range may affect instrument accuracy and alarm performance.
