The device provides numerical values and bar graphs for easy interpretation. For combustible gases, readings are displayed as a percentage of the lower explosive limit (LEL). For toxic gases like CO and H2S, readings are shown in ppm. Oxygen levels are displayed as a percentage of the atmosphere. Understanding these readings is critical for assessing safety and taking appropriate actions. Always refer to the manual for specific gas interpretation guidelines.

6.2 Alarm Conditions and Responses

The MSA Altair 5X triggers alarms for dangerous gas levels or low oxygen; Visual, audible, and vibrational alerts notify users of potential hazards. Alarms activate when gas concentrations exceed safe thresholds or oxygen levels drop below 19.5%. Users must immediately evacuate the area, wear breathing apparatus if required, and follow established safety protocols. Never ignore alarms; always investigate and resolve the hazard promptly. Refer to the manual for specific alarm response procedures.
