Ventis MX4


Industrial Scientific Ventis MX4

Introducing the Ventis MX4 – a compact, multi-gas monitor available in both aspirated and diffusion versions. The Ventis meets your gas detection needs with ease. It is the ideal instrument for monitoring one to four gases in confined spaces and nearly any other potentially hazardous environment. This lightweight instrument is available with a bright "safety orange" overmold providing visibility in darker environments. An extended range lithium-ion battery pack provides up to 20 hours of continuous monitoring when using the diffusion version. Compatible with iNet and our DSX™ Docking Station.
  • Gain increased instrument visibility with a tough, "safety orange" overmold
  • Realize true portability with multi-gas protection in single-gas size
  • Use the extended range battery for up to 20 hours (without pump)
  • iNet® and DSX™ Docking Station compatible
