MSA Introduction 2 Introduction Congratulations on purchasing the GALAXY GX2 Automated Test System, the next generation Test Stand and instrument management system from MSA. This system is used exclusively with the ALTAIR® family of gas detectors. This manual uses the terms instrument and gas detector to represent that entire line of ALTAIR gas detection instruments. In this manual the user will learn to install and configure the GALAXY GX2 Test Stand and optional attachments, and test gas detectors.
MSA AUER Introduction The Test Stand is a standalone unit that can accommodate one gas detector of the ALTAIR family. However, each Test Stand contains the plumbing and electronic ports to simultaneously connect a total of 10 Test Stands and four Cylinder Holders (electronic or non-electronic). For applications where multiple Cylinder Holders are connected, the Test Stand Expanded Solenoid option must be ordered.
MSA Introduction ware, and configuration options anticipate the user's needs and provide superb efficiency in this next generation Automated Test System. GALAXY GX2 System Features and Options The GALAXY GX2 automatically identifies the type of gas detector inserted into the Test Stand. Based on user-defined settings, the Test Stand then performs bump tests and/or calibrates the instrument. The data collected from each test event is stored to a memory card [ chapter 2.
