MX 15

Designed for use in boiler rooms and parking garages, the new MX 15 controller provides the most cost effective solution for the continuous monitoring of toxic or flammable gases and vapors in ambient air.

Easy to install and operate, the MX 15 control unit combined with the OLC(T) 10 detectors provides a low cost solution for light industrial applications.
