Tired of pellistor sensors that are susceptible to poisoning? Blackline partnered with Nevada Nano and was the first to bring their ground-breaking Molecular Property Spectrometer (MPS™) ground-breaking flammable gas to market. Just like a non-dispersive (NDIR) infrared sensor, MPS cannot be poisoned. But unlike NDIR, MPS can detect hydrogen, delivering best-of-both-worlds performance.
MPS uses new technology to detect the presence of combustible gases to deliver the TrueLEL™ measurement of more than a dozen gases and their gas mixtures. Going one step further, MPS also features a new gas classification system. Combined with Blackline's location technology, you'll have access to more gas detection data than ever before.

Multi-gas Diffusion Cartridge
Multi-gas Pump CartridgeReconfiguring and redeploying a G7 detector with new sensors is easy, eliminating down-time and future-proofing your investment. Cartridges are easily and quickly changed out in the field. No matter if you want to equip a G7 wearable with a different gas sensor cartridge, a user encounters a sensor issue or a cartridge gets damaged — our plug-and-play cartridges can be replaced in seconds. Maximize device uptime and minimize maintenance to save your business money.
With our optional Blend service plan, gas sensor are included as part of your service plan. Compared to an upfront purchase of our G7 personal and area gas monitors with gas sensor cartridges, our Blend service plan provides peace of mind that your investment is covered. Should a sensor fail, we'll send you a new cartridge at no charge — gas sensor cartridges are field replaceable in seconds.
With G7’s modular design, sensor maintenance is uniquely simple. Bump tests and calibrations are performed using cal-caps or Blackline’s G7 Dock. All test data is communicated back to Blackline Live from the device — wirelessly and in real-time — for compliance tracking and reporting. With G7, never waste time manually collecting and downloading calibration logs again.
And when you’re ready, G7x and data science work together to help you proactively identify gas leaks, unlock worksite efficiencies and so much more. Our Blackline Vision team is here to help you leverage this data to improve both safety and productivity.
Finally, servicing gas sensors and wasting time on replacing sensors is a thing of the past. When a G7 gas sensor reaches the end of its serviceable life, simply switch the cartridge out for a new one, without taking the device out of service.
