Industrial Scientific Ventis Pro5 Multi-Gas Monitor
The Industrial Scientific Ventis Pro5 is an advanced portable multi-gas monitor capable of detecting up to five gases simultaneously. Designed for personal protection, confined-space entry and demanding industrial gas detection applications, the Ventis Pro5 combines a broad selection of sensor technologies with optional pumped sampling and integrated worker-safety features.
Configurations range from conventional LEL, O₂, CO and H₂S monitoring through to specialist applications requiring gases such as NH₃, HCN, SO₂, NO₂, Cl₂ or PH₃. Infrared and PID sensor options further extend the platform to applications involving methane, hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Flexible Multi-Gas Monitoring
The Ventis Pro5 offers substantially more sensor flexibility than a conventional four-gas monitor. Standard configurations can provide simultaneous monitoring of combustible gas, oxygen, carbon monoxide and hydrogen sulfide, while alternative sensors allow the instrument to be configured for more specialised hazards.
Available sensor technologies include electrochemical sensors for toxic gases and oxygen, catalytic bead sensors for combustible gases, infrared sensors for hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide, and PID technology for volatile organic compounds.
This makes the Ventis Pro5 suitable both as a conventional personal gas monitor and for applications where additional or less commonly monitored gases need to be incorporated into the same portable instrument.
Available Gas Sensors
The Ventis Pro5 supports a broad selection of sensors. The exact gases that can be monitored simultaneously depend on the selected sensor combination and instrument configuration.
| Gas / Measurement | Formula / Type | Sensor Technology |
|---|---|---|
| Combustible Gases | LEL | Catalytic bead |
| Methane | CH₄ / LEL | Catalytic bead or infrared depending on configuration |
| Oxygen | O₂ | Electrochemical |
| Carbon Monoxide | CO | Electrochemical |
| Carbon Monoxide – Low Hydrogen Interference | CO/H₂ Low | Electrochemical |
| Carbon Monoxide / Hydrogen Sulfide | CO/H₂S | Dual-gas electrochemical |
| Hydrogen Sulfide | H₂S | Electrochemical |
| Hydrogen Cyanide | HCN | Electrochemical |
| Ammonia | NH₃ | Electrochemical |
| Nitrogen Dioxide | NO₂ | Electrochemical |
| Sulfur Dioxide | SO₂ | Electrochemical |
| Phosphine | PH₃ | Electrochemical |
| Chlorine | Cl₂ | Electrochemical |
| Carbon Dioxide | CO₂ | Infrared |
| Methane / Hydrocarbons | CH₄ / HC | Infrared |
| Volatile Organic Compounds | VOC / PID | Photoionisation detector (PID) |
Sensor compatibility and the number of gases that can be measured simultaneously depend on the selected configuration. Contact Imbros for assistance configuring the appropriate sensor combination.
Personal Monitoring and Confined-Space Entry
The Ventis Pro5 can be used as a compact diffusion monitor for continuous personal protection or configured with an integral pump for remote atmosphere sampling.
Pumped configurations are particularly useful for confined-space work, allowing atmospheric samples to be drawn from tanks, pits, vessels and other locations before entry. This allows the same instrument platform to be used for both personal monitoring and pre-entry gas testing.
Worker Safety Features
In addition to gas detection, the Ventis Pro5 incorporates several features designed to assist workers during an emergency.
- – Dedicated panic button
- – Man-down alarm functionality
- – Customisable alarm action messages
- – Acknowledgeable gas alerts
- – Four high-visibility alarm LEDs
- – 95 dB audible alarm
- – Vibration alarm
- – LENS™ Wireless alarm sharing
LENS™ Wireless allows compatible Industrial Scientific monitors to form a local wireless group and share gas alarms and instrument information between workers. Up to 25 devices can participate in a LENS Wireless group, with a manufacturer-specified line-of-sight range of up to 100 metres.
Additional connected monitoring options are available from Industrial Scientific for organisations requiring remote fleet or worker monitoring.
Applications
The broad sensor selection and pumped sampling options make the Ventis Pro5 suitable for applications including:
- – Confined-space entry
- – Industrial maintenance and shutdowns
- – Mining and mineral processing
- – Wastewater and water treatment
- – Chemical processing and handling
- – Utilities and infrastructure
- – Oil, gas and petrochemical operations
- – Emergency and hazardous-material response
- – VOC monitoring with PID configurations
- – Tank and vessel inspection
- – Personal toxic-gas monitoring
- – Specialist multi-gas applications
Product Details
Guaranteed for Life™ Warranty
The Ventis Pro5 instrument is covered by Industrial Scientific’s Guaranteed for Life™ warranty for as long as the instrument remains supported by Industrial Scientific Corporation.
The pump and O₂, LEL, CO and H₂S sensors are warranted for four years. Other sensors and batteries have separate warranty periods, with the PID sensor currently warranted for one year. Current Industrial Scientific warranty conditions apply.
Configure Your Ventis Pro5
With its extensive sensor selection, the Ventis Pro5 should be configured according to the specific hazards and sampling requirements of the application. Important considerations include the gases being monitored, required measuring ranges, diffusion or pumped sampling, operating environment and any specialist requirements such as VOC or infrared hydrocarbon detection.
Contact us with your application and the gases you need to monitor. We can assist with selecting an appropriate Ventis Pro5 sensor configuration together with the required pump, sampling equipment, calibration gas, regulators, chargers and accessories.
