GfG Microtector II G460 — detector for up to 7 gases (PID, IR, ATEX)
The GfG Microtector II G460 is one of the world's smallest detectors for up to 7 gases at once — with five sensor positions covering combustible gases (LEL), oxygen, toxic gases, CO₂ (IR) and volatile organic compounds (PID sensor). Unlike the four-gas G450, the G460 adds a PID sensor for VOCs and a multi-channel IR sensor (CO₂ and hydrocarbons), greatly expanding the detectable range. It stands out with its best-in-class 103 dB(A) alarm and a clear "traffic-light" system (the entire display changes color depending on status). IP67 housing, optional G400-MP2 pump, DS400 docking station.
The GfG Microtector II G460 is one of the world's smallest detectors for up to 7 gases simultaneously — with five sensor positions supporting flammable gases (LEL), oxygen, toxic gases, CO₂ (IR) and volatile organic compounds (PID sensor). Unlike the four-gas G450, the G460 adds a PID sensor for VOCs and a multi-channel IR sensor (CO₂ and hydrocarbons), significantly broadening the detectable range. It stands out with the loudest-in-class 103 dB(A) alarm and a clear „traffic light” system (the entire display changes color depending on the state). IP67 enclosure, optional G400-MP2 pump, DS400 docking station.
Note: The measured gases depend on the configuration of the 5 sensor positions — we select them to match the hazard. The exact ranges of individual sensors are confirmed from the current manufacturer datasheet during selection.
Key features
- Up to 7 gases simultaneously — 5 sensor positions.
- Sensors: EC (toxic, O₂), catalytic (LEL), PID 10.6 eV (VOC), IR/NDIR (CO₂ and hydrocarbons).
- Loudest-in-class 103 dB(A) alarm; visual „traffic light” system (green/orange/red).
- Optional G400-MP2 electric pump (up to 0.5 l/min) — does not shorten the detector's runtime.
- Power: replaceable NiMH pack (up to 30 h) or alkaline batteries.
- IP67 protection rating; shock-resistant enclosure; −20…+55°C.
- DS400 station — automatic calibration and bump test; standard data and event logging.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
How does the G460 differ from the G450?
The G450 is a classic 1–4-gas detector (flammable, O₂, CO, H₂S). The G460 supports up to 7 gases, adding a PID sensor (volatile organic compounds) and a multi-channel IR (CO₂ and hydrocarbons) — a much broader range.
Does the G460 have a pump?
By default it is diffusion-based; an optional G400-MP2 electric pump (up to 0.5 l/min) is available for sampling from confined spaces — it does not shorten the detector's runtime.
How loud is the alarm?
103 dB(A) — one of the loudest in its class; it is complemented by a visual „traffic light” in which the entire display changes color depending on the hazard state.
