Partnership Elevates Multi-Gas Accuracy, Runtime, and Safety in the Most Demanding Industrial Environments
RENO, NV — January 7, 2026 — NevadaNano, the global leader in advanced gas-sensing technologies, today announced that Industrial Scientific has integrated the MPS™ 6.0 Ultra-Low-Power Flammable Gas Sensor into its flagship Radius® BZ1 area monitoring platform. This collaboration brings together Industrial Scientific’s trusted leadership in area monitoring with NevadaNano’s breakthrough, next-generation sensor technology—setting a new benchmark for safety, reliability, and multi-gas detection performance.
Advancing Area Monitoring Safety With the Radius® BZ1
Industrial Scientific’s Radius® BZ1 is widely recognized as the industry standard for rugged, long-duration area monitoring in high-risk environments such as upstream and midstream oil & gas, chemical processing, refining, and utilities. By adding NevadaNano’s MPS™ 6.0, the Radius® BZ1 now delivers even greater confidence, accuracy, and runtime for teams working in dynamic, open-air conditions.
MPS™ 6.0 Ultra-Low-Power Sensor Sets a New Standard for Flammable Gas Detection
NevadaNano’s MPS™ (Molecular Property Spectrometer™) 6.0 Ultra-Low-Power sensor is the most advanced flammable gas sensor available today. Designed for portable and battery-powered safety devices, it provides unmatched reliability and performance across more than a dozen flammable gases—including hydrogen.
Key Features of the MPS™ 6.0 Ultra-Low-Power Gas Sensor
- 1.35 mW ultra-Low power consumption for dramatically extended device runtime
- Certified intrinsically safe for use in hazardous environments
- Compliant with the rigorous IEC 60079-29-1 Ed 2.1 Annex A standard
- Immunity to poisoning and saturation
- TrueLEL™ multi-gas detection without the need for gas-specific calibration factors
- Built-in self-test for fail-safe operation
- 15+ year sensor life, enabling exceptionally long deployment cycles with consistent performance
- No required field calibration for the life of the sensor
By combining these features with Industrial Scientific’s SafeCore® Module and Radius® BZ1 platform, users gain a highly reliable, low-maintenance solution that detects flammable gases accurately and rapidly, while significantly reducing the total cost of ownership.
“Industrial Scientific is a recognized global leader in gas detection, and we are delighted that they’ve chosen our MPS™ 6.0 Ultra-Low-Power sensor to further strengthen the Radius® BZ1 platform. This collaboration underscores the trust leading companies place in NevadaNano’s technology and our shared vision to bring safer and more advanced sensing solutions to the market.” said Gary Collins, VP of Sales & Marketing at NevadaNano.
“The introduction of the MPS™ LEL sensor reinforces our commitment to building the most reliable and versatile area monitoring portfolio in the industry,” said Andreas Schmid, President of Industrial Scientific. “By incorporating MPS™ technology into the Radius® BZ1, we’re giving users longer runtime, multi-gas detection, and the confidence to focus on their work, knowing their teams are protected no matter their environment.”
