Atest Gaz

What Atest Gaz does

Atest Gaz A. M. Pachole sp. j. is a privately held Polish manufacturer of gas detection and safety systems, headquartered in Gliwice, Poland, and positioned as the leading domestic producer in its category. The company designs and produces hardware for four application areas: industrial process safety (the Sigma Gas NX platform built on the Linia 4.0 detector family — SmArtGas 4, ProGas 4, and ReAct 4), HVAC and building safety (Teta Gas and Alpa Gas XT systems for underground car parks, boiler rooms, and gas-heated halls), flame detection (FlameSpec IR3 and UV-IR variants including hydrogen-capable models and HD video-equipped versions), and supporting software and configurators (Sigma Toolbox PC software, Detector Toolbox Android app, web-based product configurators).

The product architecture relies on multiple sensor technologies — electrochemical for toxic gases, catalytic for combustible gases, NDIR infrared for methane and CO2, and PID for volatile organic compounds — combined with proprietary Sigma BUS, RS-485/Modbus, 4-20mA, and Bluetooth 4.2 interfaces, and unified under the proprietary GasOK 'Green Light Philosophy' for hazard communication. Core products carry ATEX, IECEx, SIL 2 functional safety, and CE certifications. Atest Gaz has participated in the Polish Technical Committee 64 on explosion protection since 2012, representing Poland in CENELEC and IEC standards work.

The business model combines direct enterprise sales to large industrial customers (named references include Orlen, Grupa Azoty Automatyka, Żywiec, Śnieżka, Introl, and Polski Gaz), an e-commerce storefront (shop.atestgaz.com) for standard products and calibration kits, a network of installation contractors and design offices, recurring calibration services with validity certificates, paid product and service training programs delivered at Gliwice and Spała, and free designer seminars. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; trade shows (Energetab, Warsaw Industry Week, EnergyON Summit, H2POLAND) are a core demand-generation channel. The company is a privately held general partnership with no disclosed external investors.

Product overview

Atest Gaz is a Polish manufacturer of gas detection and safety systems, organized into four main product categories: (1) Industrial — the Sigma Gas NX platform comprising the Linia 4.0 gas detector family (SmArtGas 4 for ATEX/IECEx hazardous areas, ProGas 4 for non-Ex industrial sites, and ReAct 4 for reactive/corrosive gases), Sigma Control L/NX and Sigma MOD LCD control units, LTT2 and LTT4 zone optical-acoustic signallers, and accessories; (2) HVAC — the Teta Gas and Alpa Gas XT systems using Alpa EcoWent XT (CO/NO2), Alpa EcoDet XT (LPG), and Alpa EcoTerm XT (methane) detectors with dedicated control units; (3) Flame Detection — the FlameSpec series (IR3, IR3-HD, IR3-H2, IR3-H2-HD, UV-IR, UV-IR-HD, UV-IR-F, UV-IR-F-HD) with and without HD video output; and (4) Software & Tools — Sigma Toolbox (PC calibration software), Detector Toolbox (Android Bluetooth calibrator app), and web-based product configurators. The Linia 4.0 platform underpins the industrial detector line, offering new electronic platforms with FL/FH/HR measurement heads delivering over 2x faster T90 response times and IP67 protection. Both industrial and HVAC systems implement the proprietary 'GasOK' (Green Light) philosophy for transparent, reliable hazard status communication. The company also offers calibration kits, accessories, and training services.
