MQ-5 Methane LPG Liquid Propane Gas Sensor Module

This MQ-5 Methane LPG Liquid Propane Gas Sensor Module is widely used in gas leakage detecting pieces of equipment in family and industry, are suitable for detecting of LPG, natural gas, town gas, avoid the noise of alcohol and cooking fumes and cigarette smoke

Sensitive material of MQ-5 gas sensor is SnO2, which with lower conductivity in clean air. When the target combustible gas exists, The sensor’s conductivity is higher along with the gas concentration rising. Please use simple electro circuit, Convert change of conductivity to the corresponding output signal of gas concentration.

The MQ-5 (MQ5) is used in gas leakage detecting equipment in consumer and industry applications, this sensor is suitable for detecting LPG, natural gas, coal gas. Avoid the noise of alcohol, cooking fumes, and cigarette smoke. The sensitivity can be adjusted by the potentiometer.

MQ5 gas sensor has high sensitivity to Methane, Propane, and Butane, and could be used to detect both Methane and Propane. The sensor could be used to detect different combustible gas especially Methane, it is with low cost and suitable for different application.

Features:

1. Small sensitivity to alcohol, smoke.
2. Simple drive circuit.
3. High sensitivity to LPG, natural gas, town gas.
4. Liquefied petroleum gas, natural gas, city gas, better sensitivity
5. Has a long life and reliable stability
6. Liquefied petroleum gas, natural gas, city gas, better sensitivity
7. Has a long life and reliable stability
8. Indication of the signal output
9. Dual signal output (analog output, and TTL level output)
10. TTL output signal is low. (When low output signal light, and can be connected directly to the microcontroller)
11. 0 ~ 5V analog output voltage, the higher the concentration, the higher the voltage
12. Fast response and recovery characteristics
