  • MQ-4-2.png

Summary:

Sensitive material of MQ-8 gas sensor is SnO2, which with lower conductivity in clean air. When hydrogen gas exists, the sensor’s conductivity gets higher along with the gas concentration rising. Users can convert the change of conductivity to correspond output signal of gas concentration through a simple circuit. MQ-8 gas sensor has high sensitivity to hydrogen gas, also has anti-interference to other gases. This sensor can detect hydrogen, especially city gas. It is a kind of low-cost sensor for kinds of applications.

Feature:

*It has good sensitivity to propane, smoke &etc in wide range, and has advantages such as long lifespan, low cost and simple drive circuit &etc.

APPLICATION

Other Detector

Formaldehyde detector is an instrument for detecting formaldehyde. Generally, semiconductor sensors and electrochemical sensors are used to realize the rapid semi-quantification of formaldehyde in indoor air on the spot, which is characterized by simple structure, small size, intuitive,easy to carry and use.

Home Combustible Gas Alarm

The combustible gas alarm is an alarm device for detecting gas leakage. The component that reacts to the combustible gas is a gas sensor, and the response signal is converted into an electrical signal through the circuit board. When the combustible gas in the air reaches a certain concentration value, the alarm will alarm. The high-end household combustible gas alarm can automatically start the exhaust equipment and close the gas pipeline valve at the same time. A wireless transmission device can be installed inside the gas alarm to realize overall monitoring and network alarm to ensure the safety of everyone's life and property.

Industrial Combustible Gas Alarm

In the process of industrial use of combustible gas, if the combustible gas is in an incomplete combustion state or has gas leakage, etc., the combustible gas will cause personnel poisoning or fire accidents, directly threatening the life safety of personnel. Therefore, it is necessary to install an industrial-grade gas alarm. If the gas exceeds the standard in the on-site environment, the alarm can give an early warning, thereby reducing the probability of danger.
