This MQ-five Methane LPG Liquid Propane Gas Sensor Module is widely utilized in fuel leakage detecting pieces of equipment in family and enterprise, are appropriate for detecting This MQ-five Methane LPG Liquid Propane Gas Sensor Module is widely utilized in fuel leakage detecting pieces of equipment in family and enterprise, are appropriate for detecting of LPG, herbal fuel, town gas, keep away from the noise of alcohol and cooking fumes and cigarette smoke
The MQ5 ( MQ-5 ) is utilized in gas leakage detecting device in customer and industry programs, this sensor is suitable for detecting LPG, herbal fuel, coal fuel. Avoid the noise of alcohol, cooking fumes, and cigarette smoke. The sensitivity may be adjusted via the potentiometer.
Sensitive fabric of MQ-5 fuel sensor is SnO2, which with decrease conductivity in smooth air. When the goal flammable gas exists, The sensor’s conductivity is better at the side of the gasoline concentration rising. Please use simple electro circuit, Convert change of conductivity to the corresponding output sign of fuel attention.
MQ-5 gasoline sensor has high sensitivity to Methane, Propane, and Butane, and might be used to detect both Methane and Propane. The sensor can be used to hit upon special combustible gas especially Methane, it's miles with low cost and suitable for unique utility
