MQ-2 Smoke Sensor Product Description
-
The gas sensing material used in the MQ-2 smoke sensor is tin dioxide (SnO2) with low conductivity in clean air. When combustible gases are present in the environment, the sensor's conductivity increases with the concentration of combustible gases in the air. A simple circuit can convert the change in conductivity into an output signal corresponding to the gas concentration.
-
The MQ-2 gas sensor has high sensitivity to liquefied petroleum gas, propane, and hydrogen, and is also ideal for detecting natural gas and other combustible vapors. This sensor can detect a variety of combustible gases and is a low-cost sensor suitable for multiple applications.
