MQ-135 Gas Sensor

Image
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is measured with MQ-135 gas sensor. MQ series of gas sensors utilize a small heater inside with an electrochemical sensor. These sensors are sensitive to a range of gasses witch are used at room temperature. MQ-135 is a basic digital/analog, low-cost gas sensor. The module have two output : analog and digital signals, microcontroller/ Arduino can read the sensor output signal and proceed with the data further. The main features are: Good sensitivity of harmful gases with wide range of concentration Long service life, low cost, simple driving circuit. High sensibility over ammonia gas, sulfide, benzene series vapor, also ideal for smoke and other harmful substance detection. Household air pollution alarm ndustrial air pollution controlle Portable air pollution detector Characteristics Signal output: digital/analog Standard circuit: Loop voltage Vc ≤24V  DC Heater voltage: VH 5.0V±0.2V AC or DC Load resistance: Adjustable RL Features of sensitive c...
