Description
Various substances in their gaseous state can be detected by smell, but there are difficulties when it comes to distinguishing odourless gases. Therefore, sensors like the MQ6 are used to measure LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) and butane concentrations in the air. At its optimal operating temperature, it quickly detects concentration changes in the air between 200 and 10,000 ppm.
The DO pin indicates digital output, while the AO pin indicates analogue output. Digital output is achieved by setting threshold values via the potentiometer. Analogue output depends on the gas concentration around the sensor.
