MQ-6 Gas Sensor Module

MQ6 Gas sensor is aMetal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) type Gas Sensormostly used to detect theLPG and Butanegas concentration in the air either at home or in industry. This sensor has a detecting element made primarily of ceramic with an aluminum-oxide base and a tin dioxide coating that is encased in a stainless steel mesh. Its sensing range is very suitable forgas leak detectionin homes and places like hotels, restaurants where cooking is done using LPG cylinders. This is a very easy to use low cost semiconductor Gas sensor Module with analog and digital output. This module makes it simple to connect a MQ6 LPG gas sensor to an Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or other microcontroller. Its made in India Origin.
