The MQ5 LPG Natural Gas Sensor Module is an affordable and versatile sensor designed to detect LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas), natural gas (NG), and methane (CH4). It is widely used in various safety applications, particularly for detecting gas leaks in both residential and industrial environments.
Key Features:
- Gas Detection: The MQ5 sensor is sensitive to a range of gases, including LPG, natural gas, and methane, making it ideal for leak detection in kitchens, factories, and gas pipelines.
- Analog Output: The module provides an analog output voltage that corresponds to the gas concentration detected. This allows users to measure varying levels of gas in the environment.
- Digital Output: In addition to the analog output, some versions of the MQ5 sensor also provide a digital output, which can be used to trigger alarms or safety measures once the gas concentration exceeds a preset threshold.
- Sensitivity: The MQ5 sensor is sensitive to low concentrations of gas, ensuring early detection of leaks or dangerous situations.
- Low Power Consumption: The sensor operates with minimal power, making it suitable for battery-powered systems or devices with limited energy resources.
- Heating Element: It contains a heating element that must be preheated to stabilize the sensor and give accurate readings.
How It Works:
- The MQ5 sensor has a heating element and sensitive layer that react with gases such as LPG or methane.
- When gas is present, the sensor’s internal resistance changes, causing a change in the output voltage, which can be read by a microcontroller like Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
- By monitoring this output, systems can detect the presence of gas and respond by triggering alarms or shutting off gas supplies.
The MQ5 sensor module is a popular choice for DIY projects, especially those involving safety automation, and it’s compatible with platforms like Arduino for easy integration into custom gas detection systems.
Technical Specifications:
- Operating Voltage: 5V DC
- Heater Resistance: Typically 33Ω
- Sensor Resistance: Varies with the concentration of gas, typically between 10kΩ and 30kΩ
- Response Time: Fast response time, typically a few seconds to detect changes in gas concentration.
- Preheating Time: Requires about 1-2 minutes to stabilize for accurate readings.
Applications:
- Gas Leak Detection: Used in homes, factories, kitchens, and industrial plants to detect gas leaks in cooking appliances, heating systems, or pipelines.
- Environmental Safety: Provides early detection of dangerous gas leaks, improving safety in environments with the potential for explosive or toxic gas buildup.
- Home Automation: Can be integrated into smart home systems to monitor gas levels and automatically activate safety mechanisms like alarms or shutting off gas supplies.
- Industrial Monitoring: Ideal for detecting leaks in industrial applications where LPG, methane, or natural gas is used.
- Safety Alarms: In combination with an alarm or control system, the MQ5 sensor provides a proactive approach to preventing gas-related accidents.
