This industrial-grade MEMS sensor offers advanced capabilities to detect hazardous concentrations of hydrogen (H2) ranging from 1 to 1000 parts per million and nitrogen oxides (NOx) from 0.05 to 10 parts per million. It maintains high performance even in environments with temperatures up to 85°C, making it a vital component for ensuring safety in chemical plants and manufacturing settings.
The sensor’s multi-gas detection capability allows it to simultaneously monitor hydrogen (H2), nitric oxide (NO), and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂). These gases are among the most dangerous found in industrial environments, posing both explosive and toxic risks. Its diverse monitoring range makes it an essential tool for maintaining a safe work area in facilities dealing with volatile substances.
Power efficiency is another strong suit of this sensor, operating at just 0.45W. It features an enable/disable pin control, which helps to extend the battery life of continuous monitoring systems. Compatible with 5V DC systems such as Arduino or Raspberry Pi, it is easy to incorporate into a wide range of electronic setups.
The sensor provides precision analog output by generating linear voltage signals from 0 to 5 volts, directly proportional to the concentration of gases detected. This functionality allows for seamless integration with PLCs and microcontrollers, and it includes conversion formulas for straightforward data analysis and application.
Built for industrial durability, this sensor withstands extreme conditions, from temperatures as low as -30°C to highs of 85°C, coupled with 95% humidity, provided it is non-condensing. It outperforms standard environmental sensors, offering reliability in the harshest of conditions where other sensors might fail.
