Fermion: MEMS Smoke Detection Sensor - 10-1000ppm Range (Ethanol Compatible, Breakout)

This ultra-compact MEMS sensor offers reliable qualitative smoke detection, perfect for IoT safety systems and industrial monitoring. With a detection range of 10-1000ppm, it ensures rapid response to smoke presence, significantly enhancing safety measures in your projects and devices.

Its space-saving 13mm design, measuring just 13×13×2.5mm, allows it to comfortably fit into tight spaces where traditional detectors would struggle. This makes it ideally suited for embedded systems and compact IoT devices that require efficient use of space.

Operating on ultra-low power, it consumes less than 20mA of current between 3.3 to 5 volts. This is 60% less power than conventional smoke detectors, making it an excellent choice for battery-powered monitoring solutions, extending the lifespan of your devices and reducing maintenance needs.

The sensor's fast response recovery, a result of advanced MEMS technology, provides detection within seconds. It boasts a three times faster response than conventional smoke sensors, offering critical early warnings necessary for timely decision-making and intervention in emergency situations.

Its multi-gas compatibility allows it to pair with 10 other MEMS sensors, including CO, VOC, and H2 sensors. This capability creates comprehensive air quality monitoring systems with shared power and interface, providing a full spectrum of environmental data for complex applications.

The MEMS series includes 11 different types of gas sensors, which can be customized based on specific requirements, offering flexibility and precision in monitoring various gases. However, it should be noted that this sensor is intended for qualitative measurement only.

For optimal performance, it's crucial to adhere to the precautions for use. Avoid exposure to volatile silicon compounds and high concentrations of corrosive gases. Additionally, it is essential to prevent contamination from alkalis and refrain from using the module in environments prone to extreme conditions such as high humidity or pollution.
