The MQ-135 Air Quality Gas Sensor Module uses an MQ-135 tin-dioxide sensing element to detect a broad range of harmful gases, including ammonia, NOx, benzene, smoke and CO2. It is widely used in indoor air-quality monitors and gas-leak alarm projects.
Key features:
- Broad Gas Detection: Senses ammonia, sulphide, benzene, smoke and CO2 with good sensitivity across a wide concentration range.
- Dual Signal Output: Provides an analog output (AO) for concentration readings and a digital output (DO) for threshold alerts.
- Adjustable Sensitivity: An onboard potentiometer sets the digital output trigger point.
- Stable, Long Life: The sealed sensing element offers long-term stability and a long service life under continuous operation.
- Fast Response: Reacts quickly to changing gas concentrations, making it suitable for real-time monitoring.
- Standard 4-Pin Header: VCC, GND, DO and AO pins connect straight to Arduino, ESP32 or Raspberry Pi.
