TGS2600 Air Contaminants Sensor Module

Description:
 Due to miniaturization of the sensing chip, TGS2600 requires a heater current of only 42mA.
TGS2600 Air Contaminants Sensor Module is a detector of air contaminants such as Hydrogen, Carbon Monoxide, alcohol formaldehyde Ethanol benzene, Methane, sulfur dioxide, Iso-Butane, Cigarette Smoke and few other gases, which is based on the TGS 2600 sensor. The TG2600 sensor is made of a metal oxide semiconductor layer on an aluminum substratum, which by contacting of air contaminants molecule, the conductivity of this layer set raises results in changing the electrical resistance of the sensor. Thus, through the simple circuit can convert this electrical resistance changing to an alarm or driving signal.
A most important of these air contaminants is a very hazardous, non-visible, no smell, toxic, silent killer gas, named carbon monoxide, that this sensor can detect it. This sensor is a highly sensitive sensor that can detect the air contaminants at a few ppm-level. This sensor is an active sensor because of requiring heat to detect the gas, and this required heat is produced by passing an electrical current (42mA) through the sensor.
