Detect LPG, propane, and natural gas leaks instantly with the MQ5 Gas Sensor—a critical tool for home kitchens, RVs, and industrial setups. Designed with a plug-and-play Gravity interface, this Arduino-compatible sensor delivers real-time monitoring without complex wiring.
Precision Detection for Flammable Gases
Engineered with an MQ5 semiconductor probe, the sensor prioritizes high sensitivity to LPG and natural gas (200–10,000 ppm range), while minimizing false alarms from alcohol or smoke. The analog voltage output (0-5V) provides continuous data for Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or ESP32 systems, enabling seamless integration into smart safety networks.
Customizable Sensitivity & Easy Installation
Fine-tune detection thresholds effortlessly using the built-in potentiometer. The 3-pin Gravity connector eliminates soldering—simply plug into your microcontroller and start monitoring. Ideal for DIY enthusiasts and professionals alike, it works flawlessly with Arduino shields for rapid prototyping.
Fast Response & Industrial Durability
With a <10-second reaction time to gas presence, this sensor ensures timely alerts. The SnO₂-based probe guarantees 5+ years of stable performance across temperatures from -10°C to 50°C, making it reliable for harsh environments like garages or workshops.
