🚀 Why It’s Ideal for Your Projects

• High sensitivity to LPG and propane — Tailored for combustible gas detection (especially LPG mixtures), making it perfect for safety, monitoring, or automation systems.

• Dual output design — With an analog output (proportional to gas concentration) and a digital (threshold-triggered) output, you can build precise measurement or simple alarm circuits.

• Microcontroller compatible — Operates on a standard 5 V supply and works easily with Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi (with ADC), or any other development board.

📝 Key Features

• Detects concentrations in the range of approximately 200 to 10,000 ppm for LPG/propane-type gases.

• Outputs: Analog voltage (which rises with more gas) and Digital TTL level output (trigger when above threshold).

• Operating voltage: ~5 V DC; built-in heater to maintain sensor temperature.

• Quick response and recovery characteristics; durable and suitable for continuous sensing.

• Simple to connect: load resistance circuit for analog measurement; digital output can trigger microcontroller or buzzer/LED.

🎯 Typical Applications

• Home or industrial gas-leak alarms — Detect LPG/propane leaks near cooktops, storage tanks, or piping.

• Smart automation & IoT safety — Trigger ventilation, shutoff valves, or alerts when gas concentration rises above safe levels.

• Environmental monitoring systems — Add combustible-gas sensing to your air-quality or safety dashboard.

• Educational and hobby projects — Ideal for learning sensor integration, analog reading, and alarm logic using popular microcontrollers.
