Hi readers! Welcome to another article where we are discussing the MQ family members. Today, our motto is to learn about the MQ-5 natural liquified petroleum gas (LPG) sensor. The gas sensing material used in this sensor is known as tin dioxide(SnO2). It detects the natural LPG in the surroundings as soon as the core material of this sensor comes in contact with the LPG. This will be explained in simple words in this article.

Hello readers! I hope you are doing great. Today we are discussing the features and details of the MQ-4 methane gas sensor, which belongs to the popular gas sensor MQ family. We have been working on other gas sensors as well, but MQ-4 is particularly suitable for detecting the presence of methane gas. This sensor is more popular because methane gas and compressed natural gas (CNG) are widely used for cooking and other related purposes. MQ-4 methane gas sensor is an important part of the home safety system. Some other advantages of this sensor are, that it responds instantly and has a potentiometer that adds versatility to its functions.
