In this tutorial we will see how to build a gas leak detector alarm system with Arduino Nano. 

In this tutorial we will see how to build a gas leak detector alarm system with Arduino Nano. We will see a list of the electronic components to be used, the assembly of the circuit, the source code, and finally we will test the operation of the system. This project is ideal for use in sources close to our home, where there is gas, such as a kitchen, stove or water heater.

Gas sensor (MQ2) is useful for gas leak detection (in home and industry). It can detect LPG, i-butane, methane, alcohol, hydrogen, smoke, etc. Based on its fast response time, measures can be taken as soon as possible. In addition, the sensitivity can be adjusted by a potentiometer (digital pin).

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Operating Voltage: 5V DC

Fast response and high sensitivity

Detection range: 300 to 10000 ppm

Characteristic gas: 1000ppm, Isobutane

Sensing resistance: 1KΩ 50ppm Toluene 20KΩ in

Response time: ≤ 10s

Recovery time: ≤ 30s

Working temperature: -20 ℃ ~ +55 ℃

Humidity: ≤ 95% RH

Ambient oxygen content: 21%

Consumes less than 150mA at 5V.
