MQ-4 Methane Gas Sensor Module
The MQ-4 Methane and CNG Gas Leakage Detector Sensor Module is an industrial-grade electrochemical sensing solution engineered for high-precision environmental safety tracking. Driven by a rugged Tin Dioxide (SnO2) semiconductor surface layer, this module boasts exceptional sensitivity to Methane (CH4) and Natural Gas within a detection range of 200 to 10,000 ppm, while demonstrating low cross-sensitivity to cooking smoke or alcohol vapors. The onboard breakout carrier electronics feature a versatile dual-signal layout: a 0-5V Analog Output (AO) for continuous real-time parts-per-million mapping and a TTL Digital Output (DO) managed by an onboard voltage comparator with an adjustable threshold potentiometer for immediate binary safety alarm triggers. Operating on a standard 5V power supply, it is the definitive hardware pick for smart home kitchen safety grids, CNG vehicle safety modules, biogas plant monitoring systems, and industrial factory ventilation alarms using Arduino, ESP32, or Raspberry Pi
