MQ6 Fuel Sensor
Sensitive material of MQ-6 gas sensor is SnO2, which with lower conductivity in clean air. When the target combustible gas exist, The sensorís conductivity is more higher along with the gas concentration rising. Please use simple electrocircuit, Convert change of conductivity to correspond output signal of gas concentration.
MQ-6 gas sensor has high sensitity to Propane, Butane and LPG, also response to Natural gas. The sensor could be used to detect different combustible gas, especially Methane, it is with low cost and suitable for different application.

Description
Delicate materials of MQ-6 gasoline sensor is SnO2, which with decrease conductivity in clear air. When the goal flamable gasoline exist, Thesensorís conductivity is extra larger together with the gasoline focus rising. Please use easy electrocircuit, Convert change of conductivity to correspond output sign of gasoline focus.
MQ-6 gasoline sensor has excessive sensitity to Propane, Butane and LPG, additionally response to Pure gasoline. The sensor may very well be used to detect completely different flamable gasoline, particularly Methane, it’s with low value and appropriate for various software.

MQ-6 gasoline sensor has excessive sensitity to Propane, Butane and LPG, additionally response to gasoline . The sensor may be wont to detect completely different flamable gasoline, particularly Methane, it is with low value and appropriate for numerous software.
Utilizing a MQ sensor it detect a gasoline is extraordinarily simple. You may both use the digital pin or the analog pin to perform this. Merely energy the module with 5V and also you ought to note the power LED on the module to glow and when no gasoline it detected the output LED will stay turned off that means the digital output pin are going to be 0V. Do not forget that these sensors must be stored on for pre-heating time (talked about in options above) earlier than you may really work with it. Now, introduce the sensor to the gasoline you wish to detect and also you should see the output LED to journey excessive alongside aspect the digital pin, if not use the potentiometer till the output will get excessive. Now every time your sensor will get launched to the current gasoline at this explicit focus the digital pin will go excessive (5V) else will stay low (0V).
It’s also possible to use the analog pin to comprehend an equal factor. Learn the analog values (0-5V) using a microcontroller, this worth are going to be straight proportional to the focus of the gasoline to which the sensor detects. You may experiment with this values and examine how the sensor reacts to completely different focus of gasoline and develop your program accordingly.
In case you’re looking for some accuracy collectively along with your readings then measuring the PPM can be the only because of accompany it. It could possibly additionally enable you to tell apart one gasoline from one other. So to dwell PPM you may straight use a module.
