MQ6 LPG SENSOR

The MQ6 LPG gas sensor detects the presence of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), propane, and butane in the air. It operates using a metal-oxide semiconductor that alters resistance in response to gas exposure. The sensor outputs both analog and digital signals, making it easy to interface with microcontrollers. It is widely used in gas leakage detection systems, fire alarms, and industrial safety applications. The MQ6 has a high sensitivity to LPG while maintaining stability in real-world environments. It requires a warm-up period for optimal accuracy. The module is durable and energy-efficient, suitable for long-term monitoring. It enhances safety by providing early gas leak detection in homes and workplaces.
