Good sensitivity to CO/Combustible gas
High sensitivity to Methane, Propane and CO
Long life and low cost
Simple drive circuit
Sensor type: semiconductor

Sensitive material of MQ-9 gas sensor is SnO2, which will lower the conductivity in clean air. It make
detection by method of cycle high and low temperature, and detect CO when low temperature (heated
by 1.5V). The sensors conductivity is higher along with the gas concentration. When high temperature (heated by 5.0V), it detects Methane, Propane, combustible gas and cleans the other gases absorbed under low temperature. MQ-9 gas sensor has high sensitivity to Carbon Monoxide, Methane and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). The sensor could be used to detect different gases contains CO and combustible gases, it is with low cost and suitable for different applications.
