Carbon Monoxide Sensor - MQ-7

Introduction

This is a simple-to-use Carbon Monoxide (CO) sensor, suitable for sensing CO concentrations in the air. The MQ-7 can detect CO-gas concentrations anywhere from 20 to 2000ppm.

Features

• High sensitivity to CH4，Natural gas
• Small sensitivity to alcohol, smoke
• Fast response
• Stable and long life
• Simple drive circuit

Specification

[1.pdf MQ-7 datasheet]

Usage

VCC - 5V
GND - GND
S   - Analog pin0

Example code

int sensorValue;
void setup()
{
 Serial.begin(9600);      // sets the serial port to 9600
}
void loop()
{
 sensorValue = analogRead(0);       // read analog input pin 0
 Serial.println(sensorValue, DEC);  // prints the value read
 delay(100);                        // wait 100ms for next reading
}
