Designed for propane and smoke detection, this high-performance smoke sensor module offers a choice of terminal/pin connectors and provides a standard TTL-level signal output, making it easy and quick to integrate into various electronic projects. The sensor module is compact and lightweight, consumes low power of ≤60mA, and is powered by 5V DC. Built-in protection resistors ensure safe operation.
Precautions
Smoke and gas modules primarily use semiconductor or electrochemical sensing principles, detecting changes in the concentration of combustible gases or smoke particles in the air and outputting an electrical signal. When the concentration of smoke or harmful gases in the air increases, the sensitive material on the sensor surface changes resistance. The module converts this change into a voltage or digital signal for output, which is used for alarms or control mechanisms.
Smoke gas sensor modules are widely used in home fire alarms, factory safety monitoring systems, warehouse fire warning systems, and fire protection systems for school dormitories and office buildings. They can quickly detect and signal the early stages of a fire or a combustible gas leak, assisting the system in taking emergency measures to prevent the incident from escalating and improving overall environmental safety and reliability.
To ensure the long-term and stable operation of a smoke sensor module, the sensor surface should be cleaned regularly to prevent clogging with dust or oil. The module should also be protected from prolonged exposure to high humidity or corrosive gases. The sensor module should be powered by the manufacturer's recommended voltage to avoid current overload. The typical module lifespan is 3 to 5 years, and proper maintenance can significantly extend its service life.
