Ks0203 keyestudio Steam Sensor

Introduction

Steam sensor is an analog sensor and can be made as a simple rainwater detector and liquid level switch. When humidity on the face of this sensor rises, output voltage will increase.

Caution: connection parts is non-waterproof, so please don’t put them into water.

Performance Parameters

1.Working Voltage: 3.3V or 5V
2.Working Current: <20mA
3.Range of Working Temperature: －10℃～＋70℃
4.Interface Type: Analog Signal Output
5.Size: 36mm x 20mm

Pin Definition：
S：Signal Output
+：Power Supply(VCC)
-：Ground(GND

Connection Diagram

Codes

void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); //open serial port, and set baud rate at 9600bps
}
void loop()
{
int val;
val=analogRead(0); //plug vapor sensor into analog port 0
Serial.print("Moisture is ");
Serial.println(val,DEC); //read analog value through serial port printed
delay(100);
}

Result

When you detect different degree of humidity, the sensor shows the current value. Shown as following picture, when the sensor detects steam rose from the hot water,the value is displayed on serial monitor.
