EASY plug Analog Gas Sensor

Introduction

This analog gas sensor - MQ2 is used in gas leakage detecting equipment in consumer electronics and industrial markets.
This sensor is suitable for detecting LPG, I-butane, propane, methane, alcohol, Hydrogen and smoke. It has high sensitivity and quick response.
In addition, the sensitivity can be adjusted by the potentiometer.
Note: this module should be used together with EASY plug control board.

Connect It Up

Connect the EASY Plug analog gas sensor to control board using an RJ11 cable. Then connect the control board to your PC with a USB cable.

Upload the Code

Copy and paste below code to Arduino IDE and upload.

int gas_din=2;
int gas_ain=A7;
int led=13;
int ad_value;
void setup()
{
  pinMode(led,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(gas_din,INPUT);
  pinMode(gas_ain,INPUT);
  Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop()
{ 
  ad_value=analogRead(gas_ain);
  if(digitalRead(gas_din)==LOW)
  { 
    digitalWrite(led,HIGH);
    Serial.println("Gas leakage");
    Serial.println(ad_value);
  }
  else
  {
    digitalWrite(led,LOW);
Serial.println("Gas not leak");
Serial.println(ad_value);
  }
  delay(500);
}
