Gas Sensor MQ3 Sensitive Alcohol Gas for Breathalyzer
RM18.00
MQ3 is a semiconductor sensor which can detect the presence of alcohol gases, Ethanol, and smoke at concentrations from 0.05 mg/L to 10 mg/L. The sensitive material used for this sensor is SnO2, whose conductivity is lower in clean air.
Description
It’s conductivity increases as the concentration of alcohol gases increases. It has high sensitivity to alcohol and has a good resistance to disturbances due to smoke, vapor and gasoline. MQ3 alcohol sensor can be easily interfaced with Microcontrollers, Arduino Boards, Raspberry Pi etc using an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC). You may also use a comparator to convert analog output to digital and a preset can be used along with it to adjust sensitivity.
