Product description: Gravity - MEMS gas sensor - CO, CH4, H2, NO2, NH3 - I2C - MiCS-4514 - DFRobot SEN0377
Gassensor with integrated MiCS-4514 chip made in MEMS technology. What does the gas sensor react to? First of all, it detects various harmful gases and volatile organic compounds such as carbon monoxide (CO), methane (CH4), ethanol (C2H5OH), hydrogen (H2), ammonia (NH3) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). The sensor only detects the concentration of gases in the air - it does not differentiate between them. The module is intended for educational and hobby purposes. It is not guaranteed to work properly in medical, security or similar applications.

Special features
- The sensor detects only the concentration of gases in the air. It doesn't distinguish between them, so you can't tell which gas was detected.
- Low power consumption and I2C communication interface.
- Compatible with any controller powered from 3.3V to 5.5V, e.g. Arduino, ESP32 or Raspberry Pi.
- Used in gas leakage detection projects.
- It can be used as an actuator during environmental air testing.
- The module is intended for educational and hobby purposes. It is not guaranteed to work properly in medical, security or similar applications.
