MQ-135 Gas Sensor

The gas sensitive material used by the MQ135 gas sensor is tin oxide (SnO2), which has low conductivity in clean air. When the sensor is kept in the polluting gases, the conductivity of the sensor increases with the increase in the concentration of the polluted air. Using a simple circuit can convert the change in conductivity into an output signal corresponding to the gas concentration.
The MQ135 sensor is very sensitive to ammonia, sulfide, benzene series vapor, as well as detection of smoke and other harmful gases. This sensor can be used to test a variety of harmful gases, which is a low cost sensor for a variety of applications.

What is MQ-135 gas sensor and how does it work?

The gas sensor module consists of a steel exoskeleton under which a sensing element is housed. This sensing element is subjected to current through connecting leads. This current is known as heating current through it, the gases coming close to the sensing element get ionized and are absorbed by the sensing element. This changes the resistance of the sensing element which alters the value of the current going out of it.
