MQ131 Ozone Gas Sensor Module��is a compact and highly sensitive sensor designed for detecting ozone levels in the ambient air. It utilizes��tin dioxide (SnO2)��as the sensing material, which has low conductivity in clean air but becomes more conductive in the presence of ozone. The module can detect ozone concentrations ranging from��10-1000 ppb��for low concentrations and��10ppm-1000ppm��for high concentrations. It features both��analog output��and��TTL level digital output, making it compatible with microcontroller-based systems for direct integration.
Key Features:
-
Wide Detection Range: Capable of detecting ozone concentrations from��10PPB to 1000PPB��10ppm to 1000ppm��(high concentration).
-
