MQ-7 Semiconductor Sensor for Carbon Monoxide
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sensitive material of MQ-7 gas sensor is SnO2, which with lower conductivity in clean air. It make
|
|
|
|
|
detection by method of cycle high and low temperature, and detect CO when low temperature (heated
|
|
|
|
|
by 1.5V). The sensor’s conductivity is more higher along with the gas concentration rising. When high
|
|
|
|
|
temperature (heated by 5.0V), it cleans the other gases adsorbed under low temperature. Please use
|
|
|
|
|
simple electrocircuit, Convert change of conductivity to correspond output signal of gas concentration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MQ-7 gas sensor has high sensitity to Carbon Monoxide. The sensor could be used to detect

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Structure and configuration of MQ-7 gas sensor is shown as Fig. 3, sensor composed by micro AL2O3 ceramic tube, Tin
|
|
|
|
|
Dioxide (SnO2) sensitive layer, measuring electrode and heater are fixed into a crust made by plastic and stainless steel
|
|
|
|
|
net. The heater provides necessary work conditions for work of sensitive components. The enveloped MQ-7 have 6 pin, 4
|
|
|
|
|

Notification
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1 Following conditions must be prohibited
|
|
|
|
|
1.1 Exposed to organic silicon steam
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Organic silicon steam cause sensors invalid, sensors must be avoid exposing to silicon bond,
|
|
|
|
|
fixature, silicon latex, putty or plastic contain silicon environment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.2 High Corrosive gas
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the sensors exposed to high concentration corrosive gas (such as H2Sz, SOX，Cl2，HCl etc), it will
|
|
|
|
|
not only result in corrosion of sensors structure, also it cause sincere sensitivity attenuation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.3 Alkali, Alkali metals salt, halogen pollution
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The sensors performance will be changed badly if sensors be sprayed polluted by alkali metals salt
|
|
|
|
|
especially brine, or be exposed to halogen such as fluorin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.4 Touch water
|
|
|
|
|
Sensitivity of the sensors will be reduced when spattered or dipped in water.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.5 Freezing
|
|
|
|
|
Do avoid icing on sensor’surface, otherwise sensor would lose sensitivity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.6 Applied voltage higher
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Applied voltage on sensor should not be higher than stipulated value, otherwise it cause down-line or
|
|
|
|
|
heater damaged, and bring on sensors’ sensitivity characteristic changed badly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.7 Voltage on wrong pins
|
|
|
|
|
For 6 pins sensor, if apply voltage on 1、3 pins or 4、6 pins, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
will make lead broken, and without signal when apply on 2、4 pins
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2 Following conditions must be avoided
|
|
|
|
|
2.1 Water Condensation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Indoor conditions, slight water condensation will effect sensors performance lightly. However, if water
|
|
|
|
|
condensation on sensors surface and keep a certain period, sensor’ sensitivity will be decreased.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.2 Used in high gas concentration
|
|
|
|
|
No matter the sensor is electrified or not, if long time placed in high gas concentration, if will affect
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sensors characteristic.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.3 Long time storage
|
|
|
|
|
The sensors resistance produce reversible drift if it’s stored for long time without electrify, this drift is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
related with storage conditions. Sensors should be stored in airproof without silicon gel bag with clean air.
|
|
|
|
|
For the sensors with long time storage but no electrify, they need long aging time for stbility before using.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.4 Long time exposed to adverse environment
|
|
|
|
|
No matter the sensors electrified or not, if exposed to adverse environment for long time, such as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
high humidity, high temperature, or high pollution etc, it will effect the sensors performance badly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.5 Vibration
|
|
|
|
|
Continual vibration will result in sensors down-lead response then repture. In transportation or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
assembling line, pneumatic screwdriver/ultrasonic welding machine can lead this vibration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.6 Concussion
|
|
|
|
|
If sensors meet strong concussion, it may lead its lead wire disconnected.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.7 Usage
|
|
|
|
|
For sensor, handmade welding is optimal way. If use wave crest welding should meet the following
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
conditions:
|
|
|
|
|
2.7.1 Soldering flux: Rosin soldering flux contains least chlorine
|
|
|
|
|
2.7.2 Speed: 1-2 Meter/ Minute
|
|
|
|
|
2.7.3 Warm-up temperature：100±20℃
|
|
|
|
|
2.7.4 Welding temperature：250±10℃
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.7.5 1 time pass wave crest welding machine
|
|
|
|
|
If disobey the above using terms, sensors sensitivity will be reduced.
