Fermion EtOH Ethanol Analog Gas Sensor

Discover the state-of-the-art Fermion EtOH Ethanol analogue gas sensor, equipped with the latest MEMS technology to enable precise monitoring of ethanol concentrations in the air. This compact sensor not only provides low power consumption and minimal heat generation, but also short warm-up times and fast response times. Ideal for applications such as breath alcohol testing, indoor air quality measurement and food quality control, it provides a qualitative measurement of ethanol. Please note that the sensor is not suitable for quantitative measurements and a calibrated sensor should be used instead. To read the gas sensors with an Arduino, connect the sensor's analogue output pin to an analogue input pin of the Arduino. Then use the function analogRead() in your Arduino sketch to measure and process the sensor values.

Info: This sensor can only indicate the presence of a substance and only provides an approximate guide value. For precise measurements, we recommend purchasing the Gravity series with factory-calibrated electrochemical gas sensors.
