Fermion VOC Analog Gas Sensor

The Fermion VOC analog gas sensor is an excellent choice for monitoring volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in your environment. Equipped with advanced MEMS technology, this sensor offers a quick response time and high sensitivity ranging from 1 to 500 ppm. It is ideal for use in air quality meters, air purifiers, and fresh air systems. Thanks to its compact design (13x13x2.5 mm) and low power consumption, it is excellent for mobile use or permanently installed systems for indoor air monitoring. To read the gas sensors with an Arduino, connect the sensor's analog output pin to an analog input pin of the Arduino. Then use the analogRead() function in your Arduino sketch to measure and process the sensor values.

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