Zhengzhou Winsen Electronics Technology Co., Ltd www.winsen-sensor.com GM-402B MEMS Combustible Gas Sensor Product description MEMS combustible gas sensor is using MEMS micro-fabrication hot plate on a Si substrate base, gas-sensitive materials used in the clean air with low conductivity metal oxide semiconductor material. When the sensor exposed to gas atmosphere, the conductivity is changing as the detected gas concentration in the air.

⑦Measure 1 ③Heating 2 ⑤Measure 2 Fig2. GM-402B test circuit Instructions: The above fig is the basic test circuit of GM-402B.The sensor requires two voltage inputs: heater voltage (V ) and circuit voltage (V ). V is used to supply specific working temperature to the sensor and it can adopt DC or AC power.

Sensor’s Characteristics: Temperature(℃) gas concentration(ppm) Fig3.Typical Sensitivity Curve Fig4.Typical temperature/humidity characteristics Rs means resistance in target gas with different Rs means resistance of sensor in 5000ppm methane (CH...
Zhengzhou Winsen Electronics Technology Co., Ltd www.winsen-sensor.com Long-term stability: Voltage output(V) Preheating time(days) Fig7.long-term Stability Test is finished in standard test conditions, the abscissa is observing time and the ordinate is voltage output of RL. Instructions: 1. Preheating time Sensor’s resistance may drift reversibly after long-term storage without power. It need to preheat the sensor to reach inside chemical equilibrium.
