MQ6 LPG, Butane, Propane Gas Sensor Module
The MQ6 gas sensor is a device that has a fast response to Liquid petroleum gas, generally used in equipment to detect gas leaks in industrial and other works. This is a simple sensor suitable for detecting LPG in the air that mostly contains butane and propane.
The sensor allows us to detect if there are gas concentrations anywhere and we can hence use it in various industrial and commercial projects.
The Digital Pin of this sensor allows it to operate even without a microcontroller and that is manageable when you are trying to catch one specific gas. The sensor can also detect different combustible gas.
Features
- High sensitivity to LPG, iso-butane, propane
- Small sensitivity to alcohol, smoke.
- Fast response
- Stable and long life
- Simple drive circuit
- Preheat duration 20 seconds
- Can be used as a Digital or analog sensor
- You can vary the Sensitivity of Digital pin using the potentiometer

Pinout of MQ6 Sensor
Pin Name | Description |
Vcc | Power Pin requires an operating voltage of 5V. |
GND | Ground pin. |
DO | Digital out the pin, to get the digital output from the sensor, need to set the threshold value using Pot. |
AO | Analog out the pin. It based the output of this pin on the intensity of the LPG or other gas. |
