Winsen MQ-5 LPG Detection Sensor is an original and brand new LPG, CH4, C3H8 Detection Sensor. With a long lifespan and low price, for detecting Methane, Butane, and Propane gas leakage.

The sensitive material of the MQ-5 gas sensor is SnO2, which with lower conductivity in clean air. When the target flammable gas exists, the sensor’s conductivity gets higher along with the gas concentration rising. Users can convert the change of conductivity to correspond output signal of gas concentration through a simple circuit. MQ-5 gas sensor has a high sensitivity to butane, propane, methane and can detect methane and propane at the same time. It also can detect kinds of flammable gases, especially LPG(propane). It is a kind of low–cost sensor for many applications.


Features:

  1. Responsive to Methane, Butane, and Propane gases
  2. Compatible with 5V
  3. Cost-efficient

Package Includes:

1 x Winsen MQ-5 LPG Detection Sensor

Setup Guide

1
Identify the pins
Locate VCC (power), GND (ground), and data pins (SDA/SCL for I2C, MOSI/MISO for SPI, or TX/RX for UART). Refer to the pinout diagram on the product page.
2
Wire to your microcontroller
Connect VCC to 3.3V or 5V (check the module spec), GND to GND, and data pins to the appropriate GPIO pins on your Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
3
Install libraries
In Arduino IDE, go to Sketch → Include Library → Manage Libraries and search for the sensor library. Install the recommended version.
4
Upload example sketch
Open File → Examples → [library name] → Basic Example. Upload to your board and open Serial Monitor to view output.
5
Calibrate if needed
Some sensors (temperature, humidity, distance) may need a short warm-up period or calibration. Run the calibration sketch if provided.
