How to choose A Gas Sensor

2016-03-18

If you search "gas sensor" on www.winsen-sensor.com , you can find a lot of gas sensor. We know that the air component is diverse, and a certain gas sensor can detect one or more air components, so we designed a series of gas sensor.

There are about several kinds of gas sensor for sale. They have similar name, it's likely to cause confusion. Hope that through the following presentation, we can help you to choose the appropriate gas sensor easily. 

Pls check below different model for different gas, detection range, and application ects.
