Specifications and other detailed information can be found in thedocumentation.

The product is compatible with Arduino

The manufacturer providesa sample programforArduino.

The sensor detects only the concentration of gases in the air. It does not distinguish them, and therefore, it cannot be concluded which of the gases has been detected. The module is intended for educational and hobbystic purposes. There is no guarantee of proper operation in medical, protective or other similar applications. Before use, the sensor requires calibration.

The module has holes for goldpin connectors, 2.54 mm pitch - strap is included in the set for self-soldering.
