PRODUCT INFORMATION
TGS 2612 - for the detection of Methane and LP Gas
Features:
* Low power consumption * Similar sensitivity at same %LEL levels for both methane and LP gas * Long life and low cost * Uses simple electrical circuit
Applications:
* Residential LNG and LPG alarms * Portable combustible gas leak detectors * Detectors for LNG and LPG
The sensing element is comprised of a metal oxide semiconductor layer formed on an alumina substrate of a sensing chip together with an integrated heater. In the presence of a detectable gas, the sensor's conductivity increases depending on the gas concentration in the air. A simple electrical circuit can convert the change in conductivity to an output signal which corresponds to the gas concentration.
