MQ-7 Carbon Monoxide Sensor Circuit Built With An Arduino

MQ-7 Carbon Monoxide Sensor Circuit Built with an Arduino MQ-7 carbon monoxide sensor

In this project, we will go over how to build a carbon monoxide sensor circuit with an arduino.

The carbon monoxide sensor we will use is the MQ-7 sensor. This is a sensor that is sensitive to effects of CO.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a very dangerous gas which is odorless, colorless, and tasteless, so it cannot be smelt, seen, or tasted. A person really would have no idea that they are breathing in CO besides the fact that they would start to feel horrible. The most common symptoms of CO poisoning is headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, fatigue, and a feeling of weakness. Neurological signs include confusion, disorientation, visual disturbance, syncope, and seizures.

Carbon monoxide is produced from the partial oxidation of carbon-containing compounds; it forms when there is not enough oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO
