210mA Gas Detection Sensor With Explosion Proof Signal,Operating voltage 3.0VDC

Introduction

The methane sensor, operating at 3.3V, utilizes TD-LAS technology with a 1653.7nm laser to identify methane by its unique absorption spectrum, unaffected by water vapor or other gas interference. Its design combines direct and wavelength modulation absorption techniques, featuring an "N" type optical path structure for extended detection sensitivity. Using a low-temperature laser and temperature compensation algorithms, it performs reliably in diverse environments. Its standard interface and protocol allow broad compatibility, making it widely applicable in methane leak detection systems in industries such as mining, catering, and industrial chemicals.

Technical Parameters:

Applications:

a) The sensor continuously outputs the measured methane concentration, measured temperature, measured pressure, laser signal strength, laser operating temperature and fault code through the standard TTL serial port

b) It has a self-test function, which can detect whether the laser, photoelectric detector and voltage stabilization sensor are normal, which helps to eliminate the fault point.

Communication Interface and Definition

Interface form: SH1.0mm/4P

Cable length: 200mm

Communication Protocol

(1) Communication interface configuration

UART serial port: Baud rate: 115200, data bits: 8 bits,

Stop bit: 1 bit, parity bit: no check

(2) Description of communication protocol

After the sensor is powered on, it goes through a period of preprocessing (6-10s) and then begins to periodically (1Hz) output a fixed-length string. The string format is shown in the figure above.

Output string parsing (sample):

A 000.00 + 24.0 + 1006.22 + 16.1 + 006.0 B 00 13

A: the frame head;

+000.00: methane concentration value, two decimal places reserved, unit %vol;

+ 24.0: the environment temperature, the unit ℃;

1006.22: the environment pressure, the unit hPa;

16.1: the laser light intensity and effective range 3.6 21.6;

006.0: magnification factor, normal range 1.0-126.0;

00: fault codes

01: abnormal optical signal; 02; Ambient temperature or abnormal pressure; Optical signal is too strong; 04 laser temperature anomaly;

05: light signal is too weak;

13: xor check code

Fault Code

Precautions

a) The working voltage of the sensor is 3.3V, and the serial interface level is 3.3V;

b) sensor contains precision optical components, please avoid violent collision;

c) Working environment conditions: -40℃ ~ +70℃

d) Relative humidity 0-99% RH (non-condensation).

Note: The working voltage of the sensor is 3.3V. It is forbidden to connect the power supply voltage exceeding 3.6VDC to the sensor to avoid damage to the sensor.
