フィガロ技研 List of Products and Services

The gas sensor is composed of a heater formed on a silicon substrate using MEMS technology and a metal oxide semiconductor formed on its support substrate. The power consumption is very low at 0.087mW (average value), making it suitable for applications in low-power and battery-operated devices. When detectable gases are present in the air, the electrical conductivity of the sensor increases with higher gas concentrations. A simple electrical circuit can convert such changes in electrical conductivity into a voltage output signal corresponding to the gas concentration. The TGS8410 is equipped with a filter cap to eliminate the influence of interfering gases such as alcohol, demonstrating high selectivity for methane gas. It is an ideal gas sensor for household gas leak detectors, especially in harsh environments. ◆ For more details, please contact Figaro Engineering directly.

The gas sensor consists of a metal oxide semiconductor formed on an alumina substrate along with an integrated heater. When detectable gases are present, the sensor's conductivity increases as the concentration of the gas in the air rises. Using a simple electrical circuit, this change in conductivity can be converted into an output signal corresponding to the gas concentration. The TGS2600 has high sensitivity to tobacco smoke and cooking odors. By using relative value detection (which detects air pollution based on how much the sensor's resistance changes from a baseline of clean air), it achieves control that is closer to human perception. The heater current is small at 42mA, and it operates at a constant voltage of DC5V, making it a very user-friendly sensor that is widely used for controlling air purifiers and similar applications. ◆ For more details, please contact Figaro Engineering directly.
