MQ-3 Alcohol and Ethanol Gas Sensor Module – 5V Analog Digital Output

QAR 19.00/ unit

Description

The MQ-3 Alcohol and Ethanol Gas Sensor Module is designed for detecting alcohol vapors in air, making it suitable for breathalyzer and alcohol monitoring applications. It operates at 5V DC and provides both analog (0–5V) and digital (TTL) outputs for flexible integration with microcontrollers. The onboard comparator and adjustable potentiometer allow threshold calibration for reliable detection. Built for stable performance, it supports Arduino and other 5V development platforms. Ideal for breath alcohol testers, safety systems, and embedded gas detection projects.
