Implementation of a Gas Leakage Detection System Using the MQ-6 Sensor

Abstract

The role of gas at this time is very important for human life. The use of gas is expanding from household, industrial to transportation needs.Remember the depletion of petroleum supplies. This makes gas as an alternative fuel to replace the main role of petroleum. The risk of using gas as fuel is the occurrence of gas leaks which can have an impact on large-scale fires. A detection system is designed to detect gas leaks with the MQ-6 sensor and solenoid valve to close the gas line. The research was conducted by testing the voltage from the sensor using a predetermined program. The maximum reading distance from the gas sensor is 18 cm with a time of 45.26 seconds based on tests carried out by narrowing the gas exit path to provide a faster rate effect so that the sensor can detect gas.

Design of Arduino-based LPG Gas Leak Detection Tool using MQ-6 Sensor

“…Arduino Uno has 14 digital input/output pins (or usually written I/O, of which 14 pins can be used as PWM output, including pins 0 to 13), six analog input pins, using a 16 MHz crystal, including pins A0 to A5, USB connection, a power jack, ICSP header and reset button. This is all needed to support a microcontroller circuit (Juliantoro et al, 2022).…”

Gas Leakage Detection System Using IoT And cloud Technology: A Review

“…The investigation involved utilizing a preset programmer to evaluate the sensor's voltage. Based on tests conducted by narrowing the gas escape path to give a faster rate effect so that the sensor can detect gas [5].Liquid petroleum gas (LPG), which is extremely flammable, can burn even a ways from the site of the leak. The key contributing element in the majority of fire incidents is poor construction.…”

Analisis Pengukuran Tahanan Kontak dan Tahanan Pertanahan Pada Pemutus Tenaga

“…Berdasarkan IEV (International Electrotechnical Vocabulary) 441-14-20 disebutkan bahwa Circuit Breaker (CB) atau Pemutus Tenaga (PMT) merupakan peralatan saklar / switching mekanis, yang mampu menutup, mengalirkan (dalam periode waktu tertentu) dan memutus arus beban dalam spesifik kondisi abnormal/gangguan seperti kondisi hubung singkat atau short circuit (Tommy, 2022).…”
