Product catalog summary
Product Overview: The MST136 is a semiconductor gas sensor designed for air quality monitoring. It is highly sensitive to a variety of trace gases, including ammonia, hydrogen, alcohol, and carbon monoxide, among others. The sensor operates by detecting changes in conductivity when exposed to these gases, making it suitable for applications in air purification systems and the Internet of Things.
Features: Key features include low power consumption, long life, low cost, small size, and high sensitivity to low concentration gases. It is easy to integrate with simple application circuits and offers high consistency.
Main Applications: The sensor is used in air quality testers, ventilation fan control modules, odor detection modules, and automatic control modules for air purifiers.
Specifications: The MST136 model is packaged in a Metal TO-05 standard and detects gases like hydrogen and alcohol within specified ranges. It operates with a heating voltage of 5.0±0.2V DC/AC and requires a preheating time of at least 24 hours. The response time is ≤30 seconds, and desorption time is ≤60 seconds.
Pin Definition and Basic Circuit: The sensor has a planar device structure with a heating wire and semiconductor-sensitive material. Pins 1 and 2 are for the heating circuit, while pins 3 and 4 are for the measurement circuit. The heating and measurement can share the same power circuit.
Attention and Handling: The sensor must be protected from silicone vapors, corrosive environments, water exposure, icing, and excessive voltage. Long-term storage and exposure to extreme environments should be avoided to prevent degradation of sensor characteristics. Manual welding is recommended, with specific conditions for wave soldering to maintain sensor integrity.

Specification Model number The planar device structure is shown in the figure. A heating wire is stabilized on a ceramic sheet, a gold electrode lead is connected at both ends, and a semiconductor-sensitive material is coated between the two electrodes. The heating material can heat the entire ceramic sheet to 200-400°C, so that the sensor can reach the required operating temperature. The opposite electrode on the outside of the tube core can measure the electrical characteristics of the material in real time. The corresponding figure of the welding leads of the sensor is shown in the figure....

Semiconductor gas sensor series Attention 1. Must avoid the situation 1.1 Exposure to silicone vapors If silicone vapor is adsorbed on the surface of the sensor, the sensitive material of the sensor will be coated, inhibiting the sensitivity of the sensor, and can not be recovered. Sensors should be protected from exposure to silicone adhesives, hairspray, silicone rubber, putty, or other silicon-containing plastic additives where they may be present. 1.2 Highly corrosive environment Exposure of sensors to high concentrations of corrosive gases (such as H2S, SOX, Cl2, HCl, etc.) will not only...

Semiconductor gas sensor series clean air and no silicone. Sensors that have been stored for a long time need to be energized for a long time before use to stabilize them. 2.4 Long-term exposure to extreme environments Whether the sensor is powered on or not, the sensor performance will be seriously affected if it is exposed to extreme conditions for a long time, such as high humidity, high temperature, or high pollution. 2.5 Vibration Frequent and excessive vibration will lead to resonance of the sensitive element and fracture. The use of pneumatic screwdriver/ultrasonic welders in transit and...
