Winsen MQ-8 Hydrogen Gas Sensor Module - 5V DC, 100-1000ppm
The Winsen MQ-8 is a semiconductor gas sensor module designed for hydrogen (H2) detection, compatible with 5V DC power supplies and providing both analog and digital output signals for easy integration with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller platforms.
Features
- Semiconductor SnO2 sensor for hydrogen (H2) detection in the 100–1000 ppm range.
- Operates on a 5.0V DC heater voltage with a simple drive circuit for easy interfacing.
- Provides both analog (2.5–4.0V in 1000ppm H2) and digital output signal options.
- Bakelite base with metal cap encapsulation ensures stable performance and durability.
- High sensitivity to hydrogen with selectivity against common interfering gases.

The Winsen MQ-8 hydrogen gas sensor utilizes a tin dioxide (SnO2) semiconductor sensing element. In clean air, the sensor’s conductivity is low. When hydrogen gas is present, the conductivity increases proportionally with the gas concentration. This change in conductivity is converted into a corresponding output voltage signal through an external load resistor, enabling precise concentration measurement.
Designed for long-term reliability, the sensor features a robust bakelite base and metal cap construction. It is calibrated for optimal performance under standard conditions of 20°C ±2°C and 55% ±5% relative humidity. The module is engineered for integration into safety monitoring systems, leak detection setups, and educational projects requiring hydrogen sensing.
