smoke sensor compativility

[midzata]

hello,

will this sensor detect the presence of any type of combustion smoke? i'm interested if the smoke will be detected no matter of the material that is burning (wood, plastic, gasoline, alcohol, oil etc.).

i intend to use the sensor for detection fire in the forest. it will be connected with microcontroler development board, here are the specifications of the board:

Will the sensor be able to function with this board?

the sensor also needs to be little bit robust since it will be placed in outdoor environment, it will be put in protective housing but it will still have contact with hot/cold air but won't be directly exposed on sun, rain or show. thanks

best, mile

Hi friend;
Our gas sensors is suitable for detecting the concentration of combustible gas like LPG, town gas and natural gas. Smoke detector is more proper for you as you say.
