The MQ136 Hydrogen sulfide gas detection module belongs to the MQ gas sensor family infamous for its use in the early detection and warning of toxic concentrations of harmful gases in a closeby vicinity. The core sensing material of the MQ136 gas sensor is SnO2, offering a lower conductivity under nominal conditions (clean air) and a higher conductivity ratio when the target hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) reaches a dangerous concentration in the nearby vicinity.

MQ136 H2S gas sensor is easily interfaceable with almost every MCU such as Arduino Uno, ESP32, NodeMCU, etc, allowing the obtained data to communicate over various different mediums and IoT devices.
