    LPG Gas Leakage Detector Using Arduino

    Uploaded by

    Shivam Uikey
    This Arduino-based system detects LPG gas leaks and alerts users. It uses an LPG gas sensor module connected to an Arduino board to detect gas. When gas is detected, the system activates a buzzer and displays an alert message on an LCD screen. When no gas is detected, it shows a message indicating no leakage. The system is easy to build and use, making it a simple way to monitor for dangerous LPG leaks around the home.

    Arduino based LPG Gas Detector


    While LPG is an essential need of every household, its leakage could lead to a disaster. To
    alert on LPG leakage and prevent any mishappening there are various products to detect
    the leakage. Here we have developed an Arduino based LPG gas detector alarm. If gas
    leakage occurs, this system detects it and makes an alert by buzing the buzzer attached
    with the circuit. This system is easy to build and anyone who have some knowledge of
    electronics and programing, can build it..

    We have used a LPG gas sensor module to detect LPG Gas. When LPG gas leakage
    occurs, it gives a HIGH pulse on its DO pin and arduino continuously reads its DO pin.
    When Arduino gets a HIGH pulse from LPG Gas module it shows “LPG Gas Leakage Alert”
    message on 16x2 LCD and activates buzzer which beeps again and again until the gas
    detector module doesn't sense the gas in environment. When LPG gas detector module
    gives LOW pulse to arduino, then LCD shows “No LPG Gas Leakage” message. 
    Components Used
    1. Arduino Pro Mini
    2. LPG Gas sensor Module
    3. Buzzer
    4. BC 547 Transistor
    5. 16x2 LCD
    6. 1K resistor
    7. Bread board
    8. 9 volt battery
    9. Connecting wires

    LPG Gas Sensor Module


    This module contains a MQ3 sensor which actually detects LPG gas, a comparator (LM393)
    for comparing MQ3 output voltage with reference voltage. It gives a HIGH output when LPG
    gas  is sensed. A potentiometer is also used for controlling sensitivity of gas sensing. This
    module is very easy to interface with microcontrollers and arduino and easily available in
    market by name “LPG Gas Sensor Module”. We can also build it by using LM358 or LM393
    and MQ3.
    Circuit Diagram and Description
    As shown in the schematic diagram above, it contains Arduino board, LPG GAS Sensor
    Module, buzzer and 16x2 LCD module. Arduino controls the whole process of this system
    like reading LPG Gas sensor module output, sending message to LCD and activating
    buzzer. We can set sensitivity of this sensor module by inbuilt potentiometer placed on it. 

    LPG gas sensor module's DO pin is directly connected to pin 18 (A4) of Arduino and Vcc
    and GND are connected to Vcc and GND of arduino. LPG gas sensor module consist a
    MQ3 sensor which detects LPG gas. This MQ3 sensor has a heater inside which needs
    some heater supply to heat up and it may takes up to 15 minute to get ready for detecting
    LPG gas. And a comparator circuit is used for converting Analog output of MQ3 in digital.
    A 16x2 LCD is connected with arduino in 4-bit mode. Control pin RS, RW and En are
    directly connected to arduino pin 2, GND and 3. And data pin D0-D7 are connected to 4, 5,
    6, 7 of arduino. A buzzer is connected with arduino pin number 13 through a NPN BC547
    transistor having a 1 k resistor at its base.

    Program Description
    In programming we have used digital read function to read output of LPG gas sensor
    module and then performed operation according to input.

    For testing this project we have used a cigarette lighter which contains LPG gas.

    Code
    #include <LiquidCrystal.h>
    LiquidCrystal lcd(3, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7);

    #define lpg_sensor 18
    #define buzzer 13

    void setup() 
    {
      pinMode(lpg_sensor, INPUT);
      pinMode(buzzer, OUTPUT);
      lcd.begin(16, 2);
      lcd.print("LPG Gas Detector");
      lcd.setCursor(0,1);
      lcd.print("Circuit Digest");
      delay(2000);
    }

    void loop() 
    {
      if(digitalRead(lpg_sensor))
     {
        digitalWrite(buzzer, HIGH);
        lcd.clear();
        lcd.print("LPG Gas Leakage");
        lcd.setCursor(0, 1);
        lcd.print("     Alert     ");
        delay(400);
        digitalWrite(buzzer, LOW);
        delay(500);
     }
      
      else 
     {
        digitalWrite(buzzer, LOW);
        lcd.clear();
        lcd.print("  No LPG Gas ");
        lcd.setCursor(0,1);
        lcd.print("   Leakage   ");
        delay(1000);
     }
    }
