TGS2616-C00 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The FIGARO TGS2616-C00 is a specialized gas sensor utilizing MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) technology for the detection of hydrogen. It is engineered for high selectivity towards hydrogen, minimizing interference from other gases like alcohol, which is crucial for reliable detection in demanding environments.

 

Key features include its small size and low power consumption, enabling integration into portable devices and systems where energy efficiency is important. The sensor operates with a simple electrical circuit, converting changes in conductivity due to gas presence into an output signal.

 

Typical applications for the TGS2616-C00 include hydrogen detection for steel plant safety, portable gas detectors, leak detection for gas appliances, hydrogen leak detectors for fuel cells, and safety measures for lithium-ion batteries. Its detection range for hydrogen is typically between 30 to 4000 ppm.

 

The sensor is housed in a standard TO-5 metal can package and is designed for through-hole mounting. It requires a heater voltage of 5.0V DC and a circuit voltage of 5.0V DC, with a typical heater power consumption of 280mW.
