Getting right PPM from MQ sensors

[@joseluisdiaz233]

Can you share your code? I dont understand where the values of the lnPPM are in the code

[@silvanadiaz1308]

Hello, i'm sorry, but i can't seem to understand where did you use the equations calculated on excel, i don't understand where does the values in your code come from, and what value of Rl are you using. Would you mind sharing your full code? Thanks for the video, btw. Greetings from Chile

[@shivamsahil3660]

He calibrated it by real time experimenting.

is it same how to calculate ppm of MQ-2 or MQ-3?

[@esthervs4080]

hi sir could u pls explain hw did u use the value -2.6 and 2.7 in lgppm =( log(ratio)*-2.6) + 2.7

[@cuongleba6247]

Your tutorila is useful for me , but where do you get -2.6 and 2.7 ?

[@khairjuani8993]

@DroneTechnologies How can we calibrate the sensor if temperature and humidity are being factored. Since the sensor influence by temperature and humidity as well (datasheet on 2nd graph). I think surroung condition affect the reading.

[@darioramljak7914]

Hi there, thank you for sharing this video, that's a really easy way of getting approximation function for MQ relation graphs. Question, how do you relate Ro and Rl resistance? Ro is a sense resistance in 1000ppm of H2, and Rl is load resistance.

[@arifianhutama8612]

Hi, your tutorial is good, but if you share your code for calibrated mq sensor it will better than before. Thanks

[@rajashekarh4281]

Sir. I really doesn't understand it, the sensor output is already in ppm values only, why you create anothe column named as "inPpm" what is the purpose of it ?

[@davecs8404]

thank you very much for very nice explanation. but how about MQ7 and MQ135 i gonna to use them. please clarify for me!!

[@MrFercho459]

hello, do you have any patron where you could confirmate the values? becuase if the sensor could have some error, we can have some CI to acondition this error..

[@mokranlechat]

hi sir, could u tell how to process with mq7 sensor? i need to understand how to calibration is possible as well. thks.

[@dinurwahyupratiwi5160]

hello, i just started my new project with mq2. can i get full code for this mq2 ?

[@JamesWylde]

Most people programming an Arduino or otherwise know what a log plot is vs a linear plot. The part that most people struggle with is that the datasheet give R/R0 vs ppm, not Aout vs ppm. This video completely glosses over that despite the title saying it does.

[@askhatzhangirbayev1094]

hello)) how to get ppm value from figaro tgs2600 gas sensor ?

[@candrasuceng4259]

hello I have a question, what gas coordinates are you using?

[@RonaldArthur]

The coordinates depends on the type on MQ sensor you get. In my video I used MQ2 for demonstration

[@candrasuceng4259]

@@RonaldArthur for example in the video, you take the coordinates of what gas?

[@LetchikBulochkin]

I find too many negative comments out here. Your video was superuseful for me, so many thanks. However, I don't quite understand, why you put your calculations back to LN. In order to save MCU memory? I don't hope to get any answers here, but who knows.

[@clip8327]

The problem is Ro (clean air) often changed the values hour by hour. Voltage regulator is not smooth too.

[@19trwind82]

You can adjust for that by using an analog pin to measure the voltage. Let's say you use analogRead(A5) / 1023.0 * 5 as REF_LEVEL to measure VCC, then you add in your code: float outputVoltage = (5.0 / REF_LEVEL) * voltage sensor. However, the major flaw in this tutorial is that R0 is replaced by R_load. You can be sure that the values are incorrect and probably not even close to the actual ppm's. Although with these sensors you will never be able to accurately tell. You basically need to have a known ppm in a test lab environment to calibrate the sensor. These sensors are good for measuring sudden changes. For instance if your house is on fire.

[@joshyehezkielnuseraparinus6448]

is it same how to calculate ppm of MQ-2 or MQ-3?

[@phamminhang7059]

why Vrl= adc_rd * Vadc_5? could anyone explain this for me?

[@nileshaqua]

Natural log is base e . Why are you using base 10 than ??

[@procast]

Ratio = Rs/Rl? Obviously the datasheet says Rs/R0 which R0 is the point of LPG is at 1000PPM. Nothing in this video makes any sense.

[@bhagasasi425]

But how he find the linear function is very useful

Rl is Load Resistor, we need Ro.

Can you please share your code.

[@ManOleg38]

Can you make a documentation paper?

[@YasirFaur]

where is R0?!

[@mostafavafaei2629]

The first and important step is how could you find the exact scale of calibration curve?! How do you know 200ppm is equal to 1.6 and etc...?

[@FSchottz]

reading the graphic on datasheet

[@FSchottz]

if you pay more attention, the "Rs/Ro" line on graphic is between 0.1 and 1 and each line represents 0.1 more till get 1. After that each line represents 1 till get 10. The same applies to PPM Line. ;)

Did you got any solution?? I'm also stuck in calculating the ppm

[@daydreamers845]

How about mq138

[@sankarg100]

Hi could you send me the code

[@bgv1995]

Thank you for your video! Even if this MQ sensor can measure multiple gases, can it measure multiple gases at the same time? For example could we run it in a random room and read the ppms for each gas or does it work assuming that a single gas will be measured

[@19trwind82]

It can measure multiple gasses at the same time. However, you will not be able to tell which gas you have measured. You could only perhaps tell from your environment. For instance, you expect alcohol in your breath after drinking alcohol, you expect carbon monoxide when you light a candle.

[@vitalijsfescenko5055]

How do you measure Load Resistance (RL), I have a multimeter and same type of sensor

[@pong301275cmu]

this is just only R that used for measured V across RL to calculated R of sensor (Rs) by using potential divider technique.

[@kenshintemp6431]

[@ManOleg38]

And of course where a code?

[@frankran2499]

Excelente guia :like:

[@MrFatihenesuzun]

This is complete bullshit.İn the code you define the ratio as ratio = Rs/RL but it is abvious in datasheet that ratio is RS/Ro so all that formulla is wrong and why no one realize that.?_?

[@19trwind82]

I saw it too right away. It doesn't make any sense. I do think more people have realized this. If this would be correct, then you must know what RL the manufacturer has used. Usually you can choose from a range (oversimplified, higher RL means more sensitive readings), which means the Rs/R0 in the datasheet would be very likely different from yours. It is just not that easy.

[@vimalsheoran8040]

Well, many people also failed to notice that the sensor resistance i.e Rs is simply equal to (5 - Vrl)/Vrl

[@abiudbanda]

Hello sir, I don't get it on how you used the formulas in the excel in your code? more elaboration will do . pleas send me explanation on [e-mail] will appreciate. Am using MQ-2, MQ-4 and MQ-7 all together in one sensor node. how do I incorporate all these in one code so that the LCD(20x4) diplays the values in ppm using Arduino uno as the MCU.

[@edgarpalacios5150]

Correct me if i'm wrong, but I believe the formula should be logppm=(log(Ratio)+log(Intercept))/Slope. Then ppm=pow(e,logppm)
