Industry NewsIn industrial production processes, the emission and leakage of harmful gases are significant threats to personnel safety and environmental health. Nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), a common toxic gas, is widely present in industries such as chemical, mining, energy, and metallurgy. Long-term exposure or high-concentration exposure can cause serious damage to the human respiratory system. Therefore, accurate and reliable monitoring of NO₂ concentration has become an indispensable part of industrial safety protection systems.
Tensensor's MQ-E3-NO₂ nitrogen dioxide gas sensor is a high-performance electrochemical sensor designed to address this industrial monitoring need. With its superior detection performance and stable environmental adaptability, it has become a preferred component in industrial gas detection equipment.

MQ-E3-NO2 Electrochemical NO2 Sensor
Product Overview
The MQ-E3-NO₂ is an electrochemical sensor that accurately detects gas concentration by measuring the current generated during the redox reaction of nitrogen dioxide at the working electrode. This sensor features low power consumption, high accuracy, a wide linear range, and strong anti-interference capabilities, making it suitable for various harsh industrial environments.
