The Taguchi Gas Sensor


After doing some research and some advise from Tn Hj.Dr. Zainuddin i finally choose the Taguchi gas sensor (TGS2600) to apply in this project, , TGS2600 will be chose as a gas detector due to the small size, high sensitivity and lower price compared to other gas sensor. This sensor is widely used in many sensor and detector applications.



  • Why i choose TGS 2600?



  1. This sensor is widely used in many applications such as in robotic machinery, smart extinguisher, aromatherapy sensing and many more. The characteristic of this sensor has been compared with the newly developed sensor for benchmarking purposes. This shows that the TGS2600 is a very reliable sensor for detecting air contaminant level in the environment.
  2. The TGS 2600 has high sensitivity to low concentrations of gaseous air contaminants such as hydrogen and carbon monoxide which exist in cigarette smoke. The sensor can detect hydrogen at a level of several ppm. Figaro also offers a microprocessor (FIC02667) which contains special software for handling the sensor's signal for appliance control applications
