Adjustable Flame Sensor Module with 2 Channels 3.3-12V

Description

What it is

The Flame Sensor Module 2 Channels 3.3-12V Adjustable is an electronic device designed to detect the presence of flames or fire. Equipped with two independent channels, it allows monitoring two points of interest simultaneously.

Features

• 2 flame detection channels
• Supply voltage: 3.3-12V
• Adjustable

What it is for

This module is ideal for security, alarm, and control system projects in domestic or industrial environments. It can be used to create a fire alarm system that sends a notification upon flame detection. Compatibility with Arduino and ESP should be verified in the datasheet.

Tutorial: How to use Flame Sensor Module with 2 Channels

The adjustable two-channel flame sensor module is a useful device for monitoring the presence of flames or fire in domestic or industrial environments. Ideal for security, alarm, and control system projects.

What you need

• Arduino Uno
• Jumper Cable M/F
• LiPo Battery (optional)
• Relay Module (optional)

Steps

1. Connect the flame sensor module to the Arduino digital pins using jumper wires.
2. Adjust the sensitivity of the sensor according to the specific project requirements.
3. Write an Arduino sketch to read the state of the input channels.
4. Check if the module has sufficient power supply (3.3V-12V).
5. If necessary, connect a relay module to the flame sensor module to activate external devices in case of an alarm.
6. Test the system with a small flame or warm light and adjust the sensitivity further if necessary.
7. Implement additional features such as sending notifications over the internet (optional).
8. Install a battery protector if a LiPo power source is used.

Example code

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() {
  int sensorValue = digitalRead(A1); // Verifica sul datasheet il pin corretto
  if (sensorValue == HIGH) {
    Serial.println("Fiamma rilevata");
  }
}

Mini project

Create a fire alarm system that sends an email notification when fire is detected.

Common mistakes

• Connect the sensor module to a voltage higher than the allowed range (check the datasheet).
• Do not adjust the sensor sensitivity before using it.
• Omit the use of a relay module to activate external devices in case of alarm.
• Ignore preliminary tests and skip directly to the final phase.

Recommended accessories

• Relay Module
• LiPo Battery 3.7V 2000mAh
• ESP8266 Wi-Fi Module
• 16×2 LCD Display
