Specifications

Please note

The sensor must be preheated before use. The recommended warm-up time varies depending on the storage time of the sensor.

Precautions

• Do not place in vapor of volatile silicon compounds.
• Do not expose to high concentrations of corrosive gases.
• Do not place in water or ice.
• Module heats up when switched on, which is normal.
• Preheating required before measurement.

What is Grove?

Grove facilitates connection, experimentation and simplifies the prototyping process. No jumpers or soldering are required. More than 300 Grove modules have been developed to cover a wide range of applications and fulfill a variety of requirements. Not only the hardware is open source, but also the software. We offer different Grove Shields to connect to the Grove system with various microcontrollers.
