Arduino Gas Detecting Alarm System

This document describes how to build an Arduino gas detecting alarm system using a gas sensor, LCD display, piezo buzzer, and LEDs. The system detects gas leaks and displays an alert message on the LCD while sounding the buzzer. It uses an MQ2 gas sensor connected to an Arduino to detect gas levels. If gas is detected, the LCD shows an evacuation message and the buzzer sounds continuously until gas levels fall. Otherwise, it shows an all clear message. The schematic and code are provided to wire the components and program the Arduino board.

Arduino Gas Detecting Alarm System

by 909804

Hello, everyone! Right now, I'll be explaining how to build an Arduino gas detecting alarm system in tinkercad. This
circuit uses the gas sensor to detect if there is re, smoke, or gas leakage nearby. Using the LCD and the alarm, this
circuit also can display its “Gas Leakage Alert” message, while alerting people nearby.

Supplies:

1 Arduino uno
1 MQ2 gas sensor
4 1k ohms resistors
1 4.7k ohms resistor
1 Piezo buzzer
2 di erent color LEDs(I'll be using the red and green LEDs in this case)
1 LCD(16x2)
1 breadboard
Many wires of di erent colors

Step 1: About Project and Schematic Drawing

Arduino Gas Detecting Alarm System: Page 1


We have used a gas sensor module to detect gases. If buzzer. Then the LCD would show the “Evacuate"
a gas leakage occurs, the sensor gives a HIGH pulse message and activates the piezo buzzer which beeps
and when the Arduino gets a HIGH pulse from the again and again until the gas detector doesn't sense
sensor, it sends a signal to the LCD and the piezo the gas in the environment. Else, the gas sensor gives

LOW pulse to the Arduino, then LCD would then show


the “All Clear” message.

Step 2: Gather All the Supplies

Step 3: Setup(Part 1)

Steps

1. Connect Arduino 5V to positive power rail
2. Connect Arduino GND to negative power rail
3. Connect Arduino A0 to gas sensor B1
4. Connect gas sensor A1, H2, A2 to positive power rail
5. Connect gas sensor H2 to ground
6. Connect gas sensor B2 to 4.7k ohms resistor, then to ground
7. Connect piezo positive terminal to Arduino pin 4
8. Connect piezo negative terminal to 1k ohms resistor, then to ground
9. Connect the cathodes of the two LEDs to 1k ohms resistor, then to ground
10. Connect the anode of the red LED to Arduino pin 2
11. Connect the anode of the green LED to Arduino pin 3

Step 4: Setup(Part 2)

1. Connect LCD ground, contrast, and LED cathode to ground


2. Connect LCD anode to 1k ohms resistor, then to the positive power rail
3. Connect LCD power to the positive power rail
4. Connect LCD register select to Arduino pin 5
5. Connect LCD read/write to ground
6. Connect LCD enable to Arduino pin 6
7. Connect LCD terminal 4,5,6,7 to Arduino pin 8,9,10,11

Step 6: Run the Simulation

When you run the simulation, the LCD should be able to display both safe and evaluate messages, while the piezo
buzzer should be able to beep if the gas sensor detect any gas leaks. If anything works just like you thought, then
congratulation to you for making it to the end.
