Figaro 813 Gas Sensor Type Propane, butane, methane, alcohol, hydrogen (Ø x H) 17 mm x 10 mm TGS-813 Data Sheet

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

. . .

TGS #813 is a general purpose Sensor which has good sensitivity characteristics

to a wide range of gases.

. . .

TGS ß813 is designed to operate with a stabilized 5V heater supply  and a

circuit voltage not exceeding 24V.

. ..The most suitable application  for the TGS #813 is the detection  of methane,

propane and butane which makes it an excellent  Sensor  for domestic gas leak

detectors.

. ..The initial stabilization 

time 

of the TGS 8813 is very short and the relative

and elapsed characteristics are very good over a long period of Operation.

. . .

TGS #813 has a very low sensitivity to 'noise-gases'  which considerably

reduces the Problem  of nuisance alarming.

The TGS 8813 is most practically employed in a circuit design which maintains

circuit voltages at fixed values under 24V (Ex.

5,6,12, or 24V are suitable)

and with the heater voltage stabilized at 5V.

These voltage  ratings are very practical when determining your design specifications
because  of the wide range of available components. This makes the use of the
TGS #813 an especially econimical way to design low-tost, highly reliable gas
detection circuits.

Because of its especially high sensitivity to methane, propane and butane, the
TGS #813 is very practical for Town Gas and LPG monitoring.

With the added

features of a short-initial  stabilization period and highly reliable elapsed

characteristics, the TGS #813  represents a new generation of gas Sensors from
Figaro.
