# DFRobot_MultiGasSensor
- [中文版](./README_CN.md)

Gas sensors are widely applied to many fields such as gas research, environmental detection, production safety monitoring, dissolved gas analysis, pollution source/outlet law research, detection of toxic and harmful and combustible gas, laboratory or on-site simple gas analysis and testing, etc. This Multi-gas Sensor can be used with a variety of gas probes to detect hazardous gas concentration.

## Summary

This Gas Sensor can be used in complex environments to detect different gas like O2, CO, H2S, 
NO2, O3, CL2, NH3, H2, HCL, SO2, HF and PH3, which is achieved by just switching corresponding probes.
Meanwihle, it supports gas high/low threshold alarm.
