The SMT-024 has high sensitivity to methane gas. Since it has low sensitivity to volatile alcohol (a common interfering gas in residential environments), it is an ideal sensor for household gas leak detector. The power consumption of SMT -024 is only about 65mA, and the sensor uses a standard TO-5 metal package. A simple circuit can be used to convert the change in target gas concentration into an output electric signal which corresponding to the gas concentration.
