Perancangan Alat Pendeteksi Kebocoran Tabung Gas ELPIJI Berbasis Arduino Uno

Abstract

Gas is a combustible mixture composed of hydrocarbon gases, comprising methane. Gases can also contain ethane, propane, butane, pentane, and also sulfur-containing gases. Basically the purpose of this research is to create a tool that can detect gas leakage and apply as an early warning by using gas sensor MQ-2, Arduino Uno as a component brain that acts as a central data processing. The combination of the Arduino Uno with the MQ-2 gas sensor and the supporting tool is a good enough tool in detecting the presence of gas in the air. The research method used in this research is prototype method. This detection tool is made using module Arduino Uno which in the program by using programming language skech and the computer as the interface. Based on the research results can be concluded that the tool designed to know the occuttence of gas leakage and gas leaked levels will be displayed on the LCD 16x2, Buzzer will sound when it has reached the danger limit.
