... The type of gas detected depends on which module you are using. 27930 detects Methane (CH4), 27931 detects Carbon Monoxide (CO), 27932 detects Propane (LPG) and 27904 detects Alcohol (C2H5OH). Interfacing with these sensors is done through a 4-pin SIP header and requires two I/O pins from the host microcontroller ...
