## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=SEN0568:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/SEN0568:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Fermion: MEMS Hydrogen Sulfide H2S Gas Detection Sensor employs state-of-the-art micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) technology, endowing the sensor with compact dimensions (13x13x2.5mm), low power consumption (&lt;20mA), minimal heat generation, short preheating time, and swift response recovery. The sensor can qualitatively measure the concentration of hydrogen sulfide gas, and is suitable for hydrogen sulfide detection in toilets, sewers, garbage stations and other places.

The MEMS series currently encompasses 11 different types of gas sensors ([HCHO](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-formaldehyde-hcho-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-0-3ppm.html), [CO](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-carbon-monoxide-co-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-5-5000ppm.html), [CH4](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-methane-ch4-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-1-10000ppm.html), [VOC](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-volatile-organic-compounds-voc-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-1-500ppm.html), [NH3](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-ammonia-nh3-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-1-300ppm.html), [H2S](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-hydrogen-sulfide-h2s-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-05-50ppm.html), [EtOH](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-ethanol-etoh-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-1-500ppm.html), [Smoke](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-smoke-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-10-1000ppm.html), [Odor](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-odor-smell-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-05-50ppm.html), [H2](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-hydrogen-h2-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-01-1000ppm.html), [NO2](https://core-electronics.com.au/fermion-mems-nitrogen-dioxide-no2-gas-detection-sensor-breakout-01-10ppm.html)), which can be combined as per specific requirements.

**Please note:** This sensor is capable of only qualitative measurements.

**Precautions for use**

- Kindly remove the protective film before usage.
- To prevent exposure to volatile silicon compounds vapors (such as silicone adhesive, hair gel, silicone rubber, or other locations where volatile silicon compounds are present).
- Avoid exposure to high concentrations of corrosive gases (such as H2S, SOX, Cl2, HCl, etc.).
- Prevent contamination from alkalis, alkali metal salts, and halogens.
- Refrain from prolonged exposure to extreme environments (such as high temperatures, high humidity, high pollution).
- Avoid contact with water, condensation, and freezing.
- Minimize excessive vibration, impact, and dropping.
- Please refrain from employing this module in systems that involve personal safety concerns.
- For extended periods of non-usage, it is advisable to preheat the module for at least 24 hours.
