Product Details
IR Flame/Fire Sensor Module
Detect flame or strong infrared light with a compact IR photodiode sensor module for microcontroller prototypes. This listing is for the sensor module only; a host board, jumper wires, and enclosure are not included.
What it does
- Senses flame or IR light and presents a usable signal for embedded projects.
- Digital and analog outputs support threshold detection and relative intensity reading.
- On-board comparator and sensitivity adjustment (where fitted) help tune the detection threshold.
- Low-profile module suited to breadboard or jumper-wire hookup.
Compatibility and setup
- Works with common 3.3 V / 5 V microcontroller boards when pin levels are observed.
- Connect VCC, GND, and digital/analog outputs to free MCU pins; set a detection threshold in firmware.
- Avoid pointing at strong unintended IR sources that can cause false triggers.
- Not a certified fire-alarm device; use only for educational and experimental detection.
Applications
- Fire-detection demos and classroom experiments
- Robotics hazard sensing prototypes
- Arduino and ESP sensor laboratories
- DIY safety and automation learning projects
Package includes
- 1 × IR flame/fire sensor module
Electrical pinout and ratings vary by board revision; confirm silk-screen labels before wiring. Verified electrical details are listed in the Specifications section when present.
