CO Gas Sensor

I have been working with the CO Gas Sensor Module 27931, and I managed to get some calibration results with a butane hair curler. However the Alarm seems to go off for quite a while, I am wondering how this is affected or controlled, any help would be much appreciated.

thanks Kayleigh

    Interesting that you mention this.· I set up the same experiment with a Braun butane hair curler
    a few months ago and had the same results.· I ask the gentleman that designed it and he mentioned that it takes a while for the gas to dissipate from the sensor and therefore the alarm pin stays high.
