Good sensitivity, easy integration

Integrated this into my car's ventilation system. It picks up smoke and strong perfumes very well. The only reason for 4 stars is that the documentation could be slightly more detailed for beginners.

Great addition to vehicle air quality control

Works flawlessly in my custom car setup. It triggers the fan automatically when it detects exhaust fumes at traffic lights. Very reliable sensor.

Excellent for IoT applications

Connected this to an ESP32 for a smart home dashboard. The data stream is consistent, and the form factor is small enough to fit anywhere. No issues so far.

Accurate and fast response

I tested this against a professional meter, and the readings were surprisingly close. The warm-up time is minimal, and it stays stable after the initial calibration period.

Perfect for my DIY air purifier project

This ZP01 module was exactly what I needed to upgrade my homemade air filter. The UART communication is straightforward, and it detects cooking odors almost instantly. Highly recommended for hobbyists.

Solid performance for the price

Using it to monitor air quality in my kitchen. It alerts me when something is burning before the smoke alarm goes off. Good value for money.

5 FAQ

Q: How do I calibrate the sensor if the readings seem off?

A: The sensor features an automatic baseline calibration function. To recalibrate, place the module in fresh, clean air for 24 hours while powered on. It will reset its baseline automatically.

Q: Can this detect carbon monoxide (CO)?

A: No, the ZP01 is specifically designed to detect Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and general odors. It is not calibrated for Carbon Monoxide detection. Please use a dedicated CO sensor for that purpose.

Q: What is the voltage logic level for the TX/RX pins?

A: The module operates at 3.3V logic levels. If you are connecting it to a 5V microcontroller, please use a logic level converter to prevent damage to the sensor.

Q: Does this module require a warm-up period before giving accurate readings?

A: Yes, the ZP01 typically requires a warm-up period of about 3 minutes upon first power-up to stabilize the sensor element. After that, it provides real-time data.

Q: Is there a library available for Arduino?

A: Yes, we provide a basic example library on our GitHub repository that supports Arduino and ESP8266/ESP32 platforms. You can find the link in the product manual.
