Figaro TGS 832 Gas Sensor Datasheet
The Figaro TGS 832 is a tin dioxide (SnO₂) semiconductor gas sensor designed for high sensitivity to halogenated refrigerants. It provides a simple electrical circuit that converts changes in sensor resistance into an output voltage proportional to gas concentration.
The document includes application notes, typical sensitivity curves, temperature/humidity dependency, pin connections, basic measuring circuit, and mechanical dimensions. It also lists the standard test conditions and electrical characteristics required for reliable operation.

Questions answered in these manuals
What heater voltage is required for the TGS 832?
The heater should be powered with 5 V ± 0.2 V (DC or AC).
How is the sensor’s output obtained in a basic circuit?
When the sensor is connected as shown, the voltage across the load resistor (V_RL) increases as the sensor resistance (Rs) decreases with higher gas concentration.
