Description:

Arduino based LPG Leakage detector with SMS indication using GSM modem project
detects the LPG gas leakage. If the LPG gas level crosses threshold level then it sends SMS
to the user using the GSM modem. Also the LPG detector system turns on the buzzer to
indicate the person nearby to the system. And at the same time Relay is turned on. Arduino
has inbuilt Analog to Digital converter so we need not to connect any external ADC IC. We
have connected LPG sensor directly to the analog input pins of the Arduino Uno board.

This project proves really helpful in cases when there is nobody in the house which has LPG
gas cylinder in it. Due to some negligence there might be LPG gas leakage which can lead to
measure accidents. GSM based Arduino LPG detector can avoid such situations by sending
an alert sms to the owner and by turning on Buzzer/Siren at the same time.

Description in detail:

As we know that various Arduino Based Projects For Engineering Students helps to avoid
various accidents. This project is one of them. And following are the important modules in
this project:

1. Arduino: Then important and the most useful part of the system is Arduino Uno. All the
output devices are controlled by Arduino. At the same time it reads and manipulates the input
from sensor. LCD Display receives various messages from Arduino.

2. LPG Sensor: This sensor detects the LPG gas molecules in the air. And gives respective
voltage output to the Arduino.

3. GSM Modem: User receives SMS indication with the help of GSM modem connected to
the Arduino Uno board.

4. LCD Display: This is used to show various informative messages to the user like sending
sms, sms sent.

5. Relay: We have used a 12 volt relay in this system. Arduino can not turn on a 12 volt relay
so we have used a relay driver circuit to turn on this relay. We can control any AC or DC
device with the help of this Relay.

6. Buzzer: A piezoelectric buzzer is connected to the system using a transistor circuit. This
buzzer gives warning signal to the user.

Applications of the Arduino based LPG detector project:

1. We can use this project in our home. We can also use this project in industries and offices
and colleges where LPG gas cylinder is used in the canteen.

2. We can use this project in hotels and restaurants.

Advantages of the project:

1. Arduino uno based LPG detector system gives remote indication to the user about the LPG
leakage with the help of SMS indication.

Future Development for the project:

1. We can add GPS modem to this system.
