## Description

The Octopus Flame Sensor is a simple infrared-based module that detects the presence of a flame or fire source. Part of the Octopus Electronic Bricks system, it connects directly to Arduino and compatible boards with a standard 3-pin interface — just plug and play, no breadboard required. The module outputs a digital high/low signal when a flame is detected, with an on-board potentiometer to adjust the detection sensitivity. Fast response and high sensitivity make it suitable for fire detection alarms, firefighting robots, and safety monitoring projects. Key Features Infrared Flame Detection – Detects fire and flame sources via IR probe Adjustable Sensitivity – On-board potentiometer for tuning detection threshold Digital Output – High/low signal for easy microcontroller integration Plug-and-Play – 3-pin Octopus brick connector (Signal, VCC, GND) Fast Response – High sensitivity with stable, long-life operation Specifications Operating Voltage – 5V Output Type – Digital switching (0/1) Interface – 3-pin analogue (Signal, VCC, GND) Sensor Type – Infrared receiver (IR probe) Sensitivity – Adjustable via on-board potentiometer Warning: The IR sensor operates from −25°C to +85°C. Maintain a safe distance between the probe and the flame source to avoid damage. Ideal For Fire detection and alarm systems Firefighting robots Safety monitoring projects Arduino and maker projects Package Contents 1× Octopus Flame Sensor Module
