Air Quality and Gas Sensors:
MQ135 Air Quality Sensor
Reads values from an air quality sensor connected to the analog input pin 0. The value read from the sensor is proportional to the air quality measured by the sensor. The value read is printed to the serial monitor.
Here we show the pin-out and a possible wiring approach for this sensor. Connect the "B" terminal to Analog input 0.
Here is a quick software sketch to test it:
