The Tuya Smart Zigbee Natural Gas Sensor is a high-sensitivity device designed for detecting natural gas (e.g., methane) or LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) leaks, particularly in kitchens or areas where gas appliances are used. Below is a detailed breakdown of its features, performance, and suitability for fire safety applications.

Key Features

1. High Sensitivity Detection
   • Gas Types: Detects natural gas (methane) and LPG (propane/butane).
   • Sensitivity: Capable of detecting low concentrations of gas (typically 50–100 ppm), ensuring early leak detection.
2. Zigbee Connectivity
   • Wireless Protocol: Uses Zigbee for low-power, reliable communication with smart home hubs (e.g., Tuya, Amazon Alexa, Google Home).
   • Range: Operates within a typical Zigbee network range (up to 100 meters in open space).
3. Real-Time Alerts
   • Push Notifications: Sends alerts to your smartphone via the Tuya app when gas leaks are detected.
   • Audible/Visual Alarms: Built-in siren and LED indicators for local alerts.
4. Easy Installation
   • Mounting: Can be wall-mounted or placed on a flat surface near gas appliances.
   • Power Source: Battery-powered (usually CR123A or AA batteries) for flexibility.
5. Compatibility
   • Smart Home Integration: Works with Tuya’s ecosystem and third-party platforms (e.g., Alexa, Google Assistant) for seamless automation.
