Earthquake Vibration Logger Kit with Arduino Uno & Sensors: Build a Dual-Hazard Alarm System

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Imagine an earthquake strikes while you're asleep — this kit's vibration sensor instantly triggers a loud alarm and a relay that cuts off your gas line, preventing potential fires from leaks. Add in a carbon monoxide sensor that does the same when CO levels rise, and you have a dual-hazard safety system you can build from scratch. It's a real-world project that teaches critical environmental monitoring and automation relevant to disaster management challenges.

What You'll Build

You'll assemble a working dual-hazard alarm unit that monitors vibration (earthquake) and carbon monoxide (CO) levels. When either sensor detects a threat, the system activates a buzzer and three red LEDs for immediate alert, while a relay module automatically shuts off a connected gas valve — preventing further leakage. Everything is modular on a breadboard, so you can test and iterate before deploying it in a prototype enclosure.

What You'll Learn

• Calibrate and use an SW-420 vibration sensor to detect seismic activity
• Read and interpret MQ-7 CO sensor data to trigger alerts at dangerous thresholds
• Program an Arduino Uno to handle multiple sensor inputs and actuate outputs simultaneously
• Control a 5V relay to safely switch a low-voltage gas valve as a fail-safe mechanism

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

This intermediate kit is ideal for CBSE Class 11-12 students exploring seismology in physics, B.Tech ECE/EEE students building sensors projects, and Smart India Hackathon teams working on disaster management solutions. It's also perfect for ATL Tinkering Labs that need a ready-to-assemble safety alarm with real-world relay integration for gas line control.

Built and Backed by Compoden

Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
