The invention discloses a low-power-consumption gas leakage alarm which comprises an alternating current power source, a power source circuit, a gas sensor, a first potentiometer, a second potentiometer, a fifth diode, a silicon controlled rectifier, a forth capacitor, a relay, a loudspeaker and a fan motor. The gas sensor and the second potentiometer form a voltage divider to detect air. When there is no combustible gas in the air, bulk resistance between a positive pole input end and a negative pole input end of the gas sensor is large, outputs voltages of the second potentiometer are lower than 2.5V, and the gas sensor is in a still state; when the gas content in the air increases, output voltages of the second potentiometer are higher than 2.5V, the gas sensor is connected, the relay is closed, a first normally-open switch of the relay is closed, and an exhaust fan is powered on and operates to exhaust air. According to the low-power consumption gas leakage alarm, starting control sensitivity of circuit alarming can be changed by adjusting resistance of the potentiometers, and the low-power consumption gas leakage alarm has the advantages of being stable in performance, little in power consumption, simple in circuit, and convenient to install and adjust.
