Distance & Tilt Measuring Wireless Sensors in NB-IoT and LoRaWAN
Welcome to our blog post about introducing the Milesight EM400 Series - LoRaWAN Level/Distance Measuring Sensors. This series includes three powerful products: the EM400-TLD ToF Laser Distance Sensor, the EM400-MUD Multifunctional Ultrasonic Distance and Level Sensor, and the EM400-UDL Ultrasonic Distance and Level Sensor. Each of these devices is designed to measure different levels and distances with incredible accuracy.
In addition, they feature durable IP67 rated enclosures, long battery life, built-in 3-axis accelerometer, as well as built-in NTC thermistors. Read on to learn more about the features and capabilities of each sensor in this series.
The EM400 series of distance and level measuring sensors offers cutting-edge technology and reliability. With three different models available, there is something to suit a wide range of needs.
- EM400-TLD ToF Laser Distance Sensor is specifically designed for smaller applications such as mini trash bins. Not only is it able to measure the distance to objects, it also has ‘almost zero’ blind spots and a consistent performance.
- EM400-MUD Multifunctional Ultrasonic Distance and Level Sensor provides a more tailored fit for large trash bins, with its built-in three Pre-set Modes designed to relieve the user of having to set up any configuration. In addition, it measures tilt and burning status, making it an invaluable tool for ensuring efficient waste management.
- EM400-UDL the Ultrasonic Distance and Level Sensor offers three different versions for diverse applications like a boiler expansion tank fill level, barn fill level and flood monitoring.The series offers features in all models including a battery life of over 10 years, IP67 rating enclosure for waterproof and dustproof protection, in-built 3-axis accelerometer and thermistors.
In closing, the Milesight EM400 Series is the perfect choice for many different applications including waste management, parking solutions, and detecting levels and distances. These innovative devices benefit from features such as IP67 waterproof and dustproof ratings, low maintenance costs, and long battery life. With the three Pre-set Modes of the EM400-MUD, users are able to easily use this product to their benefit. With the Milesight EM400 Series, customers can be assured of a reliable and powerful estimation of distance and level measurement.
For smaller size projects, which the number of edge device is too few to justify a LoRaWAN gateway, the NB-IoT comes handy as an alternative. Data transmission under NB-IoT protocol is based on existing cellular stations, which is highly reliable. In the industrial setting, the accuracy and completeness of distance data are important as data loss or error could cause mistakes in subsequent operations and decision-making. Therefore, by utilizing the steadfast and secure connection provided by cellular stations, asset managers can confidently rely on the data reported to take responsive actions and make informed decisions accordingly.
