Decentlab Ultrasonic Sensor for Distance & Level DL-MBX-001 LoRaWAN®
Ultrasonic Sensor for Distance & Level DL-MBX-001 LoRaWAN®
The Decentlab ultrasonic sensor DL-MBX-001 is suitable for outdoor use and enables remote monitoring of water levels in open waters, tank levels, groundwater levels and various applications.
It measures the distance between the sensor head and the target. The measuring principle is based on ultrasonic waves that are emitted by the sensor and reflected by nearby objects. Using the travel time of the sound waves and the speed of sound, the sensor calculates the distance travelled and thus the distance to the object.
The data is transmitted to the corresponding backend via LoRaWAN®. The transmission interval can be individually configured via downlink OTA.
The weatherproof and robust housing in combination with the long battery life allows maintenance-free real-time monitoring for several years.
