Automatic level measurement for containers
The N112-US module, designed in 2016 by Heol Design, allows a daily report of the level of a container of waste, liquids, or used clothing.
Waste collection is then optimized.
The built-in ultrasonic sensor measures the filling level of the container accurately, and transmits this value via E-mail, SMS or on a data server (in UDP).
The measurement interval is programmable from 2 minutes to 24 hours.
A motion detection (moving the container) or a door opening also triggers the awakening of the module and the sending of an alarm.
The transmitted data are as follows:
- measurement of the filling level of the container from 0 to 100%
- accurate GPS position within 3 meters
- time and date
- ambient temperature
- container door opening alarm
- motion detection alarm
- battery level
The built-in Lithium battery allows a range of 6 months to 1 year (depending on the period of awakening and the ambient temperature). It is easily interchangeable, since it is fixed by a strong magnet on the container wall.
The module itself can be fixed by screws or a permanent magnet.The N105 tracker operates a GSM/GPRS modem, so a SIM card is necessary to
enable wireless communications.
First of all the PIN code has to be disabled before insertion (you can use a
mobile phone to disable it).
After this, you have to :
-open the cover (remove the 4 screws),
-insert the nano-SIM card as shown on the pictures.
-replace cover and screws.
