• Sensor logs 2000 to 4000 readings if the gateway connection is lost (non-volatile flash, persists through power cycling):
  • 10-minute Heartbeats = ~ 22 days
  • 2-hour Heartbeats = ~ 266 days
• Automatic over-the-air updates to sensor firmware (future-proof)

Applications:

• Liquid Level Detection
• Object/Vehicle Detection
• Inventory Status (based on distance measurement)

The ALTA Wireless Ultrasonic Sensor sends a high-frequency sound pulse to measure distance based on a user-configurable time interval or Heartbeat. On every Heartbeat, the sensor produces a high-frequency sound pulse. The sensor uses the speed of sound and the time difference between sending and receiving the sound pulse to determine the distance to an object.

WARNING: Tanks with liquid in them must be vented. Otherwise, condensation will accumulate on the lens and render readings inaccurate.
