Device advantages

1. Low Prices: Measure fill levels without putting a strain on the budget

2. Universal Usage: It’s usable even in the deepest basement, thanks to NB-LoT module;

3. Metering: it’s characterized by the maximum precision thanks to a infra-based method;

4. Easy to install: For optimal transmission, the tracker should be installed outside an object with a clear view to the sky. The view must not be obstructed by metal or carbon fiber surfaces. Mounting in a closed metal enclosure can completely block radio signals, and transmitting and receiving them is no longer possible.

5. Inside Encapsulated electronics for robust applications with a battery service life of five years on average

HOUSING MATERIAL

There are two types of Level Meter equipped with different time-of-flight (TOF) sensors. The types are identified by the first serial number letter (SN prefix):

The Level Meter must be installed in a location free from significant mechanical stresses, such as shocks, impacts, vibrations, bending, or torsional forces.

To ensure optimal cellular transmission, mount the device externally with a clear line of sight. Avoid blocking the view with metal or carbon fiber surfaces, as these can interfere with signals. Installation inside a closed metal container may fully block transmission and reception.

Before first use, low-cost trackers must be awakened from sleep mode to start measurements and send transmissions. Follow these steps:

1. Remove the cover from the lens

2. Shake the device several times in the ToF direction.

3. Check the LED on the back of the device.

• If Step 2 was successfully completed, the LED on the back should light up (mode "Always On").

• If the LED does not light up, repeat Step 2.

1. Verify whether the registration was successful:

• Observe the LED:

+ The LED will blink rapidly for 3 seconds and then turn off, indicating that the device has been successfully activated.

+ This process can take up to 3 minutes. After successful activation, the LED will not light up even if Step 2 is repeated.

• Observe the LED:

+ If the LED turns off without blinking, the activation procedure has failed.

+ Possible causes:

a. An invalid network.

b. An issue with Deutsche Telekom's gIoT Cloud platform.

The level meter regularly reports the current fill level of the container.

• Fill level thresholds are set according to specific requirements.

• When a threshold is reached, an alarm is triggered to ensure the container is replaced or emptied as quickly as possible.

Level Meter - On-demand collection

Thanks to the process of optimization, the collectionis not performed at set time intervals, but the Leve Meter automatically determines the fill level

• Optimization of container runs;

• Reduction of manual administrative overhead;

• Prevention of collections too early or too late.

Level Meter Advantages of IoT level measurement

Sustainable

• Process optimizations mean substantial reduction of CO2 emissions

Secure

• Connection with the company’s NB-IoT network IoT cloud services from the certified Cloud

Efficient

• Low costs and fixed price make for calculable costs

• No investment required in own wireless infrastructure

• Process optimizations mean fuel and manpower savings

Charging the battery

The battery cannot be charged: the device includes two lithium batteries belonging to one battery package.

Improperly handling the battery can cause a fire. Do not damage or cut the device.

Use of Level Meter

Use the device only if it can be ensured that no personal injury or property damage can occur due to the installation type.

Recycling the Level Meter

As the manufacturer, Virtue Intelligence GmbH is responsible for the collection, pre-treatment, and proper disposal of the Level Meter.

The WEEE registration number for the Level-Meter is DE16378411. Step by step disposal process:

1. An agent will contact you.

2. The electrical waste equipment will be taken to the agreed location.

3. The manufacturer takes care of the rest.
