Product Description

The Milesight EM400-TLD ToF Laser Distance Sensor is a unique device designed for small waste bins. Ideal for those looking to optimise waste collections and cleaning schedules, this laser distance sensor uses LPWAN technology to provide accurate fill-level data. Available in either a LoRaWAN or NB-IoT version, you have the flexibility to select the best technology for your chosen application.

Designed for ease of integration into existing systems, the Milesight EM400-TLD laser distance sensor makes an efficient choice for businesses looking to upgrade or enhance their measurement capabilities.

The EM400-TLD ToF Laser Distance Sensor can help you with:

  • Environmental monitoring
  • Inventory management
  • Optimising the cleanliness of your facilities

Engineered for durability, this sensor is built to withstand industrial environments. With an IP67-rated enclosure, it is protected against dust and water. Its robust design ensures reliability and consistent performance even in challenging conditions.

This smart device comes equipped with two pre-set modes: standard mode and bin mode. These are both designed to cater to the common requirements of distance measurement and waste bin monitoring applications.

Powered by Time-of-Flight technology, the Milesight EM400-TLD delivers millimetric accuracy, ensuring no blind spots and precise fill-level tracking for compact spaces.

NB-IoT Version:

Utilising NB-IoT technology, this sensor is the ideal solution for optimising waste collections. Simply insert your cellular NB-IoT SIM card to the sensor to get started.

Recorded data will be transmitted from the sensor by the connected NB-IoT network, which is fulfilled by inserting a compatible SIM card. This data can then be decoded by our IoT middleware platform, Symbius.

LoRaWAN Version:

Recorded data is transmitted over a LoRaWAN® network, helping to secure any privacy concerns. Based on the standard LoRaWAN® protocol, the EM400-TLD connects to a LoRaWAN® gateway and can then be visualised by your preferred dashboard or through Milesight's IoT Cloud.
