Sensor for monitoring the fullness of garbage containers

Two ultrasonic distance sensors

Used to determine the level of container fullness regardless of the location of the MSW sensor (on the wall or on the tank lid)

Built-in accelerometer

The sensor is equipped with a built-in acceleration sensor – an accelerometer to determine the orientation in space of the sensor body.

The orientation is determined by calculating the projections of the gravitational acceleration vector on the three axes of the built-in accelerometer. The position of the axes of the accelerometer relative to the body of the device is known in advance.

Thus, the use of the accelerometer makes it possible to automatically determine the orientation of the sensor inside the container for solid waste, on the wall or lid of the container, and select the correct operating mode.

Integrated temperature sensor

The sensor is equipped with a built-in temperature sensor, which is designed to detect the fact of ignition of the contents of the container, which is recorded when the temperature of the sensor rises to 60 degrees Celsius and above.


In case of fire detection, the sensor immediately initiates an extraordinary communication session with the remote server to transmit information about the fire detection. At the same time, the period between communication sessions is reduced to 5 minutes until the fire is eliminated.
