The Dragino DDS20-NB is an NB-IoT Ultrasonic liquid level sensor for the Internet of Things solution. It uses a non-contact method to measure the height of liquid in a container without opening it and send the IoT platform via the NB-IoT network.
The DDS20-NB sensor is installed directly below the container to detect the height of the liquid level. The user doesn't need to open a hole in the container to be tested. The non-contact measurement makes the measurement safe, easier, and possible for some strict situations.
DDS20-NB uses ultrasonic sensing technology for distance measurement. DDS20-NB is of high accuracy to measure various liquids such as toxic substances, strong acids, strong alkalis, and various pure liquids in high-temperature and high-pressure airtight containers.
DDS20-NB supports different uplink methods including MQTT, MQTTs, UDP & TCP for different application requirements, and supports uplinks to various IoT Servers.
DDS20-NB supports BLE configure and OTA update which make users easy to use.
DDS20-NB is powered by an 8500mAh Li-SOCI2 battery, it is designed for long-term use for up to several years.
DDS20-NB has an optional built-in SIM card and default IoT server connection version. Which makes it work with a simple configuration.
