Thingsee BEAM measures the distance between the sensor and any
solid surface. The sensor sends a laser beam and calculates the
distance from the time it takes for the beam to return back to the
sensor.
Thingsee BEAM can be used to measure the fill rates of, for example,
paper and towel dispensers, trash bins, shelves and even liquid
dispensers with an accessory.
Thingsee BEAM gives extremely accurate distance measurement and
it has an adjustable sensor beam, making the installation flexible and
easy.
Please note that the measured surface needs to be solid, and that
some materials, like glossy surfaces, may interfere with the beam.
Install the sensor above or below the surface you want to measure.
Make sure that the sensor is at least 2 cm from the surface.
The angle between the sensor and the measured surface is
recommended to be 90 º, but it can be adjusted if needed by 6 º to
either side, making the installation flexible.
