A LOOK INSIDE – WITHOUT OPENING THE LID
FILL-LEVEL SENSOR
Our fill‑level sensor technology provides precise, up‑to‑date data on the current container status — updated daily and transmitted directly to the eGate Cockpit. This allows you to plan collections based on actual demand, avoid unnecessary trips, and maintain full visibility of your entire fleet at all times.
The sensor can be used as an add‑on to access control or an intake drum, or as a standalone smart monitoring solution.
REAL-TIME TRANSMISSION
A fill‑level sensor with real‑time data transmission forms the foundation for efficient and predictive waste‑collection operations. It continuously measures the current fill level of your containers and sends all values to your systems or directly to the eGate Cockpit.
This provides transparency on container utilization and usage, enabling optimized planning and efficient operations.
UNIVERSAL COMPATIBILITY
Compatible with nearly all container types and materials.
DURABLE & ROBUST
Built for harsh environments: water‑jet resistant, dust‑tight, and low‑maintenance.
HIGH ACCURACY
Reliably detects fill levels and unusual changes.
SEAMLESSLY CONNECTED
Data transmission to the egate cockpit or via API to existing systems.
CONTAINER TRANSPARENCY FOR EFFICIENT OPERATIONS
Benefits of our fill‑level sensor
Near Real‑Time Monitoring: Fill levels, changes, and usage dynamics are captured in near real time.
Transmission intervals can be adjusted flexibly – from very frequent to energy‑efficient, depending on the use case.
Intelligent Route Planning: Reliable sensor data enables optimal collection planning: fewer empty runs, better fleet utilization, and reduced operating costs.
Built‑In Early‑Warning System: Automatic notifications for critical fill levels, blockages, anomalies, or unusual patterns – ideal for preventing overflows before they occur.
Flexible Use Across All Container Types and Waste Fractions: Whether residual waste, paper, glass, organic waste, or recyclables, the sensor supports all fractions and works with different measurement principles.
Autonomous Operation with Onboard Battery: Fully battery‑powered and designed for very long runtimes – perfect for remote locations without access to electricity.
Easy Integration and Fast Installation: Thanks to universal mounting brackets, the sensor can be installed within minutes. Open interfaces ensure smooth integration into the egate cockpit or external systems.
Optimized for Industrial Use: With IP67 protection (dust‑tight and jet‑water resistant), a rugged design, and fully maintenance‑free operation, the sensor delivers reliable performance even in extreme conditions.

COMPACT, POWERFUL, VERSATILE
Perfect technology for every challenge
Our products are flexible, scalable, and compatible with a wide range of waste‑management systems:
from classic four‑wheel and above‑ground containers to stationary and semi‑underground systems, as well as fully underground containers and custom housings/ enclosures.
Reliable access control
Our access‑control system ensures that only authorized individuals can use the container. With role‑based permissions and individual identification, every disposal action is clearly recorded and assigned to a specific person or organization.
Precise volume control
Our volume control reliably records the actual fill level and creates transparency regarding the use of your containers.
DATA MANAGEMENT
All data in one place — access events, fill levels, and system activity
With the egate Cockpit or via API, you maintain full visibility and control, allowing you to manage your systems efficiently and in real time.
egate Cockpit
Consolidates all relevant data in one central, intuitive platform.
egate User App
Enables users to manage authorizations, notifications, and disposal actions easily and directly on site.
egate Service App
Allows precise, mobile management of installations, maintenance, and support tasks.
Frequently asked
questions about
the fill-level sensor
The sensor measures the fill level contactlessly using either ultrasonic or Time‑of‑Flight (ToF) technology, depending on which container type, material, and depth need to be detected. This ensures precise and reliable measurement, even in demanding environments.
Yes, the sensor can be installed easily and quickly as a retrofit. It is compatible with all container types and can be seamlessly combined with access‑control or volume‑control (intake drum) systems.
Data is transmitted via a cellular connection using a SIM card.
This provides maximum coverage, high reliability, and flexible deployment – regardless of location.
Yes. The sensor can be used independently – ideal for simple applications where only fill‑level data is required.
The data still appears conveniently in the egate cockpit, just like information from access‑control and intake‑drum systems.
