Ultrasonic Sensors for WellSenseOS

How ultrasonic level sensing integrates with the WellSenseOS edge agent and cloud platform.

Product role

Ultrasonic sensors measure distance to the water surface. The Raspberry Pi agent converts that into depth, volume, and percent when tank geometry is configured in WellSenseOS.

Typical class of sensor

Deployments commonly use HC-SR04-class modules (and waterproof variants where needed). Confirm voltage levels, trigger/echo wiring, and whether level shifting is required for your Pi GPIO.

From distance to dashboard

Distance readings land in WellSenseOS as time-series data for tanks and wells that fit ultrasonic sensing.
