MacRay-LToF-Gen1
Product Overview
MacRay-LToF Gen1 is an industrial-grade Time-of-Flight (ToF) LoRaWAN® distance sensor designed for high-precision level measurement in demanding environments. It utilizes laser-based ToF technology to deliver accurate non-contact distance measurements, ideal for tank monitoring, bin fill-level detection, solid waste management, and smart infrastructure.
Built with a rugged IP67-rated enclosure and high-performance optics, MacRay-LToF supports long-range, high-accuracy sensing up to 6 meters. With LoRaWAN® Class A & C communication, BLE for configuration, and Macnman Beam protocol for P2P control, it’s engineered for low-power, reliable operation. Configuration and diagnostics are made seamless with the Maya mobile app via Bluetooth.
Configuration is simple and wireless using the Macnman Maya App over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). Users can quickly adjust thresholds, intervals, and review device data from their mobile phone—no technical expertise required.
