Manhole Cover Position Sensor
MCPS-10W
The MCPS-10W monitors manhole cover position and reports lift and flip events over wanwave LPWAN. It helps infrastructure teams identify displaced covers and respond to potential access or safety issues without relying solely on routine site inspections.
Powered by an ER14505 battery with a five-year battery life, the sensor supports long-term monitoring with limited maintenance. Its slim, IP68-rated enclosure measures 125 × 125 × 25 mm and weighs 50 g, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C.
