Method for monitoring the filling levels of collecting containers for valuable materials

摘要

The object of the invention, to develop a method for monitoring the filling level of collecting containers for valuable materials, which guarantees a cost-effective monitoring of the filling levels and effective, economical emptying of the collecting containers, is achieved in that the filling levels of the collecting containers 1 for valuable materials are registered by means of an electronic filling level sensor 1, 14, to which in each case is assigned a unidirectionally operating short-range radio module. The filling level data of the individual containers 1 are transmitted at a defined time interval to a container 4 which exercises the master function, to which is assigned a radio modem 5. The container 4 which exercises the master function sends the filling level data of the individual containers 1 at a defined time interval, via the radio central unit 7, to a central unit 8 for further processing.
