Would love some advice and input from this community. I just started a new job and they have asked me to develop a sensing product that can tell how full the pit is and when it needs to be emptied, instead of just sending a truck out to clean it every month and cleaning a 1/4 full pit. I think it's a cost savings measure.
Do you all use something like this? Does it exist already?
I'm assuming a carwash pit is not like a septic system in that it isn't full of water all the time, it is just solids?
Any reason a simple time of flight distance sensor wouldn't work well to check the depth?
Are there any gotcha's I need to look out for in designing such a thing?
