Product Overview
The WMSS1000 Wireless Multi-Sonic elevation sensor is a wireless sensor that
eliminates costly sensor cables that are prone to failure or damage. Like the
CMSS1000, it is designed for superior performance and flexibility in grade control
applications.

The sensor is manufactured with six ultrasonic sensors set to an optimized frequency
that results in high precision output signals. The width of the six sensors allows for
implementation of a string line sensing mode.

The sensor has LED panels on two sides that allow the machine operator and
ground crew a visual indication of where the sensor is in relation to the active set
point of the application. An LED panel mounted on one end of the sensor includes a
wireless indicator, battery gauge, and a power switch. A rechargeable internal
battery provides for 16 hours of continuous use.

A reference bail for optimum temperature and wind compensation is included. The
bail is firmly held in place by magnets and designed to break away upon contact
rather than break or bend. The bail can be easily removed and stored in the alternate
position when the sensor is not in use.

The WMSS1000 is IP67 rated and features an innovative quick mount. This quarter-
turn, cam lock mount allows for a one handed install/remove of the sensor that
requires no tools. Imbedded in the quick mount is an RFID tag that allows for the
source addressing of each mount location in the controller application.

The Danfoss WH1000 Wireless Hub provides a gateway to the machine controller by
transmitting and receiving data to and from the sensors. Refer to the WH1000
