LWG 120 PLd draw wire sensor

High-precision length and angle sensor

Draw wire sensor with Hall and MEMS sensors

Maximum safety and precision – the gSENS LWG 120 PLd draw wire sensor is your reliable length and angle sensor for mobile construction machinery and demanding construction projects.

Benefit from state-of-the-art sensor technology with contactless Hall and MEMS sensors for accurate results up to 15 meters in length and angles up to ±180°. The combination of Hall and MEMS sensors (magnetic field and micro-electromechanical measuring system) provides a robust solution for extreme construction environments, while the built-in sensors detect even the smallest movements and inclinations.
