gSENS LWG 120 draw wire sensor at a glance
The length and angle sensor uses the CANopen interface for IT- communication and as an output signal. Thanks to its robust housing and high protection classes, the draw wire sensor is ideal for demanding off-highway applications such as mobile cranes, telehandlers, and application-specific crane booms – the sensor technology used ensures maximum operational reliability.
Also worth noting: the draw wire sensor performs impressively in various environmental tests in which the device is exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations: whether low or high temperatures, thermal shock tests or temperature and humidity cycle tests – the gSENS LG/LWG 120 length/angle sensor withstands extreme conditions without compromise and delivers reliable measurements across the entire range of applications. With three length variants up to 15 meters, enable adaptation to different machine types and boom configurations, all with a uniform sensor concept.
