BEI Sensors CD115-3000-0-3000-i420-l15-l4-OP-IP67 draw wire sensor, 3000mm, 4-20mA, 4pin A-coded male M12 connector *new*

Draw wire sensor is convenient distance measurement device. Operation principle is simple. Mount the draw wire sensor and hook up the free end of it's wire to something that moves away from it. A potentiometer is spun upon pulling out the wire and this change of resistance is then converted to the output signal.

Draw wire sensor technical details:

• Signal type:
  • 4-20mA (output can be "zeroed out" by rotating the enclosure with connector)
• Max measuring distance:
  • 3000mm
• Wire material:
  • 0,6mm diameter twisted multistrand stainless steel wire
• Inner construction:
  • Built around 10 turn precision potentiometer
• IP rating:
  • IP67
• Electrical connection:
  • 4pin A-coded male M12 connector

Note that these kind of a sensors are easy to kill by cutting the extended wire! So avoid cutting the wire or letting the free end freely snapping into the sensor. Nevertheless if you manage to do so, we do have spare potentiometer available and we can also carry out the repair for you.
