Technical specifications

Overview

The GSH-S draw wire sensor is a compact and robust device designed for linear position measurement in mobile machines and off-highway equipment. Based on non-contact Hall-effect technology, it ensures stable measurement performance, high repeatability and long-term reliability without wear of the sensing element.

The sensor provides linear position measurement from 1.8 to 8.3 m and can be easily integrated even in space-constrained installations. Typical applications include stabilizers, telescopic booms and lifting systems.

Engineered for harsh operating environments, the GSH-S withstands shock, vibration and demanding EMC conditions typical of off-highway equipment. It is available with analog and digital outputs, including CANopen and CANopen Safety, enabling flexible integration into modern control systems.

The GSH-S features architectures certified for functional safety up to SIL2 (EN IEC 62061, IEC/EN 61508) and Performance Level d – PL d (EN ISO 13849-1 Category 2), supporting safety-related applications in mobile machinery.
