SENSOR SERIES / DWP-

Choose by stroke.
Then choose the signal.

Five product families cover cable displacement measurement from compact string pots to engineered long-range transducers.

Family ranges are selection envelopes. Output availability, linearity, cable construction, drawings and delivery are confirmed for the quoted configuration.

DWP-ENC01 ↗

Draw-Wire Encoders

Match cable travel to your PLC: incremental ABZ pulses or an absolute position value over an agreed industrial interface.

Stroke envelope
100–15,000 mm
Output
ABZ HTL / TTL · RS485 · CANopen · SSI

DWP-POS02 ↗

4–20 mA & 0–10 V Draw-Wire Position Sensors

Convert hydraulic cylinder stroke or machine travel into a scaled analog signal for a PLC or data acquisition system.

Stroke envelope
200–10,000 mm
Output
4–20 mA · 0–5 V · 0–10 V

DWP-SP03 ↗

Compact String Potentiometers & Wire Pots

Specify a compact cable potentiometer for suspension travel, pedal movement and short-stroke test fixtures.

Stroke envelope
50–1,270 mm
Output
5 kΩ / 10 kΩ divider · analog transmitter options

DWP-LNG04 ↗

Long-Range Draw-Wire Transducers

Review 15 m to 100 m cable displacement projects with a defined drum geometry, tension and installation route. For 10 m travel, review DWP-POS or DWP-ENC.

Stroke envelope
15,000–100,000 mm
Output

DWP-KIT05 ↗

Draw-Wire Sensors with Digital Display

Specify a string potentiometer with digital display, matched input and a pre-scaled mm or inch indication for a machine retrofit.

Stroke envelope
100–50,000 mm
Output
Matched analog or ABZ readout input
