Technology overview
Draw-wire sensors convert linear motion into rotation through a measuring cable extended from the sensor housing. Micro-Epsilon wireSENSOR models offer resistance, voltage, current or digital outputs, depending on configuration. Match measuring length, movement speed, installation and output type to the controller and application.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
No. A family can include potentiometric, voltage, current, incremental-encoder and absolute-encoder versions. Output type forms part of the model identity and controller compatibility.
A spring-loaded drum pays out and retracts the measuring wire. Linear wire movement rotates the drum, and its coupled potentiometer or encoder converts that rotation into a measurement signal. Match both travel and output.
First choose a range covering the required travel, then an output version compatible with the control-system input. For example, analog and digital-encoder P60 versions have different range availability and separate model identities.
Yes, using the documented rating for the selected model and connection. MP is rated IP65 and MPW IP67; connector-equipped K100 ratings require a mated connector. Do not replace connection conditions with a generic family rating.
Check wire extension force, retraction force, maximum wire acceleration and mounting. For example, MPM HG changes both permissible acceleration and wire forces; it is not merely a commercial suffix.
No. Guide the wire back under control rather than letting it snap back freely. Uncontrolled retraction can damage the wire and spring mechanism; follow the model installation instructions.
