The SL 3015 cable length sensor, part number 5912Z02-000.002, tracks the extension of the hoist rope as it unwinds from the drum. By monitoring this movement, the sensor sends real-time data to the crane control system, which is necessary for calculating the current boom length and operating radius. This information is integrated into the load moment indicator system to determine the safe working load and prevent overloading during lifting operations.
This component is designed for use on the Liebherr LTM1160-2 all-terrain crane. It utilizes an internal drum and a rotary encoder to convert the physical extension of the cable into an electrical signal. Proper calibration of this sensor ensures that the crane computer receives accurate data regarding the position of the load and the configuration of the boom.
Cable length sensors function as a primary input for the crane's safety systems. By continuously measuring the amount of cable deployed, the sensor allows the control system to adjust load charts based on the actual extension. Maintaining an accurate sensor reading is essential for the operational safety of the crane and the correct function of the load moment limitation system.
