Length and angle transmitter for Terex

The length and angle transmitter is an electronic sensor used to monitor the boom configuration of a crane. It continuously tracks the extended length and the inclination angle of the boom relative to the horizontal plane. These measurements are sent directly to the load moment indicator system, which uses the data to calculate the safe lifting capacity based on the current boom geometry. By providing real-time feedback on the position of the boom, the transmitter allows the crane control system to maintain safe operation within defined load limits.

This component is designed for use on Terex cranes. It is compatible with various telescopic and lattice boom configurations where precise tracking of boom movement is required during lifting operations. The part number for this transmitter is 00044712.

In heavy machinery, length and angle transmitters are used to provide the input data necessary for automated safety systems. These sensors typically utilize internal mechanisms to track physical displacement and tilt, converting mechanical movement into electrical signals that the crane computer processes. Accurate data from these sensors ensures that the load moment indicator can correctly interpret the crane's stability and prevent operation outside of safe working parameters.
