Length and angle transmitter for Terex

The length and angle transmitter, part number 00126012, functions as an electro-mechanical sensor within the safety and control systems of Terex cranes. It simultaneously measures the extension length of the boom and its inclination angle relative to the horizontal plane. These measurements are transmitted to the crane computer to calculate the safe operating load and monitor working limits, which prevents overloading or instability during operation.

This component is engineered for use in Terex cranes and serves as a critical element of the Load Moment Indicator or Rated Capacity Indicator system. Proper calibration ensures that the operator receives accurate, real-time information regarding lifting capacity in various boom configurations.

In crane systems, length and angle transmitters are essential for providing the feedback loop required for automated safety monitoring. By continuously tracking the geometry of the boom, these sensors allow the control system to enforce operational envelopes and prevent the crane from exceeding its rated capacity based on the current radius and boom length.
