The new wireSENSOR MK-88 extends the Micro-Epsilon portfolio of ultra compact draw wire sensors. As a low cost alternative to the aluminium-based standard industrial range, the MK series excels in its compact design, its glass fibre reinforced plastic construction and its low price for large quantities. In particular it offers an outstanding balance of sensor size and measuring range. Wire lengths of 2,3 m, 3,5 m or 5 m open the door to applications that used to be exclusive to larger and more expensive sensors. Sensors with potentiometer-based interfaces are available (4…20 mA, 0-10 V, 0-1 k). For OEM projects, all common incremental and absolute digital interfaces or fieldbuses may be used.
