Wirtgen 161455 Tracer Pull Wire Sensor for W1900, W2000, W2100
Product Summary
This is the tracer pull wire sensor (part number 161455) used for milling depth control on Wirtgen cold milling machines. It measures the linear displacement of the machine’s depth adjustment mechanism and sends a signal to the levelling system, helping maintain accurate cutting depth. We offer this sensor in three conditions: genuine OEM, high‑quality aftermarket, and used (original take‑off). Fitment must be verified using your machine model and existing part number. Contact us with your machine details for a compatibility check and a tailored quotation.

Product FunctionProduct Function
The pull wire sensor (often referred to as a depth sensor or string potentiometer) is a key component of the machine’s automatic levelling system. It consists of a spring‑loaded cable wound around a precision drum; as the machine’s height‑adjusting element moves, the cable extends or retracts, and the sensor converts this linear motion into an electrical signal. The control unit uses this signal to maintain the desired milling depth, ensuring a smooth, even surface finish. A faulty or erratic sensor can cause depth inaccuracies, uneven cuts, and unnecessary material waste. Regular inspection and replacement are essential for precision milling operations.
