Overview
The MK1101 is a bridge-type load cell using a steel-ball, self-aligning mounting head that automatically recentres and compensates for off-centre loads. Based on a double-shear and bending-beam elastic element with a Wheatstone-bridge strain-gauge arrangement, it delivers high accuracy and reliability with excellent long-term stability, good interchangeability and simple installation, while its moisture-sealed body withstands harsh outdoor service.
Key Features
- High accuracy (0.02%F.S) for precise measurement
- Alloy steel elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
- Sealed to IP67 for reliable operation in harsh environments
- Standard output 2.0mV/V, compatible with common indicators
- Compact design for straightforward integration
Applications
Mainly used in electronic truck scales, rail and axle-load scales and weighbridge systems, and in hopper, storage, batching and tank scales for industrial process control.
