Overview
The MK126 is a keyhole-style spoke load cell built on a low-section, holed elastic element that works in shear. Its compact body throws off side and off-centre forces, giving excellent linearity and high accuracy in both tension and compression, so it suits force measurement where mounting space is at a premium.
Key Features
- Shear-stress spoke design with low mounting section
- Strong resistance to off-centre and side loads
- Measures tension as well as compression
- Excellent linearity and accuracy in a compact body
- High accuracy (±0.1%F.S) for precise measurement
- Alloy steel elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
Applications
Tension and compression force measurement in confined spaces, such as compact test fixtures and space-limited load-monitoring installations.
