Overview
The MK201 is an S-type tension-and-compression load cell that measures force in both directions with high accuracy and simple mounting. Its compact beam design gives a dependable signal for closed-loop force measurement and control, and it is quick to install in repetitive industrial weighing and testing.
Key Features
- Bidirectional tension and compression sensing
- High accuracy, straightforward installation
- High accuracy (≤±0.01%F.S) for precise measurement
- ≤30N: Al-Alloy, ≥50N: Alloy Steel elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
- Standard output 2.0±0.02mV/V, compatible with common indicators
- Compact design for straightforward integration
Applications
Applied to batching, hook, and packaging scales and to material testing machines for force measurement and control where reliable force feedback is needed.
