Overview
The MK205 is a square S-type load cell that takes tension and compression equally in a compact body. It provides high overall accuracy and good long-term stability with simple bidirectional mounting, so one cell design can serve lifting, batching and upgrade weighing duties.
Key Features
- Bidirectional tension and compression loading
- Compact square S-beam construction
- High accuracy, good long-term stability
- Simple two-way installation
- High accuracy (±0.02%F.S) for precise measurement
- Alloy steel (Ni-Plated) elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
Applications
Crane and hook scales, batching and weighing control, and electromechanical conversion of mechanical scales.
