Overview
The MK513 is a cantilever beam load cell with a low mounting height, high overall accuracy and a self-stabilising structure noted for long-term stability. Its stainless-steel body with a nickel-plated surface stands up to busy plant environments, making it a dependable choice for continuous industrial weighing duty.
Key Features
- High accuracy (±0.03%F.S) for precise measurement
- Aluminum alloy elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
- Sealed to IP67 for reliable operation in harsh environments
- Standard output 2.0 ± 0.5%mV/V, compatible with common indicators
- Compact design for straightforward integration
Applications
Widely used on batching scales, hopper scales, packaging scales, batching machines, platform scales and concrete mixing plants.
