Overview
The MK717 parallel-beam load cell is a compact, industrial-grade sensing element built to hold its accuracy when loads are not perfectly centred. Rugged construction and measurement stability under side forces make it well suited to continuous automatic weighing and control equipment operating in busy plants.
Key Features
- High accuracy, industrial-grade durability
- Strong off-centre-load resistance
- Compact and measurement-stable
- High accuracy (≤0.03%F.S) for precise measurement
- Alloy steel elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
- Standard output 1.0mV/V±0.15%, compatible with common indicators
Applications
Commonly specified for batching scales, quantitative packaging scales, belt-conveyor and hopper weighing, and sortation systems.
