Overview
Built around a parallel-beam elastic element, the MK718 load cell delivers industrial durability with high accuracy and reliable rejection of off-centre loads. Its small, stable design suits precise weighing tasks in tight, automated installations, and consistent output helps maintain quality control on busy production lines.
Key Features
- Rejects off-centre loads for stable readings
- Compact, durable parallel-beam body
- Consistent output for quality control
- High accuracy (≤0.03%F.S) for precise measurement
- Aluminum alloy elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
- Sealed to – for reliable operation in harsh environments
Applications
Applied to batching scales, quantitative packaging systems, belt and hopper scales, and automated sortation equipment.
