MS-1 S-Type Load Cell for Tension and Compression Weighing
UNICELL Sensors MS-1 is an S-type load cell designed for both tension and compression weighing applications. It provides good output symmetry, compact structure, simple installation and a wide range of capacities for industrial weighing systems.
This model is suitable for crane scales, hopper scales, electromechanical scales, customized weighing equipment and force measurement applications where a stable mV/V signal and mechanical alignment are important.
| Tension / Compression | Good Symmetry | Compact S-Type | Easy Installation |
Product Overview
The MS-1 load cell is built for applications that require accurate force measurement in tension or compression. Its S-type mechanical structure makes it practical for suspended weighing, pull-force measurement and compact installation where the load path must remain centered.
| Main Feature | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| S-type load cell structure | Works well in both pull and press force measurement. |
| Good output symmetry | Supports stable weighing behavior across tension and compression use. |
| Compact design | Useful for crane scales, hopper scales and limited installation space. |
| Wide capacity range | Available from light-duty force measurement to heavy-duty industrial weighing. |
Typical Applications
| Electromechanical Scales | Crane Scales | Hopper Scales |
| Special weighing systems | Force measurement equipment | Industrial automation systems |

Installation Notes
- Use the correct threaded accessories for tension or compression applications.
- Keep the force direction aligned with the load cell centerline.
- Avoid side loading, twisting force, impact loading and overload.
- Install the load cell in a clean and mechanically stable structure.
- Protect the cable from moisture, bending damage and mechanical impact.
- Perform calibration after installation.
