Overview
The ZhongKeMiDian miniature S-type load cell measures tension and compression in a compact stainless-steel body for weighing, force testing and automation fixtures. Nine sensor capacities from 1 to 100 kg share a 25 × 13 × 30 mm form factor and two M6 load connections. Choose a sensor capacity for your measurement range, or select the separately sold analog transmitter when building a compatible signal-conditioning setup.
Features
- S-beam sensing structure: a defined axial load path supports tension and compression measurement with symmetrical output.
- Compact stainless-steel construction: 17-4PH stainless-steel construction combines strength, toughness and long-term stability.
- Nine sensor capacities: 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, 30, 50 and 100 kg.
- Threaded mounting: two M6 connections fit compact test and weighing fixtures.
- Signal protection: a sealed cable entry and double-shielded signal cable support installation in measurement equipment.

FS means full scale. Capacity describes the measured load, not the sensor's physical weight. Sensor specifications apply to the sensor selections; the analog transmitter is a separate accessory.
Configuration Guide
Selecting a capacity supplies one sensor with that rated load range. The Analog transmitter only option supplies one signal-conditioning accessory without a sensor. Match the transmitter input to the bridge sensitivity and excitation requirements, and check its output format against the receiving instrument before connection.
Applications
- Weighing scales and hoppers: measure axial load in suitably mounted weighing assemblies.
- Batching and mixing systems: provide load feedback for material handling and process measurement, within the selected capacity.
- 3C product testing: build compact push/pull force fixtures around the small body and M6 connections.
- Assist mechanisms and automation: monitor tensile or compressive loads where fixture space is limited.
Dimensions, Wiring and Installation
The drawing identifies 25 mm overall width, 13 mm depth, 30 mm height, a 15 mm central section, a 10 mm lower feature and two M6 threaded connections. Align loading with the intended measurement axis, use compatible mounting hardware and avoid unwanted side loads.
| Wiring configuration | Connections |
|---|---|
| Sensor cable A | Red: excitation +; green: excitation −; yellow: signal +; white: signal −. |
| Sensor cable B | Red: excitation +; black: excitation −; green: signal +; white: signal −. |
| Transmitter | Red: power; green: common; yellow: signal. |
The two sensor color schemes are alternatives. Identify the actual cable configuration before applying power; do not interchange colors between the schemes. Zero and calibrate the complete installation, route the cable with strain relief, and match excitation, pinout and signal conditioning to the selected components. A sealed entry does not establish an immersion rating.
What's Included
- Sensor capacity options: 1 × miniature S-type load cell in the selected capacity, with attached cable.
- Analog transmitter only: 1 × analog transmitter; sensor not included.
Displays, digital transmitters, amplifiers, test fixtures and mounting hardware are not included with sensor-only selections. Accessory illustrations show signal-conditioning possibilities; only the selected item is supplied.
