KERN CO 200-Y2 — Miniature Stainless‑Steel Button Load Cell, 200 kg, IP65

A compact KERN CO 200‑Y2 button load cell designed for precise tension and compression measurement in R&D, test benches and industrial weighing applications

• Miniature button load cell in stainless steel
• High precision: combined error 0.5% F.S.
• Rated capacity 200 kg for tension and compression
• IP65 protection for dust and splash resistance

Precise measurement in a space‑saving format

The miniature button design delivers notable benefits where installation space is limited but measurement integrity cannot be compromised. With a combined error of 0.5% F.S. and classification as G5, the transducer ensures repeatable results for both short test runs and routine process checks. The compact format reduces mechanical influence from neighbouring components, which leads to more consistent readings and fewer corrective cycles in production environments. The small mass and form factor also simplify integration into fixtures and test rigs without large structural changes.

Robust construction for harsh workshop conditions

Constructed from stainless steel and meeting IP65 ingress protection, this load cell tolerates dusty environments and occasional splashes, increasing uptime in demanding industrial settings. RoHS compliant materials safeguard environmental and regulatory requirements. The rugged stainless‑steel housing minimises the risk of corrosion and mechanical wear, extending service intervals and lowering the total cost of ownership for calibration labs, manufacturing lines and field test equipment.

Versatile use across testing and weighing applications

Designed for both tension and compression applications, the transducer is suitable for force testing, small‑scale weighing and mounting in force‑measurement fixtures. Typical sectors include research and development, machine engineering, automotive suppliers, medical technology and calibration workshops. The combination of compact size and 200 kg rated capacity allows the sensor to bridge the gap between precision measurement and practical load ranges encountered in test benches and subassembly checks.

Signal characteristics and integration advantages

The rated output of 1.5–2.0 mV/V permits stable connection to amplifiers, indicators and data acquisition systems commonly used in metrology. The sensor’s electrical characteristics support straightforward calibration and long‑term drift monitoring, enabling predictable measurement behaviour after installation. The G5 designation and measurable output simplify verification against reference standards, so integration into existing measurement chains is efficient and traceable.
