  4. S251 Miniature Platform Load Cell

The S251 Load Cell is a low profile, single point sensor that offers high accuracy for force measurements. These miniature load cells are only 0.71″ high, with a 3,000 Ω thin film strain gage bridge for extremely low power consumption. Capacities range from 200 g to 10 kg-force, full scale. The S251 and the S252 are very similar load cells but the S251 is designed with holes on one of its ends.
