Description
Hanging scale KERN HCN 200K500IP is a robust, compact hanging scale with high protection against dust and splash water, specified for a maximum load of 200 kg at a resolution of 0,5 kg. The stainless-steel housing with IP65 protection is well suited to fast checkweighing in incoming and outgoing goods and to weight determination of fish, game, fruit, bicycle parts, luggage and comparable items. With the TÜV test mark it fulfils EN 13155 (loose load lifting attachments / fracture safety) and EN 61010-1 (electrical safety). Hold freezes the reading automatically at standstill or manually by the hold key; peak-hold captures the maximum load. Internal measuring frequency is 5 Hz. A stainless-steel carabiner with safety lock and a stainless-steel hook are included as standard. Compact construction and a net weight of 0,50 kg favour mobile deployment. This model from manufacturer Kern is supplied as a single unit for industrial, laboratory and outdoor weighing tasks that demand dust and splash protection together with higher capacity.

Questions about Hanging Scale KERN HCN 200K500IP
What is this article?
Hanging Scale KERN HCN 200K500IP is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Bench, platform & industrial scales, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
A bench, platform or industrial scale takes kilograms to tonnes, with a platform instead of a small pan. Resolution is coarser. The load cell and the platform size are the specification. It is the scale for a drum or a packed goods check, not for a milligram of standard.
A balance compares a mass with a standard. An analytical balance reads to 0.1 mg or finer and needs a draft shield and a stable bench. A precision balance is coarser and faster. A platform scale takes a heavier load. The reading is only as good as the calibration chain back to the kilogram, which is why test weights and a certificate exist. A moisture analyser is a balance with a heater: it records the loss of mass as water leaves. The unit of mass is kept by the BIPM, compared across Europe by EURAMET, and accredited by BELAC. NIST publishes the same measurement foundations.
