Description
IoT-Line floor scale KERN BFC 1T-5DS is a networkable floor scale intended for industrial and laboratory weighing tasks. Its weighing plate presents a smooth surface fixed from above, allowing straightforward removal and hygienic cleaning. Four silicone-coated alloy steel load cells are protected against dust and splash water to IP67. The evaluation electronics correspond to the KERN KFC-TM design and deliver the familiar IoT-Line operating concept from manufacturer Kern. Industry 4.0 data exchange is handled through the KERN Universal Port (KUP) on the housing, or in parallel over three interfaces when a KUP Extension Box is used. A built-in real-time clock records weighing results with accurate time information and continues with the correct time after power loss. Delivery includes a table stand with wall mount for the display device plus a protective working cover. The unit is supplied as 1 pc, with net weight 95 kg, gross weight 135 kg, and packaging dimensions 0,36 m × 1,12 m × 1,08 m.
This article is part of Bench, platform & industrial scales, in Balances & scales.

Questions about IoT-Line Floor Scale KERN BFC 1T-5DS
What is this article?
IoT-Line Floor Scale KERN BFC 1T-5DS 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.
