Description
Bench scale KERN FPB 15K-3 is a robust table-top weighing instrument built for demanding laboratory and industrial surroundings. Dust and splash-water protection to IP68/IP69K makes the unit highly durable and well suited to harsh ambient conditions. The stainless-steel weighing plate is easy and hygienic to clean, supporting routine use where cleanliness matters. Battery and mains adapter are included so the scale can run continuously, including during charging; compact, lightweight construction further enables deployment at several workplaces. Innovative tolerance weighing changes the display colour according to the result—too light, within tolerance or too heavy—to assist portioning, dosing and sorting. An integrated piece-counting function with storable piece weight expands everyday utility, while a sleep function automatically switches the instrument into energy-saving mode after an adjustable idle period. This bench scale from manufacturer Kern is supplied as one complete unit for multi-site weighing tasks that require rugged protection, hygienic surfaces and clear visual feedback during checkweighing and counting workflows.
This article is part of Bench, platform & industrial scales, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Bench Scale KERN FPB 15K-3
What is this article?
Bench Scale KERN FPB 15K-3 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.
