Description
Counting scale KERN CIB 3K-4 is a robust digital counting instrument with 30.000-point counting resolution for precise piece counting in inventory and process control. Three displays simultaneously show weight, reference weight and total piece count, supporting fast stocktaking, portioning, dosing and sorting. Optical checkweighing changes display colour with the count result (too low / OK / too high), while an acoustic signal varies frequency for the same feedback—practical for workshops for people with disabilities, especially loud or quiet surroundings, and workplaces with frequently changing operators. Automatic reference optimisation improves the average part weight step by step. Keypad programming sets the desired reference piece quantity or a known reference weight; counting sum memory adds identical parts by total pieces and total weight. PRE-TARE enables manual deduction of a known container weight for fill-quantity checks. Twenty freely assignable direct keys and storage for 50 reference weights plus PRE-Tare values handle recurring references efficiently. Battery operation and a compact, light build (net weight 3,6 kg) from manufacturer Kern allow use at multiple locations; counting and weighing modes switch at a keystroke. Backlight extinguishes after 5 seconds, and a protective working cover is included in the scope of delivery.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Counting Scale KERN CIB 3K-4
What is this article?
Counting Scale KERN CIB 3K-4 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern for laboratory use. It sits in Precision balances, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
A precision balance reads more coarsely than an analytical balance, often 1 mg or 10 mg, and it takes a heavier pan load. It is the balance for preparing bulk reagents. Draft, level and a warm-up still move the last digit.
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.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Balances & scales. The sub-category is Precision balances. The catalogue is Lab instruments.
Shelves beside this one are Calibration & test weights, Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, Bench, platform & industrial scales, Analytical balances and Moisture analysers.
What should I check before I order?
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
