Description
Industrial scale IXC 6K-4 is a high-resolution platform scale with a weighing range of 6 kg and readability of 0,0002 kg for precise industrial weighing tasks. Built to a heavy industrial standard for harsh conditions, the platform uses a stainless-steel weighing plate on a painted steel base together with a silicone-coated aluminium load cell offering dust and splash protection to IP65. The evaluation unit is stainless steel with IP68 protection, a superior backlit display showing 48 mm digits for easy reading in low light, and an integrated power supply.
This article is part of Bench, platform & industrial scales, in Balances & scales.
From manufacturer Kern, the instrument follows a consistent operating concept for design, menu structure, key functions and interface protocols. Industry 4.0 readiness supports optional data and command exchange over up to four interfaces—two wired (RS-232, Ethernet, USB or analogue module) and two wireless (WLAN, Bluetooth)—each set independently for process documentation, printing of stable values, target-weight actuation or continuous tablet monitoring. Optional alibi memory allows paperless archiving of weighing results, including those subject to legal metrology. The scale can be interrogated and remote-controlled from a computer or CRM/ERP environment via the KERN Communication Protocol.

What is this article?
Industrial balance IXC 6K-4, Weighing, range 6 kg, Readout 0,0002 kg 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.
