Description
IoT-Line bench scale KERN FCB 12K1 is a compact control and portioning scale with a maximum load of 12 kg and a readability of 0,001 kg. Designed for limited workspace, it follows a consistent operating concept across design, menu structure, key functions, interface connection and protocol. Industry 4.0 connectivity is provided by the KERN Universal Port (KUP): data and control commands can be exchanged via a single interface on the housing or in parallel through up to three interfaces using the KUP Extension Box. Available interface options include RS-232, USB, Ethernet, WLAN and Bluetooth. The scale can be queried and remotely controlled from a computer or CRM/ERP system via the KERN Communication Protocol. High mobility is supported by optional battery or rechargeable operation and a light, compact build for multi-site use. Checkweighing allows entry of two upper and two lower tolerance limits via four arrow keys, with optical and acoustic signals to assist portioning, dosing or sorting. Weight values can be totalled, and a protective working cover is included. This model from manufacturer Kern suits laboratory and industrial portioning and control tasks.

Questions about IoT-Line Bench Scale KERN FCB 12K1
What is this article?
IoT-Line Bench Scale KERN FCB 12K1 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.
Which category should I open next?
