Description
Bench scale KERN FPB 3K-4 is a compact weighing instrument built for laboratory and production environments where robustness and hygiene matter. 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 to clean and supports hygienic handling of samples and portions. Battery and mains adapter are included, enabling continuous operation even while the battery is charging; the light, compact design also allows flexible use at several workstations. From manufacturer Kern, the scale offers innovative tolerance weighing in which the display colour changes with the result—too light, within range or too heavy—to assist portioning, dosing and sorting. An integrated piece-counting function stores a reference piece weight for efficient counting tasks, and a sleep function automatically switches the instrument into energy-saving mode after an adjustable idle period. Net weight is 2,2 kg. Ideal for multi-site lab, QC and industrial weighing workflows that need clear visual feedback and portable operation.

Questions about Bench Scale KERN FPB 3K-4
What is this article?
Bench Scale KERN FPB 3K-4 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Bench, platform & industrial scales, inside Balances & scales, in Instruments de laboratoire.
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.
