KERN & SOHN CH 50K50 CH Crane Scale, 50 kg Capacity, 0.05 kg Readability

KERN & SOHN CH 50K50 Crane Scale — 50 kg Capacity, 0.05 kg Readability

Measuring suspended loads does not require a fixed weighing station when the KERN & SOHN CH 50K50 Crane Scale is on hand. Rated to 50 kg with 0.05 kg readability, KERN & SOHN CH 50K50 Crane Scale fits inline with standard lifting hardware for immediate, portable measurement wherever it is needed.

Key Features

• 50 kg suspended capacity: Handles load ranges from light rigging checks to heavy bulk-goods verification in one compact unit, eliminating bench scale repositioning.
• Steel load hook: A steel hook resists the shear and tensile stresses of repeated overhead lifts; the hook set includes both an upper attachment point and a lower load-bearing hook.
• 80 h battery life: Powered by a single 9 V block alkaline battery, KERN & SOHN CH 50K50 Crane Scale delivers approximately 80 h of continuous operation — enough for extended shift use without carrying spare cells.
• 2 s stabilization: Results settle within 2 s of load application so crane operators and rigging teams can confirm a weight without extended hold times during a lift.
• Tare function: Zero out slings, spreader bars or container weights before weighing net load, keeping the readout relevant to the actual goods rather than the rigging hardware.
• Multi-unit display: Reads in kg, lb N, letting operators and supervisors compare against both metric and imperial load limits without conversion.
• 3-key operation: Minimal keypad keeps the interface simple for crane operators wearing gloves or working at height, reducing input errors during overhead weighing.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN CH 50K50 Crane Scale is housed in a plastic body measuring 90×30×176.5 mm, keeping overall weight low for convenient overhead attachment. Its strain-gauge load cell measures up to 50 kg with 0.05 kg readability, ±0.1 kg linearity, and a 1.000-division resolution that underpins reliable tare-and-count cycles. A 5 Hz internal sampling frequency keeps response snappy during dynamic lifts. A single 9 V block battery powers the scale for up to 80 h; warm-up is only 10 min, so time from unpack to first accurate reading stays minimal. External calibration with a recommended weight of 20 kg (M3) keeps the scale traceable to site standards. Operating range is 5° to 35°C / 41° to 95°F.

Applications

• Suspended load measurement in workshops, warehouses and distribution centres
• Scrap metal and recycling yard weighing of loose materials in bags or skips
• Construction site weighing of bundled materials and pre-cast elements during lifts
• Agricultural bulk weighing of grain bags, bales and livestock in the field
