KERN & SOHN DE 60K5A DE Platform Scale, 60 kg Capacity, 0.005 kg Readability, RS-232

KERN & SOHN DE 60K5A Platform Scale — 60 kg Capacity, 0.005 kg Readability

Accuracy to 0.005 kg across a 60 kg capacity range is what makes the KERN & SOHN DE 60K5A Platform Scale a preferred instrument for parcel and production line weighing. At 60 kg capacity and 0.005 kg readability, the KERN & SOHN DE 60K5A Platform Scale covers a broad range of parcel, batch and industrial weighing tasks without requiring separate instruments for different load sizes. The metal, lacquered weighing platform pairs with a plastic display indicator to give a durable, easy-to-maintain combination suitable for repeated daily use.

Key Features

• Metal, Lacquered platform: Durable lacquered-metal deck withstands repeated loading from parcels, containers and production totes without deforming or corroding.
• Backlit LCD indicator: Clear backlit display reads weight, tare and net values in any lighting condition; the plastic housing keeps the indicator protected on busy floors.
• RS-232 data interface: Standard serial port transmits weight readings to printers, PCs and warehouse management systems for real-time logistics and inventory records.
• Full-range tare (60 kg): Multi-tare function zeroes out any container weight, preserving full net-weighing capacity for accurate batch or parcel readings.
• 4-load-cell strain-gauge system: Multiple load cells distribute platform stress evenly, maintaining ±± 0.015 kg linearity even when loads are placed off-center.
• Percentage determination: Calculates the weight of a sample as a percentage of a reference value, useful for fill-rate verification and batch reconciliation.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN DE 60K5A Platform Scale delivers a single range of 60 kg with 0.005 kg readability, built on a metal, lacquered platform with a plastic indicator housing. The platform dimensions are 315×305×75 mm. Strain-gauge technology stabilizes readings in 2.5 s and the full tare range matches the maximum capacity for maximum flexibility in container weighing. Eccentric load error stays within 0.025 kg at one-third span. Four load cells distribute weighing forces for uniform accuracy across the platform surface. The 5-key operator panel gives direct access to percentage determination, making this scale useful beyond basic weighing tasks. An RS-232 standard interface connects to printers and PC-based warehouse or production systems for real-time data capture.
