KERN & SOHN FOB 5K-3NS FOB Washdown Bench Scale, 5000 g Capacity, 1 g Readability, IP65 Rated

KERN & SOHN FOB 5K-3NS Washdown Scale — 5000 g capacity, 1 g readability, IP65 rated

Reliable performance across a 5000 g weighing range defines the KERN & SOHN FOB 5K-3NS Washdown Scale, designed for professionals who depend on every reading. The IP65-rated housing withstands direct water jets and chemical washdowns, making the KERN & SOHN FOB 5K-3NS Washdown Scale ideal for food processing, pharmaceutical lines, and hygiene-critical workspaces.

Key Features

• Precise performance: Rated to 5000 g with 1 g readability, the KERN & SOHN FOB 5K-3NS Washdown Scale delivers consistent results across its full weighing range.
• IP65 sealed housing: Full dust and liquid protection to IP65 standards makes the KERN & SOHN FOB 5K-3NS Washdown Scale suitable for washdown cleaning, humid production floors, and outdoor environments without risk of damage to internal electronics.
• Stainless steel weighing surface: The stainless steel pan resists corrosion, cleans quickly between samples, and maintains a hygienic contact surface for food, pharmaceutical, and chemical weighing applications.
• Rapid 2 s stabilization: A 2 s reading stabilization keeps cycle times short on busy production benches and dispatch counters, reducing wait time and lifting overall throughput on the KERN & SOHN FOB 5K-3NS Washdown Scale.
• Full-capacity tare: Manual tare across the entire 5000 g weighing range enables container weight subtraction at any point in the weighing cycle, keeping net-weight results accurate throughout the shift.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN FOB 5K-3NS Washdown Scale is an IP65-rated bench scale built on a single strain-gauge load cell, with a stainless steel weighing surface and stainless steel housing measuring 150×170×40 mm (W×D×H). The 5000 g capacity and 1 g readability cover the majority of portion-control, formulation, and receiving tasks in food and industrial environments. Sealed to IP65, the complete unit can be rinsed under running water or subjected to scheduled production washdowns without risk to internal electronics. Manual multi-tare across the full 5000 g range accommodates container offsets quickly, and an auto-off timer conserves battery life between weighing sessions. A 10 min warm-up time allows the electronics to stabilize before precision weighing begins. External calibration is carried out using a 5 kg (M1) reference weight, traceable to national standards.

Applications

• Food processing and meat preparation areas requiring high-pressure washdown
• Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical production with strict hygiene protocols
• Chemical processing and laboratory environments exposed to splashing liquids
• Seafood, dairy, and bakery production lines
• Industrial manufacturing where regular cleaning with water or solvents is required
