KERN & SOHN HCD 100K-2D HCD Crane Scale, 150 kg Capacity, 0.05 kg Readability

KERN & SOHN HCD 100K-2D Crane Scale — 150 kg Capacity, 0.05 kg Readability

At 150 kg capacity and 0.05 kg readability, the KERN & SOHN HCD 100K-2D Crane Scale covers a broad range of overhead weighing tasks without sacrificing precision. The KERN & SOHN HCD 100K-2D Crane Scale offers peak-hold capture, making it well suited to demanding industrial and commercial applications.

Key Features

• Multi-range weighing: 2 selectable ranges (60 kg / 0.02 kg, 150 kg / 0.05 kg) let one instrument cover both fine-resolution and high-capacity tasks without swapping equipment.
• Stainless steel load hook: The stainless steel hook resists corrosion and handles repeated loading cycles without surface degradation, extending operational life in humid or coastal environments.
• Peak capture: The peak function records the highest load reached during a dynamic lift, useful for calculating shock loads and confirming safe working limits on lifting equipment.
• 100 h battery life: A 4×1.5 V AA alkaline battery pack runs the scale for approximately 100 h, reducing the interruption of charging stops during extended weighing sessions.
• Backlit LCD display: The backlit readout stays legible in low-light crane bays, loading docks and outdoor areas, reducing misreads during fast-paced lifting operations.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN HCD 100K-2D Crane Scale is built around a single strain-gauge load cell in aluminium with a plastic display housing, housed in a compact 150×79×97 mm body. Three selectable ranges — 60 kg capacity at 0.02 kg readability; 150 kg capacity at 0.05 kg readability — allow operators to switch between fine-resolution checks on lighter items and high-capacity measurement on full loads without changing equipment. Battery operation with approximately 100 h on a single set of 4×1.5 V AA cells keeps the KERN & SOHN HCD 100K-2D independent from fixed power infrastructure during field operations, and 2-second stabilization keeps cycle time short. Calibration is carried out against an external reference weight, maintaining traceability to recognised standards.

Applications

• Overhead load measurement on crane hooks, hoists and gantry systems in manufacturing plants
• Freight and cargo weighing on loading docks and in warehouses
• Livestock and animal weighing in agricultural and veterinary settings
• Rigging and lifting safety checks on construction and civil engineering sites
• Scrap metal and recycling operations where fast, repeatable weighing of hanging loads is required
