KERN & SOHN HCD 300K-1 HCD Crane Scale, 300 kg Capacity, 0.1 kg Readability

KERN & SOHN HCD 300K-1 Crane Scale — 300 kg Capacity, 0.1 kg Readability

When overhead weighing demands precision up to 300 kg, the KERN & SOHN HCD 300K-1 Crane Scale answers with 0.1 kg readability and a proven strain-gauge load cell. The KERN & SOHN HCD 300K-1 Crane Scale offers peak-hold capture, giving operators clear readings even in challenging lift environments.

Key Features

• 300 kg capacity at 0.1 kg readability: A single strain-gauge load cell delivers repeatable readings within ±0.2 kg across the full weighing range.
• 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 300K-1 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. With 300 kg capacity, 0.1 kg readability and linearity within ±0.2 kg, the scale meets the demands of overhead weighing in manufacturing and logistics. Battery operation with approximately 100 h on a single set of 4×1.5 V AA cells keeps the KERN & SOHN HCD 300K-1 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
