KERN & SOHN HFD 1T-4 HFD Crane Scale, 1500 kg Capacity, 0.5 kg Readability, IP67 Rated

KERN & SOHN HFD 1T-4 Crane Scale — 1.500 kg Capacity, 0.1 kg Readability

Reliable results in demanding lift-and-weigh workflows start with the KERN & SOHN HFD 1T-4 Crane Scale, rated to 1.500 kg with 0.1 kg readability. The KERN & SOHN HFD 1T-4 Crane Scale delivers stable strain-gauge results with a 2-second stabilization time, making short work of overhead checkweighing across shifting production schedules.

Key Features

• Multi-range weighing: 1 selectable ranges (300 kg / 0.1 kg) let one instrument cover both fine-resolution and high-capacity tasks without swapping equipment.
• Durable steel construction: Steel load hook and plastic housing form a rugged assembly suited to repeated daily use in industrial lift environments.
• Clear LCD display: A high-contrast LCD shows weight, tare and function status at a glance, enabling quick operator checks between lifts without stopping workflow.
• Strain-gauge measurement principle: The single strain-gauge load cell in aluminium delivers accurate, repeatable results with ±0.2% full-scale tolerance, consistent with KERN & SOHN's industrial weighing standards.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN HFD 1T-4 Crane Scale uses a single strain-gauge load cell to achieve 0.1 kg readability across its 1.500 kg range. Three selectable ranges — 300 kg capacity at 0.1 kg readability — allow operators to switch between fine-resolution checks on lighter items and high-capacity measurement on full loads without changing equipment. Calibration is carried out against an external reference weight, maintaining traceability to recognised standards. The HFD-series engineering from KERN & SOHN incorporates a single high-alloy steel load cell, stainless steel hook and suspension rated for repeated daily use, while the 2-second stabilization time keeps cycle times short in high-volume lifting operations. External calibration against a certified reference weight maintains traceability to recognized standards, and the LCD readout with multi-tare capability lets operators zero out sling and hook weights before recording net load values.

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
