KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3 HFD Crane Scale, 6000 kg Capacity, 2 kg Readability

KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3 Crane Scale — 6000 kg Capacity with Wireless Remote Display

Suspended loads up to 6000 kg weigh accurately with the KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3 Crane Scale. Designed for demanding lifting environments, the KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3 Crane Scale pairs 6000 kg capacity with 0.5 kg; 1 kg; 2 kg readability and a 20 m wireless radio link between the scale body and a handheld remote — keeping operators safely away from suspended loads.

Key Features

• Multi-range capacity: Three selectable weighing ranges — 1500 kg; 3000 kg; 6000 kg — each with a matching readability of 0.5 kg; 1 kg; 2 kg — let operators choose the resolution that matches the job.
• 20 m wireless radio link: A built-in radio module transmits weight data to the handheld remote display across up to 20 m, so operators never need to stand under the load to read results.
• Rechargeable Li-Ion battery: Up to 30 h of operation on a single charge with the backlight on keeps the scale running through full production shifts without a mains connection.
• Hold function: Captures the peak weight reading when the load is still swinging, ensuring accurate results even under dynamic lift conditions.
• Sum memory: Accumulates multiple individual weighments into a running total, simplifying batch load tracking and freight documentation.
• External calibration: Calibration is performed with an external reference weight traceable to national standards; optional DKD accredited calibration certificate is available on request.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3 Crane Scale is built around a high-alloy steel load cell housed in a cast aluminium body, with suspension and hook components made from unalloyed forged steel rated to handle the full 6000 kg working load. The white LED-backlit LCD reads out in kg with a 2-second stabilization time and an internal measuring frequency of 10 Hz, so moving loads settle to a stable reading quickly. A 10-minute warm-up period brings the electronics to thermal equilibrium before calibrated weighing begins. Power comes from a 7.4 V, 5200 mAh Li-Ion pack delivering up to 30 h runtime (backlight on) or 70 hours with the backlight off, backed by a universal 110–240 V AC plug-in adapter for bench recharging. The unit ships in its packaging within one working day and is compatible with KERN accessories HFD-A03, HFD-A07, YKA-07, and HFD-A04 for extended functionality.
