KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3M HFD Crane Scale, 6000 kg Capacity, 2 kg Readability, IP67 Rated

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

Industrial lifting and weighing operations requiring capacity up to 6000 kg are the home territory of the KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3M Crane Scale and IP67 ingress protection. Designed for demanding lifting environments, the KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3M Crane Scale pairs 6000 kg capacity with 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. OIML Class III / EC type approval makes the HFD 6T-3M suitable for legal-for-trade commercial use.

Key Features

• Multi-range capacity: A single 6000 kg range with 2 kg readability keeps piece-weight calculations clear and consistent.
• 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.
• IP67 protection: Complete ingress protection against dust and temporary submersion keeps the scale body operational in wet yards, marine environments, and outdoor winter conditions.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN HFD 6T-3M 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.

Applications

• Crane and hoist weighing in steel mills, foundries, and heavy fabrication
• Freight verification at loading docks and port terminals
• Bulk material weighing in agriculture, mining, and quarrying
• Overhead weighing in recycling and scrap metal yards
• Legal-for-trade commercial transactions at livestock markets and warehouses
