KERN & SOHN HFM 5T0.5 Crane Scale — 5000 kg Capacity with LED Display and Wireless Remote

Demanding lifting environments that require 5000 kg weighing capacity rely on the KERN & SOHN HFM 5T0.5 Crane Scale. The KERN & SOHN HFM 5T0.5 Crane Scale features 0.5 kg readability, a 20 m wireless radio link to a handheld remote, and a robust cast-aluminium housing suited to the harshest industrial sites. A stainless steel load cell and 50 h rechargeable battery runtime let the scale run through extended shifts without returning to a power source.

Key Features

• 5000 kg maximum capacity: Built for heavy industrial loads — steel coils, bulk containers, and large pallets — with 10000-division internal resolution for reliable readings at any point in the range.
• 20 m radio remote display: The wireless link between the scale body and the handheld remote lets operators read weight from a safe distance without standing under the suspended load.
• Hold function: Locks the peak weight reading automatically when a swinging load has not yet stabilized, capturing accurate data even during dynamic lifts.
• Rechargeable lead-acid battery: Up to 50 h of continuous operation on a single charge, backed by a universal 110–240 V AC mains adapter for recharging between shifts.
• Stainless steel load cell: The measurement element is manufactured from high-alloy stainless steel, resisting corrosion and maintaining linearity under repeated heavy loads.
• External calibration: Adjustment is performed with an external reference weight; an optional DKD accredited calibration certificate is available for traceable quality systems.
• Tare to full capacity: The full 5000 kg tare range lets operators zero out containers, hooks, and lifting gear without reducing the usable weighing range.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN HFM 5T0.5 Crane Scale houses a stainless steel load cell inside a cast-aluminium body measuring 300 mm wide × 230 mm deep, with steel lacquered load hooks rated to the full 5000 kg working load. The LED-segment display reads out in kg with a 2-second stabilization time and a 10 Hz internal measuring frequency, settling quickly on stable loads. A 30-minute warm-up period brings the instrument to operating temperature before calibrated work begins. The Pb rechargeable battery delivers up to 50 h of runtime (up to 50 hours with backlight off), and the universal power adapter supports worldwide mains voltages.

Applications

• Overhead weighing in steel mills, heavy fabrication, and shipyards
• Bulk material weighing at quarries, ports, and aggregate terminals
• Freight verification on overhead cranes at logistics depots
• Process control in large-batch chemical and food manufacturing
• Scrap and recycled material weighing at metal reclamation yards
