KERN & SOHN IFS 300K-3 Counting Scale — 300 kg Dual-Range Capacity with Piece Counting

Counting fasteners, castings, or packaged goods across a 150 kg; 300 kg range becomes straightforward with the KERN & SOHN IFS 300K-3 IFS Counting Scale. A 1:3.000 internal counting resolution and 100-PLU memory let operators set unit weights once and recall them across shifts, keeping cycle counts consistent.

Key Features

• Dual-range weighing (150 kg; 300 kg): Two switchable ranges maximise accuracy: the lower 150 kg range uses 0.002 kg readability for fine components, while the upper 300 kg range handles heavier batches at 0.005 kg.
• Piece counting with 100-PLU memory: Store up to 100 part descriptions and unit weights; recall any item instantly so operators don't need to re-sample between jobs or across shifts.
• Tolerance checkweighing: Set upper and lower target limits and get both an audible alert and a visual indicator the moment a batch falls outside specification.
• Sum / accumulation function: Sum-A memory accumulates successive weighments into a running total, simplifying goods-in tallies, batching, and multi-stage pick operations.
• RS-232 output and KCP protocol: The standard RS-232 port transmits live weight and count data via the KERN Communication Protocol, connecting to a PC, label printer, or barcode scanner without custom drivers.
• Optional rechargeable battery: A factory-installed 6 V / 1.2 Ah battery provides up to 8 hours of run time with backlight on and 18 hours with it off, so the scale works anywhere on the floor.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN IFS 300K-3 IFS Counting Scale is built on a 25.6×19.7 in mild-steel platform with a single aluminium load cell. Dual-range capacity (150 kg; 300 kg) lets operators choose 0.002 kg resolution for precision work or 0.005 kg for heavier batches; 1:3.000 internal resolution sharpens piece counts. The backlit LCD mounts on a 330 mm tiltable, wall-mountable stand and displays weight, unit weight, and count simultaneously. External calibration uses a 300 kg (M1) adjusting weight. Optional 6 V / 1.2 Ah battery gives 8 h cordless run time. GLP/ISO printouts carry date and time stamps for quality documentation.

Applications

• Heavy parts counting and bulk-bin inventory on production floors
• Pallet-level goods-in and goods-out verification
