KERN & SOHN IFS 6K-3M IFS Counting Scale, 6 kg Capacity, 0.002 kg Readability, RS-232

KERN & SOHN IFS 6K-3M Counting Scale — 6 kg Dual-Range Capacity with Piece Counting

Built around a 11.8×9.4 in mild-steel platform and a 330 mm-tall adjustable stand, the KERN & SOHN IFS 6K-3M IFS Counting Scale brings 3 kg; 6 kg dual-range capacity and 0.001 kg readability to warehouse counting benches, parts-kitting stations, and production floors. A 100-PLU memory stores unit weights for instant recall across shifts.

Key Features

• Dual-range weighing (3 kg; 6 kg): Two switchable ranges maximise accuracy: the lower 3 kg range uses 0.001 kg readability for fine components, while the upper 6 kg range handles heavier batches at 0.002 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 6K-3M IFS Counting Scale is built on a 11.8×9.4 in mild-steel platform with a single aluminium load cell. Dual-range capacity (3 kg; 6 kg) lets operators choose 0.001 kg resolution for precision work or 0.002 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. OIML Class III / EC type approval cover legal-for-trade use. External calibration uses a 6 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

• Parts kitting and bin-count verification on manufacturing lines
