Kern & Sohn IoT-Line Table Scale KERN FKB 15K0.5

The KERN FKB 15K0.5 bench scale from Kern & Sohn's IoT line is designed for precise weighing in industrial environments and achieves a resolution of up to 30,000 points. It is ideally suited for applications requiring the reliable measurement of small weight differences, such as consumed gas, wear on mechanical components, rock samples, minerals, geodes, or precious metals like silver. Despite its large weighing range, its compact dimensions enable precise operation even in confined spaces, even with heavy loads.

The robust die-cast plastic housing ensures stability, reliably protects the sensitive weighing technology, and is resistant to the rigors of daily industrial use. For precise measurements, the scale comes standard with a spirit level and leveling feet. A protective cover is included, reliably shielding the scale from dust and dirt.

In line with Industry 4.0 principles, the scale features an integrated KERN Universal Port, enabling the connection of external KUP interface adapters such as RS-232, USB, Bluetooth, WLAN, or Ethernet. The adapters simply plug in, allowing for convenient interface upgrades without having to open the scale housing or perform complicated installations. This allows weighing data to be easily transferred to networks, PCs, smartphones, tablets, laptops, or printers, while simultaneously enabling control commands and data inputs to be sent directly to the scale via the connected devices. The KERN KUP-13 extension box also allows up to three KUP interface adapters to be operated in parallel.

In addition, the KERN Communication Protocol allows the scale to be queried and remotely controlled via external control devices or computers. The PRE-TARE function enables the manual subtraction of a known container weight and is particularly helpful for fill level checks. Freely programmable weighing units, for example, for displaying wire lengths in g/m or basis weights in g/m² for paper, fabric, or sheet metal, complete the range of functions. This makes the KERN FKB 15K0.5 a reliable, networked, and practical solution for professional applications in industry, laboratories, and quality assurance.
