Kern & Sohn IoT-Line Table Scale KERN FKB 8K0.05

The KERN FKB 8K0.05 bench scale from Kern & Sohn's IoT line is designed for high-precision weighing in industrial environments. With a resolution of up to 160,000 points, it is particularly suitable for applications where even the smallest weight differences must be reliably measured, 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, providing additional protection against dust and dirt.

In line with Industry 4.0 principles, the scale features an integrated KERN Universal Port, allowing for the easy connection of external KUP interface adapters such as RS-232, USB, Bluetooth, WLAN, or Ethernet. This makes retrofitting interfaces convenient, eliminating the need to open the scale housing or perform complicated installations. The interface adapters enable the easy transfer of weighing data to networks, PCs, smartphones, tablets, laptops, or printers. Simultaneously, control commands and data inputs can be sent directly to the scale from the connected devices. The KERN KUP-13 extension box allows for the parallel operation of up to three KUP interface adapters.

Additionally, 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. Furthermore, freely programmable weighing units are available, for example, for the direct display of wire lengths in g/m or basis weights in g/m² for paper, fabric, or sheet metal. This makes the KERN FKB 8K0.05 a powerful solution for precise, networked, and efficient weighing processes in industry, laboratories, and quality assurance.
