Kern HCB Hanging Balances
Kern HCB Hanging Balance Overview
The Kern HCB Hanging Balance is a handy hanging scale from Kern, designed for higher loads in industrial and commercial weighing tasks. As part of the HCB series, this hanging balance uses a strain gauge weighing system and an LCD display to support practical suspended weighing where a bench or floor scale is not the most suitable option.
It is useful for rapid weight control in goods-in and goods-out, as well as on construction sites, in warehouse logistics, workshops, food industry settings and selected private-sector weighing tasks such as fish, game, fruit, bicycle parts and suitcases.
Why Choose the Kern HCB Series?
The HCB series combines straightforward suspended weighing with practical reading functions, including hold and peak hold for easier result capture. With the TÜV certification mark, it meets the requirements of EN 13155 for non-fixed load lifting attachments and breakage resistance, and EN 61010-1 for electrical safety.
Designed for Industrial and Practical Suspended Weighing
This Kern hanging balance is suited to UK buyers needing a reinforced hanging scale for higher-load weighing in logistics, site work, production support and workshop environments. Its application scope also extends to hunting, small animal weighing and small animal breeding where suspended weighing is appropriate.
