KERN FKB 15K0.5 — bench scale with 15 kg range and 0.5 g readability
The KERN FKB 15K0.5 is a high-resolution bench scale designed for industrial and workshop use, providing precise weight capture and flexible data integration for digital workflows.
- High-resolution up to 30,000 points
- Stainless steel weighing plate
- KERN Universal Port (KUP) for IoT adapters
- Compact footprint with 15 kg capacity
High-resolution weighing for dependable quality control
The scale delivers high-resolution results with a readability of 0.5 g, a reproducibility of 0.5 g and a linearity specification of ±1.5 g, making it suitable for tasks that require detection of small weight differences. The internal strain gauge weighing system ensures stable readings even under fluctuating production conditions. For applications such as material loss measurement, abrasion analysis, sample weighing or inventory checks, the precise measurement behaviour reduces rework and secures process reliability. The clear 25 mm display supports fast readability on the shop floor and helps operators confirm values at a glance.
Seamless integration into Industry 4.0 environments
Equipped with the KERN Universal Port (KUP), the unit can be upgraded with plug‑in adapters such as RS‑232, USB, Bluetooth, WLAN or Ethernet without opening the housing, enabling straightforward retrofitting to modern networks. The KCP communication protocol allows remote querying and control from PCs or PLCs, supporting automated data capture and traceable logging. This modular connectivity reduces integration time, lowers implementation costs and enables direct transfer of weighing data to databases, tablets or printers for immediate use in quality systems and MES environments.
Robust design for daily industrial use and flexible operation
A stainless steel weighing plate combined with a die‑cast plastic housing provides a durable solution that copes with frequent handling and industrial wear. The compact dimensions make the unit suitable for constrained workstations while the base includes a level bubble and adjustable feet for precise levelling. For mobile or intermittent use, battery operation is possible with standard 6×1.5 V AA cells; typical battery life is 80 h and internal battery charging takes about 10 h. Mains operation is supported via a multi‑plug power adapter supplied for AUS, CH, EURO, UK and US sockets, allowing immediate use across different sites.
Practical features that speed up routine tasks
Operational functions such as PRE‑TARE for known container weights and a programmable weighing unit (for example g/m or g/m²) simplify repetitive checks and custom measurement tasks. The scale supports piece counting down to small reference weights and is delivered with a protective cover and levelling aids for safe daily handling. Compatibility with KERN EasyTouch software facilitates data collection and evaluation, while optional extensions like the KUP‑13 extension box allow multiple adapters to run in parallel—ideal where several interfaces are required simultaneously.
