IFB.6K1DM industrial scale by KERN — Class III legal-for-trade, IP65 stainless-steel plate

The IFB.6K1DM is a heavy-duty industrial scale designed for legal-for-trade weighing in workshops and production lines, offering precise measurements and rugged protection for continuous use.

• Class III legal-for-trade accuracy 0.001/0.002 kg
• IP65 protection for dusty and wet environments
• Stainless-steel weighing plate, 300×240 mm
• EU/UK/US power adapters included

Reliable accuracy for production control

The scale delivers Class III legal-for-trade performance with a readability of 0.001 kg / 0.002 kg, supported by a linearity of ±0.001 kg / ±0.002 kg and matching repeatability figures. These specifications translate into measurable assurance for quality control and invoicing: tolerances are tight and repeatable, so weight-based decisions and batch checks remain legally compliant and auditable. The clearly legible LCD with 52 mm digits simplifies fast readings in busy production areas, reducing verification time and improving throughput.

Built to withstand workshop conditions

Designed for harsh environments, the instrument features IP65 protection and a stainless-steel weighing plate on a sturdy plastic enclosure, enabling easy cleaning and resistance to dust and water jets. The compact 300×240 mm platform sits on a body that is practical to position and move, while the total instrument weight of 5 kg keeps installation straightforward. Electrical compatibility is wide‑range (100–240 V, 50/60 Hz) and the package includes EU/UK/US plug adapters; no battery is fitted, favouring stable mains operation and uninterrupted measurement cycles within the operating range of −10 °C to 40 °C and up to 80% relative humidity.

Precise piece counting and flexible weighing modes

The device supports reliable piece counting, with the smallest detectable sample for laboratory counting at 200 mg and a normal counting threshold of 2 g, enabling accurate inventory and assembly tasks for small components. Minimum net weighing values are 0.02 kg / 0.04 kg depending on model configuration, which assists in ensuring meaningful readings for low-mass items. At the heart of the instrument is a strain-gauge load cell, a widely used system that converts applied force into an electrical signal; this technology provides stable outputs, linear behaviour and straightforward calibration, making it suited to both routine checks and documentation-sensitive environments.

Compliance, serviceability and trusted provenance

Delivered with legal-for-trade approval in its heavy version, the scale supports certified transactions where verification and traceability are required. Manufacturer KERN supplies a proven metrology pedigree and the construction emphasises longevity and maintenance simplicity: replaceable adapters and a durable platform reduce downtime. As a partner providing precision solutions, Metav Werkzeuge combines broad product availability and decades of know‑how to support integration into workflows and to ensure consistent supply from its Emmerich hub.

FAQ

What level of legal accuracy does this scale provide?
The KERN IFB.6K1DM offers Class III legal-for-trade accuracy with a readability of 0.001 kg / 0.002 kg, suitable for certified weighing and invoicing applications.

Can the scale be used in wet or dusty production areas?
Yes. The instrument is rated IP65, which means the enclosure and platform resist dust ingress and water jets, making it suitable for many workshop and production environments.

What power supply is required for operation?
The unit accepts 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz mains power and is supplied with EU/UK/US plug adapters; there is no internal battery fitted.

Is the scale suitable for accurate piece counting of small parts?
Yes. The counting function supports lab-level detection down to 200 mg and standard counting from 2 g, allowing reliable piece counts for small components.

How large is the weighing surface and is it easy to clean?
The weighing plate is 300×240 mm and made from stainless steel, designed for straightforward cleaning and durability in industrial use.

What measurement system is used for weight sensing?
A strain-gauge load cell is employed; this converts mechanical force into an electrical signal and provides stable, linear measurements for consistent quality control.
