    Load-Estimating Dial-Display Hanging Scales

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Scales. Load-Estimating Dial-Display Hanging Scales.
    Determine the approximate weight of large, bulky materials that are impractical to weigh with a floor scale. These scales are often used in loading vehicles and can be suspended from a crane, block and tackle lift, A-frame, or forklift blade. They convert pressure readings (in psi) to weight in pounds.

    Washdown Legal-for-Trade Digital-Display Hanging Scales

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Scales. Washdown Legal-for-Trade Digital-Display Hanging Scales.
    Often used to weigh materials sold by weight in harsh conditions, these NTEP-approved scales have an aluminum enclosure that meets IP65 and NEMA 4 for protection from dirt and washdowns. They come with a certificate of calibration traceable to NIST that states they've passed a test for accuracy. The tare function lets you reset the scale to zero after hanging a container on the hook. Scales operate on the included AC adapter or the included rechargeable battery.

    Receiver

    Display

    Safely view your tension force measurements on a handheld receiver up to 450 ft. away when moving bulk material with cranes and hoists. These gauges are also called dynamometers and crane scales. Made of steel, they’re durable enough to briefly hold heavy loads up to 500% of their capacity. But, they will no longer take measurements if the load exceeds 200%. Warning lights will flash first when your load exceeds capacity, then again when it reaches 133% capacity. To prevent overloads, the peak-hold setting displays the highest measurement. The tare function lets you reset the gauge to zero after attaching a container to weigh only the material inside. These gauges include a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they’ve passed a test for accuracy. They also meet IEC and ASME safety and fatigue standards.
    Because their indicators and load cells are IP rated, these gauges stand up to washdowns and brief submersion common to food and chemical plants. They’re also safe to use outdoors since they’re NEMA rated to seal out weather.
    These gauges come with two shackles that work with other lifting fittings, such as clevis hooks. The included batteries power their load cells for up to 2,000 hours.

    Remote Digital Display

    Weigh materials sold by weight right from your forklift—these forks have an embedded scale that’s NTEP certified for accuracy. For easy viewing, clamp the remote display to your forklift’s dashboard or mast. The scale uses Bluetooth to send measurements. You can also link the scale to your smartphone or tablet to view, log, and export data from an app.
    To measure the weight of your load alone, place an empty pallet on the forks and press the tare button. Then either load up the pallet or remove it and pick up a different, pre-loaded pallet with the forks. The scale also has tilt compensation, so it’s accurate even if the mast is not perfectly vertical.
    Use these forks with any forklift equipped with an Industrial Truck Association (ITA) Class II carriage. They slide into forklift pockets just like any other forks. To minimize downtime, each fork has its own battery that lasts up to 75 hours on a single charge.
    Warning: Distribute your load evenly across the forks to prevent overloading one side or the tips. Never use to lift people or items over people.
