Hanging scales

Hanging scales

Our portable scales are used to weigh loads (particularly suspended loads) ranging from a few kg to 10 t. The battery-powered systems are easy to operate and are employed in the most varied industrial areas. The hanging scales consist of a force transducer and display unit.


Hanging scale ZW 1.0

The digital scale ZW 1.0 is designed for measurement of weights up to 1000kg. The hanging scales are distinguished by their low own weight and compact design. They can be easily adapted with fork ends or hooks. The measured value is read out on a hand terminal connected to the scales by cable. Measured values are displayed in 1kg increments.

Hanging scale ZW 1.0

  • Nominal load range 1000kg
  • Accuracy ± 0.5% from ultimate value
  • Maximum and minimal value memory
  • Tare
  • Battery operation
  • No signal output
  • Accessories incl. 2 fork ends and a load hook
  • Weighing in industrial and agricultural applications
  • Crane scale
  • Force measurement / Dynamometer

Hanging scale ZW 5.0

This digital scale is available in load ranges from 50 to 500kg. It consists of two HKM components: a shear force load cell as a transducer and a hand terminal connected by a cable. The compact size of the transducer ensures that use in conditions where space is restricted does not present a problem. The transducer can be adapted with spherical rod ends and eyebolts. Other forms of force introduction are possible directly via the two mounting threads on the shear force load cell. Simple control is possible using the hand terminal on which measured values are displayed. 

This scale can also be calibrated in Newtons and used as a force gauge.

Hanging scales ZW 6.0, 7.0, 8.0

These digital scales are designed for load ranges from 1000 to 10,000kg. They consist of two HKM components: a shear force load cell as a transducer and a hand terminal connected by a cable. The transducers are distinguished by a high nominal load range and, consequently, are particularly suitable for applications in which major forces need to be measured. The transducer can be adapted with spherical rod ends and eyebolts. Other forms of force introduction are possible directly via the two mounting threads on the shear force load cell. Simple control is possible using the hand terminal on which measured values are displayed.

These scales can also be calibrated in Newtons and used as a force gauge.
