2. Producte acabatview
The Kern FKB 30K1A is a robust industry bench scale designed for accurate weighing of heavy loads in various applications. Its compact dimensions and large weighing range make it suitable for environments with restricted space.

Image 1: The Kern FKB 30K1A Industry Bench Scale. This image displays the scale from an elevated front-right angle, showing its stainless steel weighing platform, the gray base, and the integrated control panel with a digital display and several buttons (ON/OFF, TARE, MODE/CAL, PRINT).
Característiques principals:
- PRE-TARE Function: Allows manual subtraction of a known container weight, useful for checking fill-levels.
- Disseny compacte: Practical for weighing heavy loads in restricted spaces due to large weighing ranges and compact dimensions.
- Alta precisió: Useful for determining small weight differences, such as gas consumption, abrasion of mechanical parts, or analysis of rock samples, minerals, druses, and silver.
- Programmable Weighing Unit: Display directly in special units like length of wire (g/m) or surface weight (g/m²).
- Protective Working Cover: Included for enhanced durability and cleanliness.
3. Configuració
3.1 Desembalatge
- Traieu amb cura la bàscula del seu embalatge.
- Inspect all components for any signs of damage. If any damage is found, contact your supplier immediately.
- Ensure all accessories, including the protective working cover, are present.
3.2 Col·locació
- Col·loqueu la bàscula en una superfície estable i plana per garantir mesures precises.
- Avoid locations with strong vibrations, direct sunlight, drafts, or extreme temperature fluctuations.
- Ensure adequate space around the scale for operation and ventilation.
3.3 Connexió d'alimentació
Connect the scale to a suitable power outlet using the provided power adapter. Ensure the voltage matches the scale's requirements.
3.4 Calibratge inicial
While the scale is factory-calibrated, it is recommended to perform an initial calibration or check with a known weight after setup, especially if the scale has been moved. Refer to the 'MODE/CAL' button section in the Operating instructions for calibration procedures.
4. Instruccions de funcionament
4.1 Encès/Apagat
- Premeu el botó ON/OFF button to turn the scale on. The display will show a self-test sequence and then settle at 0.000 g.
- Manteniu premut el botó ON/OFF botó per apagar la bàscula.
4.2 Pesatge bàsic
- Ensure the scale is on and the display shows 0.000.
- Place the item to be weighed on the center of the weighing plate.
- Llegeix el pes que es mostra a la pantalla.
4.3 Funció TARA
La funció TARA permet restar el pes d'un recipient, de manera que només es mesura el pes net del contingut.
- Place the empty container on the weighing plate.
- Premeu el botó TARA button. The display will reset to 0.000.
- Add the material to be weighed into the container. The display will show the net weight of the material.
- Per esborrar la tara, retireu el contenidor i premeu TARA de nou.
4.4 PRE-TARE Function
The PRE-TARE function allows for manual input of a known container weight without placing the container on the scale. This is particularly useful for checking fill-levels or when the container is too large to fit on the plate.
- Consult the scale's advanced settings menu (typically accessed via the MODE/CAL button or a combination of buttons) to access the PRE-TARE input.
- Enter the known weight of the container using the appropriate buttons (refer to the full technical manual for specific button sequences).
- Once the PRE-TARE value is set, the scale will automatically subtract this weight from subsequent measurements.
4.5 Unit Selection (MODE/CAL)
El MODE/CAL button is used to switch between weighing units (e.g., grams, kilograms, pounds) and to access calibration functions.
- Canvi d'unitats: Premeu breument MODE/CAL button to cycle through available weighing units.
- Calibració: Manteniu premut el botó MODE/CAL button to enter calibration mode. Follow the on-screen prompts and use a certified calibration weight.
- Programmable Units: The scale supports freely programmable weighing units (e.g., g/m, g/m²). Refer to the detailed technical manual for instructions on setting up custom units.
4.6 Funció d'impressió
If connected to a compatible printer, the IMPRIMIR button can be used to send the current weighing data to the printer. The free software SHM01 can be used to print 4 header lines on the printout for printer specifications.
5. Manteniment
5.1 Neteja
- Always disconnect the scale from the power supply before cleaning.
- Utilitzeu un suau, damp cloth with a mild detergent to clean the weighing plate and housing.
- No utilitzeu netejadors abrasius ni dissolvents, ni submergiu la bàscula en aigua.
- Ensure no liquids enter the interior of the scale.
5.2 Emmagatzematge
- When not in use, store the scale in a dry, dust-free environment.
- Utilize the included protective working cover to shield the scale from dust and spills.
- Avoid placing heavy objects on the weighing plate during storage.
