Digi DS-502 Bench Scale

What is the DS-502 Bench Scale?

The DS-502 is a Trade Approved, IP65-rated bench scale by Digi. This highly accurate bench scale is ideal for weighing small items with precision, and is legal for use when buying or selling based on weight.

This scale is lightweight, compact and portable, and used most commonly in labs as well as food factories.

What is a Trade Approved Scale?

When weighing an item to calculate a price, by law Trade Approved weighing scales must be used. A Trade Approved scale undergoes far more testing than a standard scale – both at the Type Approval stage and prior to it leaving the factory – and therefore should provide highly reliable, repeatable weighing readings.

It is a legal requirement to use Trade Approved weighing scales if you are weighing items to determine their price. If you need guidance on whether you should be using a Trade Approved scale speak to the Marsden team on 01709 364296. All Trade Approved scales from Marsden have verification fees included in the price.

What are the benefits of using the Digi DS-502?

The DS-502 is a lightweight and portable weighing scale, meaning you can take it to wherever you need it. This scale features a very long battery life (4x C-size batteries are required) with 1000 hours' continuous use - an AC adaptor is also included, and the scale has an auto power-off function.

Robustly built, this made-to-last bench scale is very accurate weighing down to an accuracy of 1g, with capacities available ranging from 6kg to 30kg. The scale has a large, easy to read screen displaying the weight reading.

The scale's IP65 rating means it’s suitable in environments where it may get slightly wet, and it can also be wiped down to keep it clean. The rugged scale housing makes it suitable for use in the food industry, factories, hospitals and on farms.
