Marsden PB-SS-I-100SS-APP Stainless Steel Weigh Beams

What is the PB-SS-I-100SS-APP?

The PB-SS-I-100SS-APP is a Trade Approved stainless steel weighbeam scale. Stainless steel weighbeams are the perfect portable solution for weighing goods in environments that may be damp, humid or dusty.

These industrial beams are constructed from 304 grade stainless steel. They are certified IP68, which means they are waterproof and suitable for washing down. The stainless steel indicator is certified IP65 wipedown.

Weighbeams are ideal for smaller operations or where scales are required in different locations. The PB-SS-I-100SS-APP is well suited to warehouses and food factories where a Trade Approved scale is required.

What is a Trade Approved Scale?

A Trade Approved scale is a weighing scale that must be used when the price of an item is based on its weight.

The Weights & Measures Act 1985 states that if a weighing scale is used for one of six applications – including commercial transactions, direct sales to the public and calculating a fine or penalty, the scale must be Trade Approved. Approved scales go through a rigorous test programme conducted by a Notified Body. Trade Approved status provides assurance to the user that the scale has reached a minimum level of quality and is fit for purpose.

Verification fees are included in the price of all Marsden Trade Approved scales. Find out more about Trade Approved scales in this blog post.

What are benefits of stainless steel weighbeams?

These beams are certified IP68, which means they are waterproof – suitable for wet, humid and dusty environments. They can also be washed down to keep them hygienic.

Stainless steel weighbeams are more durable than mild steel equivalents. Stainless steel is more resistant to corrosion, so should last longer.

Weighbeams are portable and easy to move to different locations, something that is not so easy if you are using a platform scale. Plus, weighbeams can be used to weigh items of different sizes (upto a maximum of 600kg or 1500kg) as they can be positioned the desired distance apart.

Each beam has a handle and wheels for extra portability. Tare and Preset Tare allow you to remove the weight of a pallet.

This scale is not recommended for liquid filling applications; we recommend the PB-SS-JIK-APP for this purpose. For more information about Marsden weigh beam scales, call 01709 364296 or contact us here.
