Sartorious Stainless platform scale / balance trolley

• Used for precise weighing of ingredients or finished products in food production.
• Suitable for quality control checks on batch weights in pharmaceutical or chemical industries.
• Often integrated into mobile workstations for flexible weighing tasks across a facility.
• Can be used for inventory management and portion control in catering and logistics.
• Applicable for verifying incoming raw material weights against supplier specifications.

Typical capacity

Platform scales of this type commonly range from 30 kg to 300 kg, with readability varying by model.

Platform dimensions

For this class of equipment, platforms are typically between 400x400mm and 800x800mm.

Construction material

Units designed for food processing are typically constructed from 304 or 316 grade stainless steel for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Power supply

Many modern platform scales operate on internal rechargeable batteries, with an external charger requiring a standard UK 230V single-phase supply.

Mobility

Units described as 'trolley' or 'mobile' typically feature lockable castor wheels for ease of repositioning.

Display type

Commonly features a digital display, often with an IP-rated enclosure for washdown environments.

Homogeniser attachment

The presence of a homogeniser attachment suggests suitability for applications requiring sample preparation or mixing alongside weighing. Buyers should confirm its operational status and specifications.

• What is the typical accuracy of a Sartorius platform scale?

  Sartorius is known for precision. The accuracy (readability) for platform scales typically ranges from 1g to 50g, depending on the maximum capacity of the specific unit.

• Is this unit suitable for washdown environments?

• What maintenance is typically required for a mobile platform scale?

• Can this scale be integrated with other systems?

• What should I consider regarding the homogeniser attachment?

Precision and portable balances are valued for their accuracy and reliability across laboratory and pharmaceutical settings. Buyers typically seek models with proven calibration stability and minimal drift over time. When purchasing used equipment, industry practice emphasises checking calibration certificates, verifying display functionality, and confirming availability of replacement parts. These instruments are generally regarded as durable workhorses that perform well if properly maintained. Key strengths include repeatability, compact design for space-constrained labs, and compatibility with existing analytical workflows.
