A new generation of stainless steel floor scales with hygienic design and flexible functionality

PFA579(x)lift and PFA779lift, the new generation of floor scales with raisable load plate, combines an intelligent, yet robust design. The tubular design and reinforced load plate guarantee a long and reliable service life. The floor scales are made entirely of stainless steel, feature high quality components and are machined to the highest of standards. They are easy to clean and ideally suited to harsh, industrial environments.

PFA779lift

The PFA579(x)lift and PFA779lift floor scales are high quality measuring instruments with outstanding metrological properties.

The entire scale, including its precision load cells, is made completely from stainless steel. The load cells form the heart of the scale. They are IP68 protected and have a certifiable verification interval of up to 6000e (OIML). The evaluation electronics are also IP68 protected, available with either an analogue or optionally digital scale interface.

The specially developed rocker foot enables the scale to absorb vibration and movement to give fast, accurate and repeatable weighing results.

The surface of the load plate is available in various designs: non-slip, smooth or ground. What’s more, the load plate is available in various materials (AISI304 and AISI316) and can thus be customised to your own needs.
An integrated overload protection device protects the stainless steel load cells and thereby ensures long, maintenance-free operation.

Customised to your individual requirements…
The PFA579(x)lift and PFA779lift are designed for loads from 300 kg to 3 tons. In addition to the 5 standard sizes, they offer flexible dimensions from 800x800 mm to 1500x1500 mm.

…and handle safely

The scales are GMP certified and can be easily cleaned, even from within the weighing platform. They feature a solid, robust design, while the raisable load plate enables operation at ease:

Simply apply the ergonomic handle at the load plate, lift the load plate with one hand and guide to its final position.

The energy exerted here is minimal. Movement is simple and swift and thus alleviates the strain exerted on your back. Furthermore, the stainless steel floor scales feature an automatic locking mechanism. The scales can therefore be locked easily, eliminating the risk of improper operation.

The finer points of the two product lines

PFA579(x)lift

The PFA579(x)lift floor scale excels in terms of its robustness and durability. It is designed with use in harsh, industrial environments in mind, where regular cleaning is an absolute must.

PFA779lift

The success of the PFA779lift weighing platform lies in its hygienic design. This innovative scale was developed based on the latest regulations for products in hygienically sensitive areas. Hermetically-sealed welded section tubes prevent hollow areas and hidden edges. The load cell cables are laid inside the scales and are sealed by means of cable glands.

The intelligent design of the load cell fastening thus enables detection of potential sources of contamination. What’s more, it makes cleaning much easier in areas which tend to be difficult to access. All mobile storage units are sealed with plastic, thereby eliminating undesirable sources of bacteria and even gap corrosion.
