Quality Digest Bio Quality Insider New Hardy HIBSX Hazardous and Washdown Bench Scales 12 in. x 12 in., ranging in capacity from 10 lb to 165 lb (5 kg to 75 kg) Published: Tuesday, May 31, 2022 - 12:00 Comment Rss Send Article (Must Login) Print Author Archive (Hardy Process Solutions: San Diego, CA) -- Hardy Process Solutions has announced a new line of bench scales that are easy to clean, low profile, and all stainless-steel construction. The HIBSX series offers simplicity and robust performance for light duty industrial weighing applications. To ensure durability in industrial applications, Hardy has performed corner, overload, and cycle testing to more than 8 million cycles. The HISBX series is ideal for manual check weighing, piece portioning, counting, and adding minor ingredients to a process or a batch. With an optimized internal “X” design, the scales reduce the time required to sanitize them while offering one of the lowest profiles in the industry at just 2.02 in. to 2.95 in. (51.3 mm to 75 mm adjustable). Hardy HIBSX bench scales come with RoHS compliant 304 stainless-steel hardware, frames, and platters. Users may choose between stainless-steel hermetically sealed IP68/69K C2 load cells or aluminum, environmentally sealed IP67 C2 load cells, depending on their application. HIBSX bench scale Internal “X” design reduces the time required to sanitize. Made in the United States, all Hardy HIBSX bench scales come standard in the most popular 12 in. x 12 in. size, ranging in capacity from 10 lb to 165 lb (5 kg to 75 kg). They are designed to meet a combination of customer requirements, including form factor, wash down, and use in hazardous areas. “Hardy has built its C2 weight-free calibration technology into every scale, delivering the lowest total cost of ownership on the market,” says Jeff Moen, product manager at Hardy. “C2 calibration saves time during commissioning and replacement, removes extra personnel from processing areas, and keeps your manufacturing process cleaner by eliminating the need for potentially contaminated test weights.” With hazardous FM approval, the HIBSX with the stainless-steel load cell is built for wash down applications and hazardous environments. With an IP67 aluminum load cell, the HIBSX is designed for use in dry and dusty hazardous environments. Each load cell has a +/- 0.02% accuracy specification.
