1.0 Introduction
The
Summit 3000
floor scale provides exceptional performance and is an economical solution in light industrial
applications. The
Summit 3000
floor scale is a fully electronic, low profile floor scale that comes in sizes from 36 in
x 36 in (.91 m x .91 m) to 60 in x 60 in (1.52 m x 1.52 m), and capacities from 2000 to 10,000 lb (1000 to 5000 kg).
All models use four corner-mounted, NTEP-certified, alloy steel shear beam load cells, with the cells recessed into
the frame channels for protection. All models are shipped pre-trimmed, so corner corrections are not needed on
arrival. However, the signal trim summing board is enclosed in a durable ABS enclosure that has a convenient
top-access for future corner corrections.
Other available options include custom frames for pit installations and access ramps for all sizes.
