Overview
The Brecknell S100 is a rugged, self-contained general purpose bench scale built for non-trade industrial applications in shipping, receiving, and production environments. It combines a stainless steel 18"×22" platform with a bright 6-digit red LED indicator, built-in RS-232 interface, and a rechargeable battery that delivers up to 35 hours of continuous operation. Three capacity options — 150 lb, 300 lb, and 600 lb — share the same platform size and indicator, making the S100 adaptable across a wide range of workstation weighing needs.
