SLC30 Counting Scale for Bulk Ingredients

A counting scale measures small, uniform items by weight rather than by hand. The operator places a sample quantity on the platform, and the scale divides the total weight by the weight of one piece to display the count. This method eliminates manual counting errors and speeds up inventory, portioning and recipe scaling in professional kitchens.

The SLC30 is loaded by placing a container or tray on the stainless-steel platform. The operator sets the sample size—typically ten pieces—using the keypad, then adds the bulk items until the desired count appears on the LCD screen. A tare function removes the weight of the container, so only the net weight of the items is measured. The scale can be powered by an internal battery for mobile use or plugged into a standard mains socket for continuous service.

The platform is stainless steel, sized to hold standard gastronorm trays and ingredient bins. The housing is plastic, designed to resist moisture and cleaning chemicals. Controls consist of a numeric keypad for entering sample sizes and a tare button to zero the display with a container in place.

A 30 kg maximum capacity allows the scale to handle bulk ingredients such as pasta, rice, pulses and pre-portioned proteins. The 5 g or 10 g readability ensures accurate counts of small items like nuts, seeds or individual portions. The 4.2 kg unit weight makes it easy to move between prep stations or storage cupboards.

The scale operates on either battery or mains power, so it can be used in areas without convenient sockets or kept in one location for continuous service. The working temperature range suits standard kitchen environments, from chilled prep areas to ambient storage rooms.

Cleaning involves wiping the stainless-steel platform with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then drying it to prevent corrosion. The plastic housing can be cleaned with the same solution, avoiding abrasive pads that could scratch the surface. The keypad should be kept dry to prevent moisture ingress.

The SLC30 is a single model with no variants. It is placed in the catalogue under scales and portioning equipment.
