Solid construction and easy operation make the PS Floor Scales the ideal solution for weighing large animals and veterinary usage, as well as freight operations. This scale has large platform. The 1000 lb and 2000 lb versions have a tread plate surface and end ramps. The 3000 lb version doesn't have ramps, but has a rubber mat that reduces noise and risk of animals/goods slipping while weighing. Simple to-operate, the indicator offers all the weighing functions needed for a wide range of applications as well as the display-hold function that retains results on the screen, while you tend to the animal. AC and battery powered means this scale can easily be installed in remote locations where power sockets are not available. Durable design for rigorous applications.
