Compact Bench Scales Ideal for Harsh and Wet Environment Food Processing Applications

Ohaus Corporation, a leading worldwide manufacturer of scales and balances, announces the launch of the Valor™ 4000 and Valor 2000 lines of compact bench scales.

Valor 4000 and 2000 display results in less than half a second, producing accurate results almost instantly while increasing productivity in the workplace.  Valor 4000’s four application modes include weighing, percentage weighing, check weighing and accumulation and can meet the various weight determination needs of retail locations such as bakeries and delicatessens, which require legal-for-trade operation. Valor 2000 provides accurate weight determination and checkweighing on select models, and is ideal for basic food processing applications that solely require fast and accurate weighing results.

Both models feature a FlowThru™ design and IPX8 construction that make the scales ideal for weighing liquids or working in wet environments and when sanitation is extremely important. The food-safe design is also NSF Certified, USDA-AMS Accepted and supports HACCP-Certified systems. 

The highly durable 0.5 mm polycarbonate or stainless steel housing protects the scales when they come in contact with sharp object such as knives, scissors, and other kitchen tools. The four keys on the Valor 4000 and two on the Valor 2000 can be safely pressed with a knife or other sharp object.

Boasting the largest dual LED displays in its class, the Valor 4000 and Valor 2000 can be utilised by two operators. The Valor 4000 also boasts a touchless, infrared sensor in the rear of the scale to offer hands-free operation of the tare function for the second operator and reduces the risk of food contamination on the scale.
