Is the DS Series legal for trade?

Yes. The DS Series is NTEP Class III approved at 5,000 divisions under Certificate of Conformance 88-221 when the complete installation remains within the approval.

How does the chain-link suspension help?

The chain links direct the platform load into the Weigh Bars while reducing unwanted side and end forces. They also absorb shock that would otherwise be transferred directly to the sensors.

What capacities are currently available?

The current range includes 500, 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, and 20,000 lb configurations with platform sizes from 24 x 24 through 84 x 60 inches.

Can the DS Series be pit mounted?

Yes. A compatible pit frame can create a flush weighing surface where traffic flow or floor-space constraints make a surface-mounted deck less practical.

Can the DS be used in a hazardous area?

The Weigh Bars and junction box have Factory Mutual approvals for certain hazardous-area systems. The indicator, barriers, wiring, and complete installation must be reviewed for the intended classification.

Product Overview

Avery Weigh-Tronix DS Series Deck Scale

Avery Weigh-Tronix DS Series carbon steel deck scale with protected Weigh Bar sensors, chain-link suspension, 200% overload protection, 500-20,000 lb capacities, and NTEP approval.

The DS Series is a rugged industrial deck scale built around a high-steel platform, protected cabling, and a chain-link Weigh Bar suspension. The structure is designed to absorb shock and side loading while maintaining accurate, dependable operation in busy production and warehouse environments.

Seven current configurations cover compact 24 x 24 inch platforms through an 84 x 60 inch heavy-duty deck, with capacities from 500 to 20,000 lb. Adjustable leveling hardware simplifies installation, and supported models can be installed in a pit when floor space and traffic flow require a flush surface.
