The WS Compact Scale is a straightforward, durable scale for everyday weighing and counting tasks. ABS housing and a grade 304 stainless steel pan hold up to daily industrial or lab use, and a bright backlit display with 20mm-tall digits keeps results easy to read.

Simple to use, built to last

Display and controls

The backlit LCD is clearly visible in most lighting, and dual-purpose keys switch between standard weighing and parts counting. An audible overload alarm and low-battery indicator warn you before something goes wrong.

Power

The WS3 and WS6 run on 2 x AA batteries (not included). The WS-Plus 30 is different: it has a built-in rechargeable battery you top up over USB-C, so there's nothing to buy or replace.

Where you'll actually use it

  • General laboratories and workshops
  • Warehouse and light industrial weighing
  • Food service and portioning, on the lower-capacity WS3/WS6 models
  • Inventory and parts counting, using the built-in counting mode

Choosing your capacity

The WS3 weighs up to 3000g at 0.5g readability, the WS6 up to 6000g at 1g, and the WS-Plus 30 up to 30000g at 1g. Choose based on the heaviest single item you expect to weigh regularly, and factor in the WS-Plus 30's rechargeable battery if you need it away from mains power.

Care Instructions

Wipe the housing with a clean, damp cloth. Do not submerge the scale in water or use harsh chemical solvents. The stainless steel pan is removable for easy cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions

What batteries does the WS scale take?

The WS3 and WS6 run on 2 AA batteries, which aren't included in the box. The WS-Plus 30 is different — it has a built-in rechargeable battery you top up over USB-C, so there's nothing to buy or replace.

Can I count parts with this scale, not just weigh them?

Yes, it has a built-in counting mode alongside normal weighing, so you can use it to count small identical parts by weight as well as check total mass.

How precise is the WS-Plus 30 compared to the WS3 and WS6?

The WS-Plus 30 reads to 1g at a 30kg capacity, while the WS3 reads down to 0.5g (3kg capacity) and the WS6 to 1g (6kg capacity). Pick the model based on how fine a reading you need versus how much weight you're putting on it.

Is the WS scale suitable for a wet or dusty work area?

The housing is ABS plastic with a stainless steel pan, which handles everyday knocks and spills reasonably well. For a washdown or harsh environment, one of Adam's dedicated washdown scale ranges would be a safer bet.
