The HSDC model is a full-featured, battery-powered hanging scale that incorporates push button tare, a sleep mode, and an auto shutoff mode to prolong battery life. Its aluminum alloy construction makes it lightweight and easy to use, but tough enough to stand up under conditions required of any portable hanging scale. Whether an industrial application, a curbside, site collection operation for recycling, or a supermarket, the HSDC series hanging scale is the true example of accurate portable weighing.
