Hardy Floor Scales
1
INTRODUCTION
Hardy Floor Scales are designed for applications that
require a low profile weighing surface with high com-
mercial accuracy and reliability. The Hardy Floor
Scales can be configured with a complete range of
accessories. Rugged Hardy Floor Scales are rated for
250,000 load cycles under normal loading condi-
tions.* They can be sized or configured to fit any floor
scale application.

The typical platform height is 3.375 inches (8.6 cm).
Each corner can be adjusted an additional .275”
(7mm) to compensate for a non-level floor or pit
mounting surface.
Hardy Floor Scales do not have bearings, levels or
moving parts that can be damaged or wear out. The
active elements of the floor scales are four precision
Hardy load sensors, mounted in all four corners of the
scale platform. The unique Blind Hole Load Introduc-
tion technology allows the foot to move to compen-
sate for uneven floors. This ensures that the load
forces are always applied to the load sensor at pre-
cisely the same point regardless of where the load is
placed on the scale. This ensures you will get accurate
and repeatable weighments.
Each platform load sensor is initially certified for use
in a C2
®
Second Generation Calibration system.
