Virtually indestructible and highly accurate carbon steel weighing platforms designed for non-washdown applications in manufacturing, agriculture, warehousing and recycling. Configure the SilverBack with your analog instrument of choice to create a bench scale perfectly suited for your weighing application and budget

Fairbanks SilverBack is an incredibly rugged bench scale platform designed for industrial, non-washdown weighing applications. It features a super heavy-duty carbon steel base that has the heft and stability to handle the daily rigors of industrial environments with sustained accuracy. SilverBack platforms are a reliable and cost-effective solution for non-food grade applications in which the scale doesn’t require high water ingress ratings and full stainless construction for washdown. Platforms are sold individually or can be paired with an instrument pillar and the analog instrument best suited for your weighing application.

SilverBack platforms feature a durable brushed stainless steel shroud that simply lifts off to access the scale base

• Most likely the Industry’s most durable platform design
• Compatible with any analog instrument
• Made in USA with fast lead times
• IP65/IP66 rated load cells
• Competitively priced

• Super heavy-duty construction
• Shock-resistant neoprene shroud supports ensure accurate loading anywhere on the platform and help protect the load cell while increasing overall stability.
• High impact black powder coat paint resists abuse and corrosion.
• Adjustable, rubber leveling feet provide optimal surface grip and stability for accurate weighments.
• Aluminum-alloy load cell can withstand an overload of up to 150 percent of scale capacity

Instrument Pillars
Pillars come in 12 in and 24 in heights and feature a stainless steel cover that easily lifts off in order to run instrument cables down to the platform connections. This feature allows cabling to be both hidden and protected.

Tool-Free Pillar Attachment
SilverBack platforms feature a unique snap-in-place pillar mount design that enables pillar attachment without cracking open a tool box. Simply align the pillar prongs with the built-in slots, squeeze, and snap in place.
Asymetrical platforms feature pillar prong slots along two sides of the base

Rock solid construction for years of operational payback
The SilverBack’s load cell is housed between a rock solid carbon steel lower plate and hefty 4-legged "spider" top plate. This unique design isolates the cell from overloads and shocks, ensures balanced load distribution, and promotes long scale life

NTEP and Measurement Canada approved for use in commercial weighing applications.

FB1200 Indicator info

Durable instrument for industrial weighing applications with analog floor scales, bench scales, livestock scales, and weighing assemblies. NTEP approved and available in a NEMA 4X or NEMA 4 enclosure

Fairbanks Scales FB1200 is a flexible, economical solution for industrial weighing applications. With a range of features and multiple communication options, the FB1200 can fulfill a variety of customer needs at a highly competitive price. Among basic instruments on today’s market, the FB1200 is unique in that it has a number of “beyond basic” functions and features, including digital inputs and outputs that simplify its integration with other aspects of an operation, such as a PLC.

• Need to view or print Gross Weights.
• Need to stream weight to a PC over a serial port.
• Use Piece Counting and Accumulation for inventory control.
• Use Checkweighing for quality control.
• Use Peak Hold for stress testing materials

• The FB1200 NEMA 4 resin alloy enclosure is resistant to dust and water ingress and can stand up to the rigors of modern factory or warehouse operations.
• The FB1200 NEMA 4X stainless steel enclosure has additional corrosion protection features and is the obvious choice for environments that process caustic materials.

• Compatible with any manufacturers’ analog floor, bench or tank scales.
• Durable, quality construction and engineering at economic price.
• Features drop-and-drag interface for customizing printed tickets.
• NTEP and MC approved for legal-for-trade applications.
• Three-zone product checkweighing.
• Digital I/O for easy process integration.
• Use with or as a remote display.
• Desktop/wall mount bracket included

• Piece Counting - The FB1200 piece counting function allows users to quickly manage inventory of materials, large or small. Weigh any quantity sample size and the FB1200 will automatically scale the quantity to additional weight.
• Accumulation - Accumulate multiple weighments by gross weight, net weight, or piece count, to manage inventory.
• PEAK HOLD (stress test) - Use the FB1200 to “stress test” materials, holding the highest weight reached even after it is removed.
• Livestock Filter - The FB1200 livestock filter can find the weight of moving loads (such as cattle) by filtering the input and calculating a true weight.

1. ON/OFF — One touch to power up or down. UNITS — Six selectable units (lb, kg, oz, g, T, t) and one programmable unit for lb-oz or other custom measure. Units key also used with piece count and accumulation features.
2. B/G / NET — One-push selection from Gross weight to Net weight. Also used during accumulation and piece count operations and to set sleep timer.
3. ZERO — Quickly zero off weight on the scale.
4. PRINT — Custom or standard print formats. This key is also used to set clock format, time and date, and during Peak Hold operations.
5. TARE — Deducts container weight from the total weight.
6. F1 — Additional application-specific functions are assigned to the F1 key.

PC Utility
The FB1200 has an easy-to-use PC Utility designed with OEMs in mind, allowing rapid configuration and calibration processes. An optical communication port located on the front of the FB1200 allows for Utility connection without the need to open the enclosure. Changes made through the FB1200 Viewer are fast and take effect immediately, allowing for real time instrument configuration.
