The WT3000-iR is the stainless-steel flagship of the Berman WT3000 indicator family — NTEP Class III certified up to 10,000 divisions, IP68 / NEMA 4X washdown housing, and the precision A/D platform that scale builders specify for commercial truck scales, livestock systems, and concrete batch plants. Same proven electronics platform as the WT3000P (ABS housing) and WT3000-IR-AG cattle-scale kit, packaged in a rounded-corner stainless steel enclosure designed for high-cleanliness environments.
Built-in full-duplex RS232 handles printer and PC integration out of the box. Optional Bluetooth interface adds wireless data capture for tablet- or phone-based workflows. 6 V rechargeable internal battery means uninterrupted operation through power events — critical on truck scales, where every interrupted weighing is a workflow break.
The WT3000-iR is the stainless-steel-housing variant of the WT3000 family. Rounded corners minimize residue buildup; the all-stainless enclosure with sealed entry points handles direct high-pressure spray and full submersion to IP68 specification. Designed for installations where food-grade hygiene, harsh chemical exposure, or daily washdown is part of the routine.
IP68 / NEMA 4X stainless steel enclosure with rounded corners (residue-resistant). NTEP Class III certified for legal-for-trade applications in the US market.
The stainless-steel housing isn’t cosmetic — it’s the variant scale builders specify when the application demands daily washdown, contact with corrosive chemicals, or food-grade hygiene compliance. Six common deployment patterns:
Standard 4-cell warehouse and dispatch scales, stainless steel washdown platforms in food processing, pallet scales in pharmaceutical clean rooms. 8-cell support handles larger custom builds.
Pasture and chute-side livestock weighing with the optional Bluetooth interface for tablet-based herd-management workflows. Peak hold function captures stable weights from moving animals.
8 × 350 Ω cells across two summing junction boxes — standard pit-scale and above-ground truck-scale configuration. NTEP Class III certification is the prerequisite for US commercial truck weighing.
Aggregate hopper scales, cement weighers, and water meter integration. Resilient stainless housing handles concrete dust, water spray, and the abrasive environment of batching operations.
Sanitary scale terminals in meat processing, dairy, beverage, and bakery operations where USDA / FDA wash protocols require corrosion-resistant equipment.
Active-ingredient dosing scales, raw-material receiving, and finished-goods checkweighing in environments where solvent or cleaning-agent exposure is routine.
The WT3000-iR ships with a built-in full-duplex RS232 port handling printer integration, PC data export, and serial-attached remote displays. Print accumulating ticket formats with date, time, gross weight, and net weight directly to Epson TM-U295 or Zebra TLP2844 / CG420t thermal printers — useful for buyer transactions on commercial truck and livestock scales.
Optional Bluetooth 4.0 BLE interface adds wireless data capture for paired tablet or phone applications — livestock workflows, batching apps, mobile inspection. The built-in 6 V internal battery means the wireless link survives power events without dropping mid-transaction.

Same Berman electronics platform, three housings / market variants. WT3000-iR (this product): stainless steel IP68 / NEMA 4X, NTEP certified, US market. WT3000P: ABS plastic IP68, NTEP certified, US market. WT3000-ABR: ABS plastic IP68, Brazilian market (Portuguese panel and Brazil power plug), not NTEP certified. Choose by housing material and regional certification needs.
Yes — NTEP Class III, up to 10,000 divisions. Certified for legal-for-trade applications including commercial truck weighing, livestock sales, and any transaction where the weight reading is the basis of a sale price.
Stainless steel for daily washdown environments (food / beverage / dairy / pharmaceutical), corrosive-chemical exposure (concrete batching, plating, ag chemicals), and any installation where USDA / FDA sanitation rules apply. ABS for general industrial use where the housing won’t see direct chemical contact and the lower price point matters. Both share the IP68 rating and the same electronics.
Up to 8 cells at 350 Ω in parallel, or up to 16 cells at 700 Ω — same effective impedance to the 5 VDC excitation circuit. For larger arrays, use a summing junction box and feed the J-box output to the indicator as a single signal.
Direct serial integration with Epson TM-U295 and TM-U220 dot-matrix, plus Zebra TLP2844 and CG420t thermal printers. Tickets include date, time, gross, and net weight in accumulating or per-transaction format. The WT-RODO truck scale software adds full ticket-management on the PC side.
Yes — the 6 V rechargeable internal battery is sized for power-event ride-through, not full-day off-mains operation. For outdoor truck scales in remote locations with intermittent power, the battery survives short outages without losing the in-progress weighing. For full off-grid operation, consider the WT3000-IR-AG cattle scale kit instead — that has a 40-hour extended battery in an IP65 carry case.
