B-TEK

B-TEK is a manufacturer of industrial weighing equipment, including load cells, bench scales, floor scales, and related accessories. The company is known for producing a range of shear beam and single point load cells, as well as complete scale systems designed for use in industrial environments such as manufacturing, warehousing, and process control. B-TEK products are built to meet specific application requirements, with models available in various capacities, platform sizes, and environmental protection ratings. For example, their bench scales are offered with IP54 or IP66 ratings, indicating resistance to dust and water ingress, and feature stainless steel or carbon steel weighing surfaces. Load cells from B-TEK include double ended shear beam types with IP67 protection, suitable for harsh conditions. The product line also includes accessories like threaded adapters, eye nuts, and rod end ball joints, which facilitate integration into existing weighing systems. 3G Electric supplies a selection of B-TEK products, including bench scales with remote or column-mounted indicators, floor scales, and load cell accessories. These items are available with RS-232 connectivity for data transfer, and specifications such as readability (e.g., 10 g or 50 g) and weight capacities (e.g., 100 lb to 5,000 lb) are clearly defined. The range covers both imperial and metric units, allowing for use in different regional standards. B-TEK equipment is typically employed in applications requiring accurate weight measurement for inventory management, quality control, or material handling. The build standards, such as IP ratings and material choices, provide guidance for selecting appropriate models for specific environmental conditions, such as wet or dusty areas. 3G Electric supports the line by offering a catalog of B-TEK products with detailed specifications, enabling engineers and procurement specialists to compare options and select suitable equipment for their operations.

Common Applications

  • Manufacturing — B-TEK double ended shear beam load cells (e.g., 5223-B10) for tank and hopper weighing in process industries.
  • Warehousing — B-TEK floor scales (e.g., 899-300055) for pallet weighing and inventory management.
  • Food processing — B-TEK stainless steel bench scales (e.g., BT-B-1212C-250-I-2) for portion control and ingredient weighing.
  • Quality control — B-TEK bench scales with column-mounted indicators (e.g., NB-BC-1882-100-SP-COMPLETE) for checkweighing in production lines.
  • Chemical handling — B-TEK IP66-rated bench scales (e.g., BT-B-1818S-100-I-2) for weighing in wet or corrosive environments.
  • Material handling — B-TEK load cell accessories (e.g., rod end ball joints) for integrating load cells into conveyor or lifting systems.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about B-TEK from 3G Electric.

What IP ratings are available on B-TEK bench scales?

B-TEK bench scales are available with IP54 and IP66 ratings. IP54 provides protection against limited dust ingress and water splashes, suitable for indoor use in dry or moderately wet conditions. IP66 offers a higher level of protection against powerful water jets and dust, making it appropriate for harsher environments like washdown areas. The specific rating depends on the model, as seen in products like the BT-B-1212C-250-I-2 (IP54) and BT-B-1818S-100-I-2 (IP66).

What types of load cells does B-TEK manufacture?

B-TEK manufactures double ended shear beam load cells, such as the 5223-B10 series, which are designed for high-capacity weighing applications. These load cells have an IP67 rating, indicating protection against temporary immersion in water. B-TEK also produces single point load cells for smaller scales, though specific models are not listed in the current catalog. The load cells are available with various thread sizes, like 1/2"-14, and capacities up to 100,000 lb or more, depending on the model.

What connectivity options are available on B-TEK bench scales?

B-TEK bench scales typically feature RS-232 connection ports for data communication. This allows the scales to interface with computers, printers, or other data logging equipment. The RS-232 port is standard on models like the BT-B-1212C-250-I-2 and NB-BC-1882-100-SP-COMPLETE. Some models may also support other protocols, but RS-232 is the primary option listed in the specifications provided by 3G Electric.

What materials are used in B-TEK bench scale platforms?

B-TEK bench scale platforms are available in stainless steel or carbon steel. Stainless steel platforms, as seen in models like BT-B-1212C-250-I-2 and BT-B-1818S-100-I-2, offer corrosion resistance and are suitable for food processing or chemical environments. Carbon steel platforms, such as those on the NB-BC-1882-100-SP-COMPLETE, are more economical and used in general industrial applications where corrosion is less of a concern.

What is the readability range for B-TEK bench scales?

B-TEK bench scales offer readability options ranging from 10 g to 50 g, depending on the model. For example, the BT-B-1818S-100-I-2 has a readability of 10 g, while the BT-B-1212C-250-I-2 has a readability of 50 g. Readability is also provided in other units, such as 0.02 lb or 2 oz, allowing for flexibility in measurement systems. Higher readability is typically associated with lower capacity scales.

What accessories are available for B-TEK load cells?

B-TEK offers a range of load cell accessories, including threaded adapters, eye nuts, and rod end ball joints. The threaded adapter (MPN 985-0084) has a 1/2"-20 thread and includes two jam nuts. The eye nut (MPN 985-0002) has a 5/8"-11 thread. The rod end ball joint (MPN 985-0070) has a 3/4"-16 thread and includes a jam nut. These accessories are used for mounting and connecting load cells in various configurations.
