Applications and Uses

The My Weigh BCS-40 Portable Briefcase Field Scale is used across a wide range of industries due to its portability and precision. Its rugged design allows it to handle both heavy materials and more delicate equipment with consistent accuracy.

Common applications include:

• Construction material weighing
• Aggregate, asphalt, and concrete-related field work
• Geotechnical and soil analysis
• Agricultural weighing (feed, livestock inputs, harvested game)
• Inventory tracking and logistics

These applications make it a dependable tool when used with other Construction Testing Equipment and mobile measurement instruments.

Durable Briefcase Design for Field Use

The scale is housed in a durable briefcase-style carrying case that securely holds the platform, remote display, and power accessories. The insert inside the case keeps all components firmly in place during transport. For added convenience, the scale can be operated directly inside the case, making it especially useful on uneven or confined job sites.

Professionals such as HVAC technicians use this scale for refrigerant measurement, while geotechnical engineers rely on it for soil and material analysis. It is also widely used in the aggregate industry for weighing asphalt, aggregates, and ready-mix concrete. These features make it a strong companion to other Material Testing Equipment used in the field.

Digital Remote Weight Display

The BCS-40 features a remote digital LCD display that connects to the scale with a four-foot cable. This design allows users to clearly view readings even when large items block the platform. The display minimizes movement for stable, accurate readings and shows essential information such as weight, selected mode, and battery status.

This feature is particularly valuable in professional environments where clear visibility is critical for accurate field and laboratory measurements.

Programmable Auto-Off & Power Control

The programmable auto-off function allows users to choose whether the scale powers down automatically or remains on until manually turned off. This prevents interruptions during extended weighing tasks and helps conserve battery life when working in the field.

Tare Function for Accurate Net Weights

The tare feature allows users to zero out the weight of containers, trays, or boxes before adding materials. This ensures that only the net weight is displayed, making it easier to weigh multiple items accurately and efficiently. This function is essential in both industrial weighing and field testing applications.

Warranty & Reliability

The My Weigh BCS-40 is backed by a 3-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty. In the event of a defect, the scale can be repaired or replaced through the manufacturer’s service center. Replacement timelines may vary based on product availability.

The scale has been positively reviewed for its reliability, accuracy, and durability in real-world field conditions.

Final Thoughts

The My Weigh BCS-40 Portable Briefcase Field Scale is a practical solution for professionals who need accurate, portable weighing in demanding environments. Its rugged design, remote display, and reliable performance make it a valuable addition to any field or construction testing toolkit.
