Power Source
Powered by six D-cell batteries, the World Scale gives you the
power to use your scale in most trading situations.
PLU Options
The World Scale (WC30 only) offers 30 PLUs as standard –
including seven SpeedKeys which may be used with a “quick-set”
feature for top-selling items. These seven Speedkeys may be user-
defined. All 30 PLUs may be password-protected if set up in
Supervisor mode.
Capacity
The World Scale comes configured from the factory as a
30-lb x 0.005 resolution scale. For other capacities and resolutions
that can be configured, contact your local Hobart Representative.
