The Adam Equipment Gladiator GGS 15aM is a stainless steel bench scale built for wet, washdown environments where weight also has to be legally accurate. It weighs up to 6 kg (15 lb) with 1 g (0.002 lb) readability on a 250 × 250 mm stainless steel pan. The scale is IP68-rated, so it can be cleaned thoroughly between batches. Adam Equipment lists the Gladiator M range with Measurement Canada, NTEP and NSF approvals.
It suits operations that sell by weight and need a scale that survives daily cleaning: meat, cheese, bakery and produce processors, food and beverage QA/QC, and pharmaceutical and industrial production areas. The colour-changing backlit display makes checkweighing fast. The internal rechargeable battery lets you use the scale away from a power outlet. The GGS 15aM is available in Canada from Cambridge Environmental Products with CAD pricing and Canadian purchasing support.
Adam Equipment lists the Gladiator M range as approved by Measurement Canada (Canada) and NTEP (USA). A trade-approved scale is designed to the requirements for use when weight determines the price of goods bought or sold. See the FAQ for what Canadian trade use involves.
IP68 means the scale is dust-tight and protected against water. The indicator is sealed, and the connectors on the underside are also IP68-rated. You can clean the scale properly in food and pharmaceutical areas without the water damage that ends the life of many bench scales.
The pan, base and housing are stainless steel, and the pan is grade 304. They resist corrosion from frequent cleaning and have no painted surfaces to chip into product.
Set high and low limits, and the backlit display changes colour to show under, within or over target. Operators can pass or reject a pack at a glance instead of reading digits, which speeds up portioning and pack checks. The 40 mm digits are easy to read from a distance.
An internal rechargeable lead-acid battery runs the scale for up to 90 hours between charges. You can move it between stations, or use it where plugging in near water is impractical. A 12 VDC adapter is also included for mains power.
The tactile keypad is sealed against dirt and spills. Large colour-coded keys let staff find the right function quickly, even with gloves on.
The scale also does parts counting, percentage weighing, check counting, display hold and dynamic/animal weighing. Dynamic weighing uses filtering to stabilise readings for moving loads such as live shellfish or small animals.
Adam Equipment backs the GGS 15aM with a 5-year warranty.

Adam Equipment lists the Gladiator M range, including the GGS 15aM, with Measurement Canada approval. To use any scale in trade in Canada, the device must be an approved model and must also be inspected before use. This inspection is done by Measurement Canada or an authorised service provider. Requirements can vary by sector, so contact Cambridge for the approval details and help arranging inspection.
IP68 means the scale is fully protected against dust and against water ingress beyond splashes and jets. On the GGS 15aM, both the sealed indicator and the underside connectors are IP68-rated, so it can be cleaned thoroughly in food and pharmaceutical environments.
