1.1 Ov e rview
The MAS-P shown below consists of a sheeted animal cage suspended by four S-type load cells through a cam style
On-Board
lift system on top a portable base frame. In transport mode, the scale system is locked down, protecting
the load cells from damage during transport. The scale is raised to the weigh mode using a lever and cam system. A
digital indicator is connected to the scale to display the weight.
The
MAS-P can be used on any firm surface up to 7% grade (4-degree slope) and has a low deck height (6'') for
easy step in.
