Available in stainless steel and plastic casings, the Valor 2000 includes sizable LED panels on both the front and rear, ensuring food safety and offering puncture-resistant keypads, making it the best value scale for dry or washdown uses.
Applications
Weighing, Checkweighing (XW only)
Display
Dual light-emitting diode (LED) displays
Operation
AC adapter (included) or rechargeable battery (included)
Construction
ABS housing with stainless steel platform (PW), stainless steel housing and platform (XW), up-front level indicator
Design Features
The sturdy polycarbonate keypad offers protection from knives and other sharp instruments used in food preparation, processing, and portioning applications.

A unique IPX8 flow-thru design ensures that the NSF-certified Valor 2000 will drain moisture in the scale when used in wet conditions.

With less than half a second stabilization time and front and rear LED displays, multiple operators can efficiently utilize one scale for the same job. Auto-close power jack cover, transportation handle.
For food service and industrial environments requiring durable and accurate waterproof balances
The Pioneer Precision Balances provide versatile laboratory-level precision for routine weighing, while the Explorer Analytical Balances deliver advanced stabilization and touch-screen features for high-accuracy applications. For multi-user or larger-capacity needs in industrial or wet environments, the Scout Balances combine fast response with robust construction and easy cleaning capabilities.
