A&D SK-2000WP for food, seafood, bakery and wet packaging gives operators 2 kg capacity with 1 g readability and a washable IP65 stainless enclosure on battery power. It is a practical middle size for trays and bowls that exceed SK-1000WP capacity but do not require a 5 kg or 10 kg scale.
See the SK-2000WP full buyer guide for specifications. For washing, calibration and legal-for-trade checks, follow the SK-2000WP technical guide.
Seafood, meat and deli portions
Use food-safe trays for wet portions and keep product within 2 kg gross capacity. The one-gram display supports many portioning and package decisions. Clean between species, allergens and raw/ready-to-eat foods according to the sanitation program. Water resistance helps cleanup, but the scale remains IP65 rather than submersible.
Bakery and ingredient preparation
The 2 kg range works for dough pieces, fillings, toppings and many bowls. Tare the empty vessel, then add ingredients. For tiny additives below the useful one-gram process range, weigh separately on a finer balance. Keep flour and dust from accumulating beneath the pan even though the enclosure resists dust ingress.
Wet packaging and fill checks
SK-2000WP can perform manual package checks near wet production lines. It has no comparator lights or product-memory system, so operators read the value directly. Define acceptable limits in a controlled procedure and verify the scale with a known weight before high-value runs.
Battery-powered sanitation station
Battery operation avoids a live adapter connection near splashing and preserves IP65 compliance. Approximately 1,200 hours of alkaline life supports long shifts. If AC power is necessary, move the adapter/connection outside the wash area and recognize that the configured scale is no longer IP65.
Trade weighing
For price-by-weight sales, verify the delivered instrument is the approved SK-2000WPF version and complete required local service/sealing. The MNM listing’s shorter SK-2000WP title should be matched to the actual nameplate before the scale is used commercially.
