Brecknell 6030 Washdown Portion Control Scale 5kg
£144.00(£172.80 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Brecknell 6030 is an electronic portion control scale built for commercial food preparation environments where accuracy, hygiene, and durability under daily use all matter. It operates as a straightforward weight-only device — no complex functions, no mode switching — which suits the pace of a working prep kitchen well.
Accurate portioning has a direct bearing on food cost control, and that relationship becomes more pronounced the higher the throughput. Whether the task is weighing protein portions before service, maintaining consistency across plated garnishes, or measuring dry ingredients for batch cooking, a scale that holds its calibration through a full day's prep and cleans down quickly at the end of it earns its bench space. The 6030 handles that role without complication.
The practical design reflects the realities of a washdown environment:
- IP67-rated body — protected against dust ingress and short-term water immersion
- Removable stainless steel platter for quick, thorough cleaning between tasks
- Stainless steel upper surfaces throughout all food-contact areas
- Compact footprint that sits on a prep bench without consuming useful workspace
- Weight-only display reduces the risk of errors during fast-paced service prep
The IP67 rating means the unit can be wiped down or rinsed as part of routine cleaning without concern about water ingress — a practical consideration in any kitchen running serious hygiene protocols. The removable platter keeps sanitising straightforward and reduces residue build-up around the weighing surface over time.
The 6030 is well suited to smaller independent kitchens, café and deli counters, butchery prep sections, and fishmongers — anywhere portions need to be controlled reliably without the need for more advanced weighing functions. For higher-volume operations or where greater platform capacity is needed, heavier-duty washdown models are available in the range.
If you want to talk through whether the capacity or platter size suits your prep requirements, the team is glad to help before you commit to an order.
Frequently asked questions
Is the 6030 suitable for use in a wet prep or fish prep environment?
Yes — the IP67 rating means the unit is protected against dust and can withstand short-term water immersion, making it a practical choice for wet prep areas, fish counters, and any environment subject to regular rinsing or splashing during cleaning. The removable stainless steel platter also makes sanitising between tasks straightforward.
Is a 5kg capacity enough for general kitchen prep use?
For most portioning tasks — protein cuts, plated garnishes, dry ingredient measurement, and deli counter work — a 5kg capacity is sufficient. Where you are regularly weighing larger batch quantities or heavier items in one go, it is worth considering a model with a higher platform capacity, and we can advise on the right option for your workflow.
How does the 6030 hold up to daily commercial use over time?
The stainless steel construction and IP67-rated housing are designed to withstand the moisture, cleaning chemicals, and physical handling typical of a busy prep kitchen rather than a controlled environment. Weight-only operation with no complex electronics also reduces the points of failure that can affect more feature-heavy scales in demanding conditions.
