CAS PDN POS Scale — Trade-Approved ECR & POS Interface Scale for Australian Retail
The CAS PDN POS scale is a trade-approved checkout weighing scale built for Australian retailers, food service businesses, and hospitality operators. It connects directly to your Point of Sale (POS) or Electronic Cash Register (ECR) via USB or RS232 Serial, sending accurate weight data in real time to speed up transactions and eliminate manual entry errors.
Buy the CAS PDN from OnlyPOS for just $869.00 — a 20% saving off the RRP of $1,086.00. Free shipping Australia-wide. Both USB and RS232 Serial cables are included in the box.
Trade-Approved for Legal Commercial Weighing in Australia
In Australia, any scale used where goods are sold by weight must be trade approved under the National Measurement Act. Using a non-approved scale puts your business at risk of fines and enforcement action.
The CAS PDN is fully trade approved by the National Measurement Institute (NMI) — making it legal for use at delis, butchers, bakeries, seafood counters, and produce stores. Need documented compliance? Add an optional Certificate of Calibration for +$120. Note: certification may extend delivery by up to one week.
How the CAS PDN POS Scale Connects to Your System
This scale is designed specifically to interface with ECR and POS systems. Setup is straightforward:
- Connect the scale to your POS terminal or ECR via USB or RS232 Serial — both cables are included
- Place a product on the scale and the weight transfers to your POS automatically
- Your POS calculates the price using your pre-programmed per-kg pricing
- The transaction completes — no manual weight entry, fewer errors, faster service
The CAS PDN POS scale is compatible with a broad range of Australian POS platforms, including Lightspeed, MYOB, Vend, and other systems that support USB or serial scale input. Browse our full range of POS weighing scales or call 1300 183 340 for compatibility advice before ordering.
Three Capacity Options to Suit Your Counter
The CAS PDN POS scale is available in three configurations:
- 3/6kg (1g/2g readability): Ideal for small portions — specialty food counters, spices, and fine goods
- 6/15kg (2g/5g readability): The most popular all-round option for delis, seafood shops, and bakeries
- 15/30kg (5g/10g readability): Best for butchers, produce markets, and bulk food retailers
All three share an internal resolution of 1/60,000 for consistent, precise accuracy across the full weighing range.
Optional Remote Dual Pole Display
Add the PDN-R Remote Dual Pole Display (+$269) to show the weight reading to both the operator and the customer simultaneously. This improves transparency, builds customer trust, and reduces disputes at busy checkout counters. View our full range of interface scales if you need a different configuration.
