Introduction

The DMC-782 is a low cost coin counting scale that offers practical solutions for a full range of coin counting 

applications. Its internal counting resolution of 1/500,000 gives you maximum counting precision and accuracy. 

The backlit LCD display enables operators to easily see weights and quantities. The DMC-782 can also store a 

coin value, tare weight, and unit weight for 23 of your coins, tokens or other items and recalls nine of them by 

pressing a single pre-programmed key. When portability is required, choose the battery operation option of the 

DMC-782 for over 380 hours of continuous use in mobile workstations, outdoor applications, and rental fleets. 

The DMC-782 is rugged enough to operate reliably in many environments and withstand transport from one area 

of the plant to another or from one business to the next.
