CHAPTER 1:  INTRODUCTION TO THE TRANSCELL TC-200 SERIES DIGITAL COUNTING 

SCALE 

 
The Transcell Model TC-200 Series Digital Counting Scale is an easy to use, high-resolution 
counting scale featuring keyboard tare and unit weight entry. It is equipped with many useful 
features that are normally found on more expensive scale products, including memory 
accumulator and target values. 
 
The scale is available in four avoirdupois weight capacities and four metric weight capacities. 
Table 1-1 shows the TC-200 series product matrix. 
 
Prior to using the scale, please read this user’s guide carefully and completely.  Store the manual 
in a safe and convenient place so it will be available if you have questions concerning the 
operation of the scale.
