Stop Guessing, Start Growing: Why the Gallagher W-0 is the Smart Farmer’s First Scale

The Flow-Through Advantage: Fast, Stress-Free Sheep Weighing

For sheep farmers, time is money, and animal stress is a production killer. You need to know your flock’s weights for drenching, breeding, and sending lambs to market, but slow, inaccurate scales can turn a quick job into an all-day ordeal.

That’s where the Gallagher W-0 Weigh Scale excels. It is the perfect entry-level system designed specifically for the flow-through or walk-through scale setup—ideal for quickly processing animals like sheep, one after the other, with minimal fuss.

Here are the factual features that make the W-0 the backbone of a smarter, faster weighing session:

Key Features That Deliver Performance (The Facts):

Instant, Accurate Weight Lock (Automatic Mode)

The Gallagher W-0 defaults to AUTO (Automatic) mode, making it perfect for your walk-through crate or squeeze chute.

How it Works: As soon as the sheep enters and settles for a moment, the W-0 automatically determines an accurate weight, locks the reading, and displays it clearly on its backlit LCD screen.
Benefit: No more waiting for a wobbly animal to stand still. This feature drastically speeds up the processing line, keeping your flock moving smoothly and reducing stress for both the farmer and the animal. It also offers Manual and Fine weighing modes for full control or weighing small loads like fleeces.

Rugged and Ready for the Farm A farm scale needs to be tougher than farm life. The W-0 is built to withstand the harshest environments.

Durability: The unit is robust and features heavy-duty load bar connectors. It carries an IP66 environmental protection rating, meaning it is fully dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets.
Installation: The W-0 is ideal for permanent or temporary installation, coming complete with a mounting bracket and hardware.

Power That Lasts the Day (and More)

Don’t let a dead battery hold up your vital work. The W-0’s internal rechargeable battery provides long-lasting power, operating for up to 30 hours on a single charge. This exceptional run time ensures you can complete even your longest weighing sessions without needing to find a power outlet.

Data Management Simplified with Bluetooth

The W-0 is not just a display—it’s your connection to smart farming.

Seamless Data Flow: Using Bluetooth connectivity, the W-0 sends weight readings straight to the free Gallagher Animal Performance mobile app (available for iOS and Android) in real-time.
Track Growth: In the app, you can easily record individual animal weights, monitor growth rates, and track performance sessions. You can also connect a handheld EID reader straight to the app to link weights to individual animal IDs for lifelong performance tracking (additional subscription fees apply for Animal ID data management).

The W-0 Difference: Dependable Performance

This entry-level weigh head is the ideal solution for farmers wanting to start measuring livestock performance. It is designed for use in walk-through systems, supporting a maximum system capacity of 2000kg when paired with compatible load bars (load bars are sold separately, with optional lengths available). Backed by a strong 2-Year Warranty, the Gallagher W-0 offers the reliability and accuracy you need to make informed decisions about feeding, drenching, and selling your stock.

If you are ready to move past guesswork and start making informed decisions based on accurate data, the Gallagher W-0 Weigh Scale is the practical, cost-effective solution you’ve been looking for.
