Medical Scales

  • Chair Scale

    The footrest lifts out of the way for safe seating and convenient transport of the scale, while the lift-away arms allow patients to access the scale from the side or front. Oversized wheels facilitate scale movement. Complete with a heavy-duty understructure, these scales come fully assembled and ready to use. Black vinyl upholstery complements the metal support structure.

  • Bed Lift Scale

    Designed for fast, accurate weighing, these electronic in-bed scales feature a flame retardant, antibacterial, self-deodorizing stretcher, which is placed under the patient and hydraulically lifted inches from the bed. The touch of a button gives a digital readout of the patient’s weight in pounds or kilograms. The reading doesn’t require subtractions to account for bed weight or bedding. Quickly gather data from an entire floor without wasted motion or patient discomfort!

  • Wheelchair Scale

    This incredibly popular, lightweight scale offers a wide range of versatility. It can be used with wheelchairs, straight-legged chairs, or as a stand-on scale, and its sloped ramps offer versatility by allowing entry from either side. The 6550′s digital weight indicator is the industry’s most advanced, featuring serial, USB, and optional wired and Wi-Fi Ethernet output, BMI calculation, yellow “quick keys” for basic weighing, a 350-degree rotating mounting bracket for viewing in all angles, and an easy-to-read blue LCD.

  • Pediatric/Infant Scale

    Detecto’s model 6745 Digital Baby Scale has a lock-in weight feature that compensates for typical newborn movement. When weight stabilizes, it is “locked in” and displayed. The infant can be removed, and its weight is retained. The scale features a built-in battery charger, battery or AC power, a built-in measuring tape, and a large 1.0” high-transflective LCD display. Serial output allows the scale to be connected to a printer or PC.

  • Medical and Digital Physician Scale

    Whether you require scales for personal use, rehabilitation, pediatrics, wheelchairs, or special bariatric patient needs, Detecto has the solution. In addition to individual and physician scales, Detecto offers a wide range of products, including step-on waste receptacles, glove dispensers, veterinary scales, dynamometers, dietary scales, and laundry scales.

    Detecto’s world-renowned eye-level mechanical weigh beam physician scales feature a heavy-duty solid, stable 10.5 x 14.5 inch (27 x 37 cm) platform and a dual-reading die-cast weigh beam that may be read from either side of the scale.

  • Professional Doctor Scales

    ProDoc digital scales feature heavy-duty stable bases, body mass index calculation, and highly visible 1-inch (25 mm) high LCDs equipped with a mounting bracket for a wall or desk station.
