Facilitates safe weighing while standing, sitting or in a wheelchair - without having to be converted: when standing the patient is supported by a stable handrail, when sitting by an integrated folding seat and in a wheelchair by a large platform (80 x 85 cm) - the weight of the wheelchair is simply tared away by the pre-TARE function. Special attention has been given to making the scales easy to access, a stop barrier for the front wheels of the wheelchair is an additional safety feature. The weight is easy for patient and carer to read from the swivelling display mounted at a convenient level –one can select a higher display graduation or, alternatively, maximum capacity with two selectable weighing ranges. Reliable net weight determination in spite of added weight with the TARE and pre-TARE functions. Practical HOLD function for showing the weight even after the patient has left the scales. Precise results due to the damping system, standing safety due to non-slip rubber coating and handrail. Mobile with integrated transport castors. The seca 685 is well-suited for hospitals and clinics, particularly geriatrics, gynaecology, nephrology, orthopaedics, nursing homes, retirement homes and rehabilitation centres.
