Detecto's medical scales are designed to prioritize patient safety and convenience for medical facilities, and the GP Series is no exception. The weighing platform has a textured, high-traction surface that helps protect patients from accidental falls and injuries, and accommodates all manner of patients with a weight capacity of 600 pounds. These scales sport an extra-large 18 x 14-inch platform to ensure patients are safe and comfortable during the weighing procedure. Additionally, a bubble level located on the front of the platform ensures the scale is resting on a flat surface, further increasing security for patients standing on the scale.
The integral carrying handle located on the front of the scale allows for convenient transport throughout a medical facility. A medical professional can easily hoist the scale with one hand and take it with them as they go from room to room weighing patients as they go. These scales can also be used at home if needed, thanks to their compact design. No installation is required, and users can easily travel with them as well.
The Lightweight Portable Scales are EMR/EHR ready, with USB, serial, and optional wired or Wi-Fi Ethernet connections. These medical scales can be powered by 6 C batteries (not included with purchase) or an optional AC adapter. The Lightweight Portable Scale is covered by a limited one-year warranty from the manufacturer, with a 90-day warranty on parts and service.
