Description

The Detecto Digital Chair Scale is designed for elderly, disabled, and dialysis patients so that they may comfortably be weighed in a chair that has lift-away arm rests, fold-up footrests, a sturdy steel construction, and plastic-molded seating.

Digital weighing is accurate and fast with the Detecto Chair Scale. The "LOCK/RELEASE" key allows health professionals to tend to patient prior to recording their weight. Weight can also be recorded directly to EHR/EMR through RS232 serial port. Powered by 6 AA batteries (not included) or AC adapter (#809161136203).
