Frequently asked questions
Does the scale support a high weight capacity?
Yes, the Health o meter 1100 Digital Platform Scale is specifically designed for high-capacity use in demanding clinical and hospital environments.
Key specifications for weight measurement are:
- Maximum Capacity: The scale supports patients up to 1,000 lb (454 kg).
- Resolution: It provides highly accurate measurements down to 0.2 lb (0.1 kg).
This robust capacity is paired with features designed for stability and comfort, including a low-profile platform and integrated ‘live’ handrails that patients can safely hold onto during measurement.
What are the dimensions of the stable low-profile platform?
The low-profile platform is engineered for patient safety and stability, minimizing the step-up height required for use. It is integrated with live handrails for secure support.
Key dimensions of the platform are:
- Platform Surface (W x D): 22 inches x 15.75 inches (559 mm x 400 mm)
- Platform Height: 2.5 inches (64 mm)
Does this platform scale calculate BMI?
Yes, the Health o meter 1100 Digital Platform Scale is equipped with Body Mass Index (BMI) calculation, which is crucial for comprehensive patient assessments in a clinical setting.
This scale offers a full range of advanced operational functions, all easily accessible via the high-contrast color TFT-LCD screen:
- Measurement Control: Includes Zero, Tare, Pre-Tare, Hold/Release, Reweigh, and Recall functions for accurate data capture.
- Unit Management: Supports LB/KG Conversion and features the Everlock option, which allows the scale to be permanently locked into either LB or KG mode for safety and consistency.
- User Interface: Features an on-screen help menu to guide users through operating functions, along with Auto Zero and Auto Off capabilities.
Does the scale feature a high-contrast display?
Yes, the Health o meter 1100 features a highly advanced display system designed for excellent readability and caregiver convenience. It utilizes several key features to enhance usability:
- High-Contrast Screen: The scale is equipped with a 1.5-inch (38 mm) High-Contrast Color TFT-LCD Screen, ensuring measurements are easily readable in various clinical lighting conditions.
- Pivoting Display Head: For caregiver convenience and privacy, the display head pivots.
- On-Screen Help: An integrated on-screen help menu guides users through operating functions, streamlining the weighing process.
Does the scale offer dual power sources?
Yes, the Health o meter 1100 provides dual power options for maximum operational flexibility:
- AC Power: The scale operates using the included 100 - 240 V adapter.
- Battery Power: For portability or as a power backup, the unit can also run on 6 D batteries (batteries are not included with the scale).
Does the scale offer advanced connectivity?
Yes, the Health o meter 1100 scale is designed for easy data integration into various healthcare settings, supporting efficient data transfer to computers, EMR software, or other electronic devices.
The connectivity options include:
- Standard USB Port: Provided for direct interfacing with other devices.
- Optional Wireless Capability: Configurations are available with optional Pelstar wireless technology for flexible, cable-free data transfer.
Do the "live" handrails enhance patient stability?
Yes, the Health o meter 1100 features “live” handrails specifically designed to enhance patient safety and stability during the weighing process. This functionality is a major selling point:
- Enhanced Stability: The handrails allow patients to hold on securely for balance, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience, especially for bariatric or unsteady patients.
- Uncompromised Accuracy: The scale maintains its precise resolution (0.2 lb / 0.1 kg) and accurate measurement even while the patient is utilizing the handrails for support.
- Accessibility: This feature works in conjunction with the scale’s low-profile platform (just 2.5 inches high) to minimize the required step-up, making the unit easy to access.
Does this scale feature a permanent unit lock?
Yes, the Health o meter 1100 Digital Platform Scale features a permanent unit locking option called Everlock.
This function, also known as LB/KG Lock Out, is designed to enhance safety and standardization in clinical environments:
- It allows the user to permanently lock the display to measurements exclusively in pounds (LB) or kilograms (KG).
- This prevents accidental switching of units during patient weighing, ensuring accurate and consistent data capture across the facility.
How do the 'live' handrails enhance stability?
The “live” handrails are a critical feature designed to ensure accurate measurement while maximizing patient stability.
- Secure Support: They allow the patient to hold on securely for comfort and balance while standing on the low-profile platform. This is especially beneficial for bariatric patients or those who require assistance.
- Measurement Accuracy: Because the handrails are “live,” a patient can utilize them for stability without transferring weight in a way that negatively impacts the scale’s high measurement resolution (0.2 lb / 0.1 kg) or the final weight reading.
Does the low platform ensure easy access?
Yes, the Health o meter 1100 is specifically designed for enhanced patient safety and accessibility, particularly for bariatric patients. It features a low platform height which minimizes the step-up required, making it easier and safer for patients to access. The scale also includes “live” handrails that patients can securely hold onto, further ensuring stability during the weighing process.
