Frequently asked questions
What is the maximum weight capacity?
The Health o meter 2500 is engineered for high capacity, featuring two distinct maximum weight limits depending on how the scale is used:
- The primary Platform Capacity (for standing patients or those in a wheelchair) is a substantial 1,000 lb (454 kg).
- The integrated Foldaway Seat Capacity is 419 lb (190 kg).
Regardless of the configuration, the scale maintains high measurement precision with a resolution of 0.2 lb (0.1 kg).
Is the weighing platform spacious and accessible?
Yes, the platform is designed to be spacious and low-profile (2.4” high) to safely and comfortably accommodate patients, whether standing or seated in a wheelchair. The integrated ramp further ensures easy accessibility and optimal patient compliance.
Here are the specific dimensions:
- Platform Size: 29.4” x 28.25” (746 mm x 718 mm)
- Ramp Size: 28.25” x 9.9” (714 mm x 248 mm)
This generous sizing is fundamental to the scale’s versatile weighing modes.
Is the digital display highly visible?
Yes, the Health o meter 2500 is equipped with a modern, high-quality digital interface designed for optimal visibility and user comfort in clinical settings.
Key features of the display include:
- High-Contrast Screen: It utilizes a 1.5” (38 mm) High-Contrast Color TFT-LCD Screen, ensuring measurements are clear and easily readable, even in varied lighting conditions.
