1. Congratulations!
Your purchase of this integrated measure-
ment station seca 764 means you have a
high-precision and sturdy electronic body
height and body weight measuring instru-
ment. seca has been putting its experi-
ence at the service of health for over 150
years now, and as market leader in many
countries of the world, is always setting
new standards with its innovative develop-
ments for weighing and measuring.
The integrated seca 764 measurment
station is primarily used in accordance
with national regulations in hospitals, doc-
tor's practices and health care centers.
The measurement station is a medical
product falling under Class I and is cali-
brated to meet Precision Class III. The in-
tegration of electronic scales and
electronic height measurement in one
deivce means the seca 764 is particularly
suitable where weighing and measuring
must be carried out where little space is
available. The data measured can be con-
verted at the push of a button into a Body
Mass Index. The telescoping design used
for the height measurement unit as well as
the retractable head slide allows the de-
vice to be easily moved on the built-in cas-
tors.
The sturdy design and intelligent power
management system ensure a long period
of maintenance-free service so that the
device can be used for years to come. Op-
eration is easy with two large displays al-
lowing weight and height to be read out
simultaneously.
