3.2 Intended use
Depending on the model, the scale is used to determine the weight of standing per-
sons, sitting persons and persons lying on a transportation stretcher and the weight
of lying babies in medical treatment rooms, as per model. The balance is suitable for
recognising, preventing and controlling illnesses.
The scales equipped with serial interface can only be connected to the
equipment compliant with EN60601-1 standard.
• On personal weighing scales, the person should step onto the centre of the
weighing platform and remain standing without moving, or on chair scales sit
in the centre of the seating surface and remain seated quietly.
• The whole wheel chair is to be pushed onto the weighing plate and/or the
electric wheel chair is to be moved automatically onto the weighing plate and
the wheels have to be fixed for weighing.
• When persons are weighed on the transportation stretcher, the whole trans-
portation stretcher must be pushed on the centre of the weighing plate and the
wheels have to be fixed for weighing.
As soon as a stable weighing value is reached the weighing value can be read.
The weighing scale is designed for continuous duty.
