Wheelchair scale MWA (also verified for legal trade)
Wheelchair Scale MWA – Medical Personal Scale for Wheelchairs and Bariatric Patients
The MWA wheelchair scale is a high-quality, medically approved patient scale for professional use in clinics, care facilities, and medical centers. Thanks to its low profile and the platform that can be accessed from both sides, this wheelchair scale is ideal for safe and comfortable weighing of patients in wheelchairs.
The series is available in two versions:
- MWA 300K-1M – without handrail
- MWA 300K-1PM – with practical handrail and stand
Aside from the handrail, both models are technically identical.
Highest Precision for Medical Use
The wheelchair scale has Verification Class III (verification optional) and medical approval according to VO (EU) 2017/745 (MDR). This means it meets the highest requirements in healthcare and is optimally suited as a medical scale, hospital scale, or care scale.
The integrated spirit level enables precise leveling and ensures accurate measurement results.
Comfortable and Safe Weighing
The spacious weighing platform made of robust steel is not only designed for wheelchairs but is also excellently suited as an obesity scale or bariatric scale for patients with higher body weight.
The low platform with two access ramps allows easy access from both sides. On the MWA 300K-1PM model, the ergonomic handrail provides additional safety when entering or accessing the scale.
For transport or space-saving storage, the access ramps and handrails can be folded in with a few simple steps.
Intelligent Functions for Everyday Care
The integrated Hold function automatically determines a stable average value for restless patients standing or sitting and freezes it. This leaves enough time for patient care and the subsequent reading of the weight.
Additionally, the scale features a practical BMI function for determining:
- Underweight
- Normal weight
- Overweight
With the fine display, the readability can be temporarily increased by one decimal place to obtain particularly precise measurement results.
Flexible Data Transfer and Documentation
The standard RS-232 interface enables connection to printers or IT systems. In conjunction with the optional RS-232 cable and printer, GLP/ISO protocols including weight value, BMI, date, and time can be output. The print form also meets GLP/GMP-compliant requirements.
The scale can be operated both with mains power and with battery power. Optional rechargeable battery operation is also possible.
Typical Areas of Application
The medical wheelchair scale is ideal for:
- Hospitals and clinics
- Inpatient care facilities
- Outpatient facilities
- Dialysis centers
- Senior and nursing homes
- Rehabilitation facilities
- Facilities for people with disabilities
Optional Accessories (on request)
- Additional handrail/support bar for more safety
- Support bar set with foldable patient seat
With its robust construction, high measurement accuracy, and extensive functions, the MWA wheelchair scale is the ideal solution for professional patient weighing in medical and care settings.
