Description
The Doran DS4050 Digital Infant Scale is the value model in the Doran infant line, built for tight budgets without giving up accuracy. It weighs infants to 44 lb with a built-in measuring tape for length to 22.5 in, so weight and length chart from one device. Small pediatric practices and clinics get a precision molded ABS scale with three-button operation that any staff member can run.
- Built-In Measuring Tape – Length measures to 22.5 in on the scale itself, which keeps the growth chart complete at one station.
- Three-Button Operation – On/Tare, Units, and Recall are the whole control set, so training takes minutes.
- Precision Molded ABS – The rugged platform and housing carry smooth edges and a tight fit throughout for infant safety.
- 4,000 Weighment Battery Life – Four AA batteries power extended service, and an AC adapter is included for the exam room.
Weight and Length for Infants on a Budget-Conscious Scale
The DS4050 platform measures 11 in by 23.5 in within a 15 in by 23.6 in footprint that fits standard exam surfaces. Weights show on a one inch LCD in lb:oz or kg, with graduations of 0.2 oz for tracking small changes between visits. The Recall control brings back the last reading, which helps when the charting happens after the baby leaves the scale. Battery and AC power options let the same scale serve a fixed exam room and occasional portable checks. For practices equipping a first pediatric room, this scale covers the core infant measurements at the lowest Doran price point.
