Description
The Doran DS5250 Eye Level Digital Physician Scale puts the readout at eye level so staff record weights without stooping. Its aluminum column houses a height rod that pulls up for adults and lowers for children, and the internal battery recharges by USB. Clinics that want one station for weight, height, and BMI get a 600 lb platform with the lowest step-up height in the market.
- Eye Level Indicator – The display sits at reading height on the column, which keeps posture natural during intake.
- Column Height Rod – The rod measures from 2 ft to 6 ft 6.7 in, so stature comes from the same platform visit.
- Rechargeable Internal Battery – At least 5,500 weighments run per charge, and refills happen through the included USB cable.
- Optional Assist Arms – An arms package adds grab support for patients who need it and aids portability.
Eye-Level Readout with a Column Height Rod
The DS5250 raises the DS5200 platform concept to eye level, adding a sturdy aluminum column with an integrated height rod. Touchless Start holds a weight up to 600 lb in as little as two seconds, and Weight Lock keeps the value steady through patient movement. Reweigh captures a second reading with the patient still standing on the platform, which verifies a doubtful first number in seconds. The rechargeable battery returns at least 5,500 weighments and refills in about six hours from a standard USB adapter. BMI runs from scroll-entered height on the indicator, and USB communications options move weight and BMI into the patient record.
