Description
The Doran DS6150 Remote Indicator Scale separates the readout from the platform, so the display sits on a tabletop or wall instead of the floor. Its heavy gauge steel base is covered edge to edge with non-skid material, and Weight Lock holds the reading through patient movement. Physician offices, acute care units, and visiting nurses get a 500 lb scale that places the indicator wherever the workflow needs it.
- Remote Indicator Placement – The indicator mounts on a wall bracket or rests on a tabletop, which frees the readout from the platform.
- Heavy Gauge Steel Base – The steel platform is built for long service and carries a full non-skid surface for patient safety.
- 25,000 Weighment Battery Life – Six AA batteries run about 25,000 weighments, which stretches service intervals for years.
- WiFi Configuration Available – Choose the WiFi build to send weight and BMI to the record without a cable run.
A Two-Piece Scale That Puts the Display Where Staff Stand
The DS6150 pairs a low-profile 15 in by 12 in platform with a separate indicator that can be handheld, tabletop placed, or wall mounted. Capacity runs to 500 lb in 0.2 lb graduations on a one inch LCD, with BMI calculated from scroll-entered height. USB and RS-232 ports are standard, so weight and BMI move into an EMR or EHR system without manual transcription. Units Lock fixes the display in lb or kg, and Reweigh captures a second reading while the patient stays on the platform. An included AC adapter covers stationary use, while battery power supports visiting nurse work away from outlets.
