Description
The Invacare Reliant RLS6 Scale weighs the patient during a normal lift transfer, so staff get an accurate weight without a separate move to a bed or chair scale. Its 600 lb capacity matches the heaviest Reliant lifts.
- 600 lb (272 kg) weighing capacity
- Mounts between the lift boom and the sling
- Digital display with simple keypad operation
- Works with Invacare Reliant 450 and 600 lifts
- Two-year limited warranty
Weights drive dosing, nutrition and care planning, yet weighing a non-ambulatory patient is often the transfer everyone postpones. A lift scale removes the extra transfer entirely, because the weighing happens inside a lift that was already scheduled. The RLS6 hangs on the lift and reads the patient weight on a clear digital display, with controls for zeroing the sling and locking the reading. Its 600 lb capacity covers the full Reliant range, including bariatric patients on the Reliant 600. For facilities tracking weights for clinical or regulatory reasons, it turns a skipped task into a recorded one.

Why Choose the Invacare Reliant RLS6 Scale?
Bed scales and extra transfers cost staff time every single week. A lift scale pays for itself by making the weight part of a transfer that already happens.
- No extra transfer – the patient is weighed inside a scheduled lift, so staff skip a move that risks skin and dignity, which raises weighing compliance
- Full-range capacity – the 600 lb rating covers bariatric patients on the Reliant 600, so one scale serves the whole lift fleet, which simplifies purchasing
- Made for Reliant lifts – it is Invacare own scale for its own lifts, so fit at the boom is designed rather than adapted, which keeps readings steady
Frequently Asked Questions
How much weight can the RLS6 measure?
It measures up to 600 lb, or 272 kg, which matches the capacity of the Invacare Reliant 600 heavy-duty lift.
Which lifts does it fit?
It is made for Invacare Reliant lifts, including the Reliant 450 and Reliant 600 full body lifts.
Does the sling weight affect the reading?
No. The scale has a zero function, so staff zero out the sling before lifting the patient and read the patient weight only.
What warranty does it have?
The RLS6 carries a two-year limited warranty.
Why weigh with a lift scale instead of a bed scale?
The weighing happens during a transfer that is already planned, so there is no extra move for the patient and no separate scale to store and maintain.
