The Physician's Beam Scale, the scale you find in your physician's office, provides unmatched accuracy and durability demanded in the medical profession.   The 402KL has all the features of the 402LB with the addition of patented rotating poise bar engraved in pounds on one side and kilograms on the other side (click here to see close-up image).  The 402KL also comes standard with steel measuring rod for height measurements.  Heavy duty steel base and lever system.  DURA-TOP platform cover is easy to clean.  Easy to assemble.

Measures weight up to 500 pounds in 1/4-pound increments or 220 kilogram in 100 gram increments (most household scales are accurate only to the pound).  A large, easy-to-read measuring bar with engraved pound increments make weights easier to read.  Unlike many home models, it operates precisely when used on carpeting.  Non-slip, vinyl-covered platform measures 10 1/2" by 14 inches.  Hardened steel pivots and bearings; heavy-gauge enameled steel base and upright.  The base alone weights only 21 lbs.  The entire unit weighs 50 lbs and ships via Ground for $40.00.

To use the counterweights it works like this:

For 150 lb counterweight only: If the weight of the patient is between 350 lbs and 424 lbs

1. Place the large (lower) poise weight in the 250 lb notch.
2. Hang 150 lb counterweight in notch on lower poise bar between 50 lbs and 100 lbs.
3. Weigh the patient normally using the small and large poise weights.
4. To arrive at the patient’s total weight, add the weights registered on the small and large poises and add 88 lbs. Refer to the enclosed quick reference guide to arrive at the total weight.

If the weight of the patient is between 425 lbs and 500 lbs

1. Place the large (lower) poise weight in the 250 lb notch.
2. Hang 150 lb counterweight in notch on lower poise bar between 150 lbs and 200 lbs.
3. Weigh the patient normally using the small and large poise weights.
4. To arrive at the patient’s total weight, add the weights registered on the small and large poises and add 150 lbs. Refer to the enclosed quick reference guide to arrive at the total weight.

For 40 kg counterweight (402KL only): If the weight of the patient is between 160 kg and 180 kg

1. Place the large (lower) poise weight in the 120 kg notch (this will weigh 160 kg with the addition of the 40 kg counterweight).
2. Hang kilogram counterweight in notch on lower poise bar between 60 kg and 80 kg.
3. Move the small poise weight along the upper poise bar until the pointer is centered in the trig loop.
4. To arrive at the patient’s total weight, add 160 kg to the weight registered by the small poise weight. Example: for a patient weighing 172 kg, the large poise weight will be on 120 kg, and the small poise weight on the upper bar will be on 12 kg.

If the weight of the patient is over 180 kg

1. Place the large (lower) poise weight in the 140 kg notch (this will weigh 180 kg with the addition of the 40 kg counterweight).
2. Hang kilogram counterweight in notch on lower poise bar between 60 kg and 80 kg.
3. Move the small poise weight along the upper poise bar until the pointer is centered in the trig loop.
4. To arrive at the patient’s total weight, add 180 kg to the weight registered by the small poise weight.
