Description
The DETECTO model 8500 portable stretcher scale with a spacious 60 in W x 32.5 in D/1,524 mm W x 826 mm D platform size can accommodate all common stretcher types. With a net weight of 115 lb/52 kg, the scale is light enough to make it easily portable for lifting up and rolling by nursing professionals. In addition to its slim profile scale design that fits easily through doorways of nearly any size, it is also easy to quickly slide the release lever and fold down the 8500’s easy-collapsible column for transport. The scale’s relatively low net weight, wheels, and guide handles all combine to make it easy to maneuver and ideal for emergency arrivals into a hospital when time is of the essence for gathering patient weights.
