Marsden M-400-80D Portable Baby & Toddler Scale with Integrated Height Rod (Class III Approved)

Description

The Marsden M-400-80D is a complete neonatal and paediatric growth monitoring station in a single portable unit. Building on the success of the standard M-400, this model comes fitted with a digital height rod as standard, allowing clinicians to capture both weight and length simultaneously. This dual-functionality makes it the premier choice for health visitors, midwives, and paediatric surgeries where comprehensive growth data is required.

As a Class III and MDD Approved medical device, the M-400-80D meets all legal UK requirements for medical monitoring and diagnosis. With its signature slide-off pan, it serves as a secure infant scale and a stable toddler platform, providing a versatile solution that scales with the child’s development.

Comprehensive Growth Monitoring in the Community

The M-400-80D is engineered to provide surgery-level diagnostics within a highly portable, 4kg chassis.

Key Performance Features:

• Integrated Height Measurement: The built-in height rod allows for the rapid measurement of infant length alongside weight, ensuring a full growth assessment in one easy step.

• Versatile 2-in-1 Design: The hygienic baby tray can be removed with a simple slide action, transforming the device into a low-profile floor scale for standing toddlers.

• Clinical Precision: Features high-accuracy graduations of 5g increments up to 10kg (and 10g thereafter). This level of detail is essential for tracking neonatal nutrition and development.

• Built for Travel: Despite the added height rod, the unit remains lightweight at 4kg. It is designed for life on the road and can be safely transported in an optional rucksack (RK-400) or carry case (CC-400).

• Extended Battery Life: Powered by 6 x AA batteries, it provides 100 hours of continuous use—enough for approximately 6,000 weigh-ins without needing a mains outlet.

Professional Features for Active Clinics

• Dynamic “Hold” Technology: Captures an accurate weight even if the infant is moving on the scale, ensuring the first reading is the right one.

• Hygienic Slide-Off Pan: The easy-to-clean plastic pan is designed for rapid sanitisation between patients, meeting strict clinical infection control standards.

• Tare Function: Instantly deduct the weight of nappies, blankets, or clothing to ensure you are viewing the infant’s true net weight.
