Description

The Marsden M-950 is a portable four-pad bed weighing system. 600kg or 1000kg capacity, 45mm low-profile pads, and BMI calculation. Class III Approved.

The Marsden M-950 is the ultimate in high-capacity, mobile bed weighing. Unlike traditional beam scales, the M-950 utilizes four independent, ultra-low-profile weighing pads that are placed directly under each castor of the bed. This unique design allows clinicians to weigh bed-bound patients without moving the bed to another room or using uncomfortable hoists, ensuring maximum patient dignity and minimal physical strain for staff.

Fully Class III Approved, this versatile system is available in two capacity configurations to meet the needs of standard wards or specialized bariatric units.

Modular Design for Universal Compatibility

The M-950 is engineered to fit almost any hospital bed or trolley, regardless of the wheelbase width:

  • Ultra-Low Profile Pads: Each pad is just 45mm high, featuring a shallow incline that makes rolling even heavy motorized beds onto the pads straightforward and safe.

  • Colour-Coded Setup: To eliminate confusion during rapid ward rounds, the leads are colour-coded, allowing staff to connect the pads to the indicator and begin weighing in seconds.

  • Choice of Transport: The M-950 is designed for genuine “room-to-room” portability. You can choose to have the pads stored on a custom-designed trolley (with the indicator built-in) or in four heavy-duty carry bags for community use.

     

Dual Capacity & Clinical Precision

The M-950 is available in two distinct versions to suit your facility’s specific requirements:

  • Standard Medical Version: 600kg capacity with 200g graduations.

  • High-Capacity Bariatric Version: 1000kg capacity with 500g graduations.

    Both versions feature a full numeric keypad and the premium DP-3810 indicator, which simultaneously displays Weight, Height, and BMI across three clear LCD screens.

Advanced Software for Critical Care

Precision is vital when monitoring fluid balance or calculating medication dosages for bed-bound patients. The M-950 includes advanced software features as standard:

  • Preset Tare Function: Store the weights of your facility’s standard beds. Simply recall the preset value to instantly deduct the bed weight, leaving only the patient’s net weight on the display.

  • Stabilizing Hold Feature: The “Hold” function captures an accurate weight reading even if the patient is moving or restless in bed.

     

  • EMR Integration: For modern, paperless hospitals, the M-950 can be upgraded with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connectivity to transmit weight and BMI data directly into Electronic Medical Records.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please see below for answers to frequently asked questions.

A calibration certificate proves the accuracy of your weighing equipment. It is very likely that if accuracy matters in your workplace, certification will be required by your industry regulators. They are straightforward to get hold of though. Just ask our team.

If you are trading or transacting anything by weight, you will probably need to demonstrate your weighing equipment is verified for trade use. This gives your customers confidence in your business and will make sure buying and selling run smoothly. We can help get you with relevant approvals for your equipment.

The answer will vary depending on how your equipment is used. As a minimum, we typically recommend once a year but our team can provide advice based on your individual circumstances.

The International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML) has established standards for the classification of calibration test weights. Varying from E0 & E1, which are the most accurate to M2 which are commonly used for calibrating platform scales, floor scales and other industrial weighing instruments.

As a rough guide we have listed desired accuracy against class below.

+/- 0.1% – UNclassed Proof Load Test Weights
+/- 0.05% – M3 (Check/calibrate coarse scales)
+/- 0.005% – M1 (Check/calibrate standard scales)
+/- 0.0015% – F2 (Check/calibrate portable balances)
+/- 0.0005% – F1 (Check/calibrate precision balances)
+/- 0.00015% – E2 (Check/calibrate analytical balances)

The choice of weight class depends on the intended use and the level of accuracy required for a particular application. If you’re unsure, talk to our team who can advise you on the right class for your equipment.

If you’re sending a scale back to us for recalibration, it is ideal to use the original packaging. If this is not available choose a sturdy well-padded box to avoid shocks. Where possible, protect the load sensor by removing the weighing pan and any under-pan support and pack these separately in the box. You may be able to use the equipment’s locking pins or screws too.

Do ensure all the paperwork, including your contact details, is included to ensure we can return it once calibration is complete.
