tries of the world, is always setting new

ments for weighing and measuring.
In accordance with national regulations, the

load capacity of the scale. Weight is deter-
mined within a few seconds.
In addition to the conventional determina-
tion of weight, the seca 635 also has a
function for determining body mass index.
For this purpose, height is entered on the
keypad and the body mass index associ-
ated with the weight value is output.
You can use the Pre-Tare function to store
the weight of a chair, for example. This
weight is automatically deducted in the
weighing operation.
The high capacity of this scale and its fine
display graduations make it particularly
suitable for monitoring the weight of adi-
pose patients.
The scale is of a very sturdy construction
and will give you long and loyal service. It
is easy to operate and the large display is
easy to read.
• When using the scale with a mains unit,
ensure that the supply cable is routed in
such a way as to exclude any type of
tripping hazard.
• The cable between the weighing plat-
form and the case must be laid so that it
does not present a tripping hazard.
• Have scale serviced and re-calibrated
on a regular basis (see "Servicing/recal-
ibration" on page 28).
• Have repairs carried out exclusively by
authorised persons.
