MX170Portable Bariatric Platform Scale

The Befour MX170 Portable Bariatric Platform Scale ensures that patients of all sizes receive the same quality clinical assessment, regardless of body weight. With a maximum capacity of 1,000 lbs, it is designed for bariatric care programs, obesity management clinics, and facilities treating patients with higher body weights who cannot be accurately measured on standard equipment.

Despite its exceptional capacity, the MX170 retains the same lightweight 17-lb all-aluminum construction as the rest of the MX Series, making it genuinely portable for home visits, mobile clinics, and long-term care settings. MotionLock technology stabilizes readings during weighing, while the built-in BMI calculator provides immediate body composition data. ECO Weigh battery management supports high-volume use across all care settings.
