  • Converts from chair scale to handrail scale in seconds, without tools
  • Padded 3 in (7.6 cm) seat, 25 in (63.5 cm) between the armrests and a slide-out footrest

Two scales in one

  • Befour MX308CHR convertible chair scale with its display console

    The seat has 3 in of padding and 25 in between the armrests. The vinyl covering is easy to clean.

  • Befour MX308CHR converted to a handrail scale

    Without tools, the chair scale becomes a handrail scale in seconds. The patient grasps the “active” handrail for support while the weight is taken.

  • Residents in the common room of a seniors’ residence

    MotionLock settles the weight even when the person moves, without help from the caregiver or the patient.

  • A nurse working at a computer on a cart in a care unit corridor

    Weight, height and BMI show on one screen. Send them through USB serial output or the optional wireless module. The scale tilts back on its wheels to move.

Built into this scale

  • MotionLock

    The scale settles the reading by itself, so a patient who sways or shifts still gets a weight you can record.

  • ECO Weigh batteries

    Standard D-cell batteries last a long time between changes, so there is no cord on the floor and no outlet to find.

  • Hands-free weighing

    A console setting lets the scale weigh without anyone pressing a button, which keeps hands off shared surfaces.

  • Ready for the medical record

    Weights can go to your electronic record through the serial output or the optional wireless module.

  • Aluminum build

    An aluminum frame that does not rust and stays light enough for your team to move.

Questions about the MX308CHR

How does the MX308CHR convert from a chair scale to a handrail scale?

The MX308CHR is two scales in one: a wide-body chair scale and a stand-on handrail scale. Befour states that the conversion takes only seconds and requires no tools. Befour describes the integrated “active” handrail for stand-on use: the patient can grasp it for support while the weight is calculated.

How much room does the MX308CHR chair give a seated patient?

The chair has a 3 in (7.6 cm) padded seat, 25 in (63.5 cm) between the armrests and a slide-out footrest. Befour describes it as an extra-wide chair that accommodates most patient sizes. The chair scale measures 29 × 27 × 42 in (73.7 × 68.6 × 106.7 cm), with a capacity of 500 lb (220 kg).

What is the MX308CHR seat covered with?

Befour lists an anti-microbial vinyl covering on the MX308CHR, for sanitation and ease of cleaning. The product sheet does not give cleaning products or steps. Contact LIOMAR first: we direct you to the Befour instructions for your unit, and you can name your facility’s cleaning requirements in your quote request.

How is the MX308CHR moved between care areas?

The MX308CHR uses Befour’s Tilt & Roll design with robust wheels: the scale stays still for weighing and is ready to move at any time. It weighs 64 lb (29 kg) and runs on 4 D-cell alkaline batteries, so it needs no outlet. It ships by freight, in two boxes.
