MX908 Opti-Height Handrail Scale

A measuring station with a handrail, for patients who need something to hold while they are weighed. It measures weight, height and BMI, then tilts back on its wheels to go to the next room.

  • Capacity of 750 lb (340 kg), read to 0.1 lb (0.05 kg)
  • Opti-Height rod measures from 25 to 94 in (63 to 238 cm), to ± 0.1 in (0.2 cm)
  • Wrap-around active handrail, 25 in (63.5 cm) between the handgrips
  • Tilt and roll on 3 in (7.6 cm) wheels, through standard doorways

Support for the patient, height in seconds

  • A caregiver walking beside a patient in a rehabilitation centre

    The patient holds the active handrail for support while the weight is calculated. The handrail does not get in the way of the feet.

  • Headpiece of the Befour MX908 height rod

    Lower the foldable headpiece onto the head and press HEIGHT. Smart Position Technology keeps the slide where it was left for the next patient.

  • Befour MX908 tilted back on its transport wheels

    The scale rests still while it weighs. To move it, tilt it back on its 3 in wheels; it fits through standard doorways.

  • A nurse at the bedside of a patient in a hospital room

    MotionLock settles the weight even when the person moves. Weight, height and BMI go out through USB serial or the optional wireless module.

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 MX908

How does the MX908 measure height?

With Opti-Height: lower the foldable headpiece onto the top of the head and press HEIGHT, and the measurement is taken at once. Smart Position Technology keeps the slide where it was last left, ready for the next patient. The rod measures from 25 to 94 in (about 63 to 238 cm), to ± 0.1 in (0.2 cm). The MX908 calculates BMI and shows weight, height and BMI on one screen.

How is the MX908 moved between exam rooms?

Tilt the scale back on its 3 in (7.6 cm) wheels and roll it away. It fits through standard doorways and weighs 33 lb (15 kg). The Tilt & Roll design keeps it stationary during weighing and ready to move at any time. It runs on 4 D-cell batteries, so it needs no outlet in the next room.

How does the MX908 differ from the MX905?

Both have Opti-Height, a capacity of 750 lb (340 kg) and a 16 × 18 in (40.6 × 45.7 cm) platform. The MX905 is a column scale of 17 lb (7.7 kg); its sheet lists no handrail or wheels. The MX908 adds a wrap-around active handrail, with 25 in (63.5 cm) between the handgrips, and Tilt & Roll transport on 3 in (7.6 cm) wheels. It weighs 33 lb (15 kg).
