SPECIFICATIONS FOR THIS SCALE

General

The Model 3001KL-AM/3001KL-AMC digital scale uses highly sophisticated
microprocessor technology. Each precision scale is designed to provide accurate,
reliable and repeatable weight measurements. This scale uses motion-sensing
weighing technology in order to determine the actual weight of a moving patient.

Although the patient’s weight can be displayed in either pounds (LB) or in kilograms
(KG), the scale can be “locked” such that the user cannot change the displayed Unit of
Measurement (UOM).

Note: The 3001KL-AM/3001KL-AMC scale is shipped from the factory locked in “KG”
mode. Refer to Page 13 to learn more about configuring the scale.

Antimicrobial Powder Coating

Unique to the 3001KL-AM/3001KL-AMC scale, the handrails and transport handle have
been fabricated with a permanent, antimicrobial powder coating. The antimicrobial
coating utilizes silver ionic technology to inhibit the growth of microbes.

This scale can be powered using 6 AA batteries (included). An optional 120V Adapter
is available in USA only, ADPT30.

Note: Use of AC adapter not available on 3001KL-AMC model.
