SYSTEM DESCRIPTION and INTENDED USE
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The SR755KG Wheelchair Scale System employs the latest in microprocessor and load cell
technology to provide accurate and repeatable weight data. Four (4) identically matched
transducers are strategically placed to ensure an accurate representation of the patient’s weight.
The low power microprocessor circuitry allows the SR755KG to derive its power from six (6)
common “D” cell batteries that will provide up to 10,000 weight readings before needing
replacement. This eliminates the need for an external battery charger or the danger of an AC
power supply cord on a portable scale.
The patient’s weight is displayed on a 16-character dot matrix LCD. With a push of a button,
weight data may be viewed, in eitherpounds or kilograms, with a displayed resolution of 0.1 for
each.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE cont’d
INTENDED USE
The SR755KG Wheelchair Scale System is specifically
designed for use as a portable patient weighing system
for ambulatory and non-ambulatory wheelchair bound
patients or those that need to be supported by a chair or
walker. Maximum weight capacity must not exceed
454 kilograms, gross weight.
MAINTENANCE and CLEANING
The SR755KG Wheelchair Scale System is
made of powder-coated aluminum casting with
stainless steel pipes. Exercise caution when
cleaning the display window as it is made of
clear polyester and can be scratched by
abrasive cleaners. Mild soap and water is
recommended for general cleaning and
disinfecting.
DO NOT use pressurized water or steam.
The scale system contains microprocessor
circuitry and strain gauge sensors that may
be adversely affected by exposure to such an
environment.

STORAGE and TRANSPORTATION
STORAGE
If storing this equipment for periods longer than three (3) months, remove the batteries. To
maintain proper operation of this instrumentation, storage and transport conditions should not vary
outside the following conditions: Relative Humidity 0% to 85%, Ambient Temperature -10°C to
+50°C (14°F to 122°F).
TRANSPORTATION
To transport the SR755KG, tilt the scale back and wheel to the new location. Lower the platform

BASIC SYSTEM OPERATION cont’d
STEP 1: Place the empty wheelchair (with any blankets or pillows that the patient may have
with them) on the scale platform. Then press the zero button.
NOTE: The display will shut off after 35 seconds. The zero (TARE) will still be stored
in memory.
STEP 2: Remove the wheelchair from the platform. Place the patient in the wheelchair.
STEP 3: Wheel the patient with wheelchair onto the platform. Lock the patient’s wheelchair
brake to prevent movement. Press the weigh button. The display will show the patient’s weight
only.
Do not leave patient unattended on the scale platform.
CONTINUOUS WEIGH
CAUTION
In this default mode, the weighing surface remains active. Press the “HOLD” button once to lock
the displayed reading and store it in memory as the “last weight” for recall later if needed.
AUTO-HOLD
This mode is for patients unable to remain still for the weighing procedure. It locks, stores, and
displays the patient’s weight as soon as the “WEIGH” button is pressed once. Note: No weight
will be displayed until the button is pressed.
To enable this mode, BEFORE zeroing the system, press and hold the “HOLD” button for
approximately five (5) seconds until the display reads “AUTO-HOLD ENABLED”.
To return to CONTINUOUS WEIGH mode when finished, press and hold the “HOLD” button for
approximately five (5) seconds until the display reads “CONTINUOUS WEIGH”.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
STEP 1: The display will read “REPLACE BATTERY”.
STEP 2: (Figure 5) Place the scale on its side and open the Battery Compartmentcover located
in the bottom of the scale between the wheels.
STEP 3: Remove and replace ALL six
(6) “D” cell batteries. Refer to diagram on
the Battery Compartment cover for
placement.
STEP 4: Press the “WEIGH” button to
confirm display is working.
STEP 5: Tightly close the cover.
STEP 6: Zero the system.

THEORY OF OPERATION
SR Instruments patient weighing systems are digital scales. Strain
of an aig
convertsignal by an analog to digital converter. The digital signal is transferred to a
micro-con oller where it is filtered, converted to appropriate units, and displayed on a liquid
pplied we ht into an analog signal. This signal is amplified by an operational amplifier and
ed to a digital
trcrystal
display.
Strain-gauge force cells each contain four strain gauges mounted in a full Wheatstone-bridge
configuysical moveme
vss the Wheatstone-bridge, which is amplified by the opera
se
small current, which nulls the ou
ration. These bridges convert the phnt of the force cell, due to the applied mass
n the system, into m ute changes in elec. These changes in resistance produce a
trical resistanceoin
oltage difference acrotional amplifier. The
mplifier is configureds serving to adjust the
to current sum the output of each cell, with potentiometera
nsitivity (voltage out per unit of weight applied) of each bridg e. The offset potentiometer produces a
tput of the amplifier for an unloaded sys tem.
The output of the operational amplifier is digitized by the analog to digital converter. The converter
integrates the analog signal onto the integrating capacitor over a short interval. The int
capacitor is then
The residual volta
discharged at a rate proportional to the reference voltage applied to the converter.
ge on the integrating capacitor is then multiplied by a factor and again discharged at
a rate proportional to the reference voltage. The residual voltage from this discharge is again
multiplied by a factor and again discharged. The time taken to disc harge the capacitor is proportional
to the voltage from the operational amplifier, w
hich is proportional to the applied load on the force
cells. The time is stored as a binary number in the analog to digital converter and is transferred to the
micro-controller when the conversion is complete.
The micro-controller averages and filters the digital output of the analog to digital converter, subtracts
the value saved during the system zero operation and scales the filtered output, then displays the result
on the liquid crystal display. The micro-controller perfor ms a rolling average of data for
eigh and, for AutoHold, the micro-controller averages the data before locking in on the reading. If
w
e data variance is greater tontroller will reset the filter

and start a new averaging pe
riod.
The micro controller can be placed in a calibration mode, wher
the calibra ion mode, the result of the weigh operation is scaled to match the value by adjusting the
“up” and “down” calibration buttons. This new

CALIBRATION
IMPORTANT
CALIBRATION CHECK Qualified service personnel only should perform this
procedure. Load cells have no user serviceable components and should not be tampered
with for any reason. Re-calibration is generally not required, but should be verified
periodically to ensure accuracy. The recommendation for calibration check is at least
once every 12 months, or as individual maintenance policy requires.

NOTE: Ensure that nothing is in contact with the scale system during this procedure. Remove
hands from the system when noting the displayed calibration results.
STEP 1: (Figure 1) Remove the two (2) screws on the bottom of the display housing. Lift the
display panel. The calibration buttons are located on the PC Board.
STEP 2: (Figure 6) Press and hold both butto

STEP 3: The display will read “HOLD TO CAL” as the right hand digit
counts down to enter the CAL mode.
STEP 4: When in the CAL mode, press the “ZERO” button to zero the
display.
TEP 5: Place a known calibrated weight, traceable to NIST, onto the
S
weighing surface and compare it to the displayed reading. Note: DO
NOT USE barbell weights or calibrate to a mechanical scale.
