What Is the 25 kg Infant Spring Scale Used For?
Suspend the scale at the health worker’s eye level so the dial can be read straight on without parallax. Hang the weighing trousers or sling from the lower hook, turn the pointer to zero, then lower the child in gently. The damping mechanism calms the swinging that a moving toddler causes, so the needle comes to rest quickly and the weight can be read to the nearest 100 g and written on the growth card.
Between sessions, check the zero with nothing attached and hang a known weight now and then to confirm the reading has not drifted; the calibration screw allows adjustment when needed. Simple routine care, such as wiping off dust and moisture and storing the scale unloaded, keeps the spring and dial mechanism in good order during heavy field use.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Carriers for the lower hook: Weighing Trousers for seated children up to 25 kg and/or the Sling for use with Scale for newborns up to 5 kg.
- Whether a finer 5 kg x 25 g spring scale is also needed for newborn weighing.
- The number of scales per team, bearing in mind that the readout is in kilograms only.
- The delivery location for the consignment.
