Three Signs That Your Medical Weight Scales Need Replacing (And Where to Replace Them in Sydney)
How to Know If You Need a New Medical Weighing ScaleAre you wondering about the performance of the medical weight scale? If you notice that your scale is exhibiting any of the symptoms described below, then it might be time to go shopping for new medical weighing scales in Sydney.Your scale gives different measurements every time you step onto the platformHere’s a great way to test your scale: step onto the weighing platform three or four times consecutively and take note of the measurement readouts. In between weighing sessions, step off the scale and let it recalibrate. If your scale gives you consistent measurements each time, that’s a sign it is performing as it should. If the scale gives inconsistent readouts, though, there is something wrong with the load cells, and you might consider finding a replacement.Your scale won’t make up its mindWe’ve all seen scales that can’t seem to settle on a final measurement. Step onto your scale and take note of how long it takes to give you a steady measurement. If the numbers on the digital readout keep going up and down without finding a stable measurement point—or if the scale takes a long time to decide which measurement is ‘right’—then your scale needs recalibration or replacement.Your scale gives different measurements than another scale in your practicePerhaps you have two or more medical weight scales at your Sydney business: one that is older and lagging in performance and one that is newer that you know for certain is accurate. If you do have a newer, more accurate scale that you can use as a control group, then testing the accuracy of the older less reliable scale is easy. Just weigh yourself on the new scale, write down the weight and then weigh yourself on the older scale and see if the weights match. If the older scale consistently delivers the same measurement, then you can still rely on it. If the measurements are different—especially if they differ significantly—replace the older scale.Find a New Medical Weight Scale in Sydney by Shopping with Weigh More SolutionsJust like clocks slow down over the years, scales can lose some of their calibration.
