Versatile Weighing for Babies and Toddlers
The Marsden M-320 is a highly versatile baby scale designed to support accurate weighing from infancy through early childhood. Suitable for weighing both babies and toddlers, the M-320 is available with an optional capacity of either 20 kg or 50 kg, allowing healthcare providers to select the most appropriate specification for their clinical or community needs. This flexibility makes the scale a practical long-term solution that can continue to be used as a child grows.
An innovative slide-off tray allows the M-320 to be quickly converted from a traditional baby weighing tray into a stable standing platform for toddlers. This dual-purpose design removes the need for multiple weighing devices, helping to streamline equipment requirements while maintaining safety and accuracy. The scale is constructed from durable Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), a high-strength material chosen for its impact resistance and longevity. This robust construction ensures the scale remains reliable even with frequent use over extended periods.
Ideal for Community-Based Care
Recognising that babies and toddlers are weighed at home just as often as in clinical environments, the Marsden M-320 has been designed to be ultra-lightweight and highly portable. Its compact form and low overall weight make it particularly well suited to community midwives, health visitors, and paediatric professionals who travel regularly between appointments.
To further support mobility, the M-320 is compatible with optional transport accessories, including the RK-400 rucksack and the CC-400 carry case. These accessories make transporting the scale easier and more comfortable while providing added protection during transit. This is especially beneficial for professionals working in community settings, where equipment must be both practical to carry and well protected from everyday wear.
The portability of the M-320 also supports flexible use across different care environments. Whether used during home visits, in clinics, or within health centres, the scale can be quickly set up and packed away, helping professionals work efficiently without compromising accuracy or reliability.
Simple and Intuitive Operation
Ease of use is a defining feature of the Marsden M-320 and a key reason for its popularity as one of the best-selling models in the range. The scale is equipped with four simple, clearly labelled buttons and a large, easy-to-read display, allowing weight readings to be taken quickly and confidently. This intuitive design ensures minimal training is required, making the M-320 suitable for use by a wide range of healthcare professionals.
The On/Off button provides full control over the device, supporting efficient power management during busy clinics or home visits. The Hold function is particularly valuable when weighing active babies or toddlers, as it captures and displays a stable reading even when movement is present. This reduces the need for repeat measurements and helps save time.
The Tare function allows the weight of slings, nappies, or clothing to be deducted, ensuring that only the child’s true body weight is recorded. In addition, the recall memory button is especially useful for regular client visits, enabling previous readings to be referenced easily and supporting effective growth monitoring over time.
Designed for Reliability and Long-Term Use
The Marsden M-320 has been engineered to deliver consistent performance in demanding healthcare environments. Its durable ABS construction supports long-term use while maintaining accuracy and stability. This focus on reliability makes the scale a cost-effective investment for healthcare organisations seeking dependable equipment that can withstand frequent use.
A Practical and Trusted Weighing Solution
In summary, the Marsden M-320 offers a flexible, accurate, and user-friendly weighing solution for babies and toddlers. With its dual-use design, lightweight portability, and intuitive controls, it is ideally suited to both community and clinical settings. Designed to support healthcare professionals with reliable performance and ease of use, the M-320 is a trusted choice for effective child weight monitoring.
