Seca 645 EMR-Validated Handrail Scale for Total Patient Assurance 

The Seca 645 EMR-Validated Handrail Scale is a premium Class III medically approved weighing solution designed for hospitals, clinics, rehabilitation centres, and care facilities that require the highest levels of safety and precision. Combining robust engineering with intelligent digital integration, it offers both patients and practitioners a dependable experience every time weight data is captured. The scale’s design revolves around one central principle — security and stability for users with limited mobility, while maintaining the uncompromising accuracy that Seca is globally recognised for.

At first glance, the Seca 645 impresses with its elegant yet purposeful structure. The all-round handrail provides firm, continuous support from every angle, significantly reducing the risk of slips or falls during weighing. This feature is particularly valuable in clinical environments where elderly patients, those in recovery, or individuals with mobility impairments require reliable stability. Whether the patient is able to stand unaided or needs to hold onto the handrail for balance, the scale ensures complete reassurance throughout the process. For those who can stand only briefly, a chair may be placed on the platform, and thanks to the TARE function, the chair’s weight can be deducted instantly — making the weighing process seamless and stress-free for both patient and healthcare professional.

Key Features

• Class III medically approved for certified clinical accuracy
• EMR-validated for direct data transfer to electronic medical record systems or printers
• All-round handrail provides safe and stable support for patients with limited mobility
• Large, non-slip platform (600 × 600mm) with only 55mm step height for easy access
• TARE / Pre-TARE / HOLD / Auto-HOLD / Auto-CLEAR / RESET functions for efficient operation
• Automatic weighing-range switch-over for consistent results
• Adjustable damping reduces movement interference
• Integrated BMI calculator for instant health assessment
• Robust metal frame designed for long-term, high-frequency clinical use
• Compact footprint (640 × 1,150 × 660mm) to suit various room sizes
• Optional telescopic measuring rod converts scale into a full measuring station

In addition to its connectivity, the scale’s range of intelligent functions enhances usability and accuracy. The TARE and Pre-TARE functions allow the deduction of additional items such as walking aids or chairs. The HOLD and Auto-HOLD functions stabilise the display reading, even if the patient moves slightly, guaranteeing consistent results. The Auto-CLEAR feature resets the display automatically after each weighing, and Automatic Weighing Range Switch-Over ensures optimal measurement performance regardless of patient weight. Furthermore, Adjustable Damping smooths out fluctuations caused by small movements, while the built-in BMI calculator provides immediate health assessment data at the point of care.

The Seca 645 has been designed with both clinical performance and energy efficiency in mind. It can be powered via rechargeable batteries or the included power adapter. With power supply connected, the scale remains active with no automatic switch-off, ensuring readiness for continuous use in busy clinical settings. When operated from the rechargeable batteries, automatic power management helps maintain long-term reliability and cost efficiency.

Durability is another defining attribute. Constructed with Seca’s renowned build quality, the unit combines robust metalwork and high-grade components to withstand constant use in demanding environments. Despite its strength, the scale’s overall weight of just 25.4kg makes it manageable for relocation when required. With compact dimensions of 640mm (W) × 1,150mm (H) × 660mm (D), it occupies minimal floor space, enabling flexible placement even in smaller consultation rooms or wards.

Benefits

• Enhanced patient safety with a sturdy all-round handrail that minimises the risk of falls or imbalance
• The spacious, low-profile platform allows easy entry and exit for a range of users
• Time-saving for staff with quick TARE and Auto-HOLD functions to simplify every weighing session
• Quiet, stable, and reassuring during use
• Data integrity guaranteed from its EMR connectivity that eliminates manual transcription errors
• Automatic functions that reduce setup and reset time between patients
• Suitable for standing or seated weighing with chair deduction
• Durable construction and rechargeable batteries that lower lifetime costs
• Ready for integration into modern digital health record systems

For facilities wishing to extend the scale’s functionality, we offer two optional accessories (sold separately) that make the 645 even more versatile:

The Telescopic Measuring Rod, which easily converts the Seca 645 into a full-function measurement station. Once attached, the patient’s height can be entered directly into the control unit to calculate BMI automatically, ensuring a complete set of body-measurement data in one efficient step.

In addition to the rod, we have an Interface Module that is effective at providing data transmission via WLAN or LAN. This accessory allows quick patient identification directly on the device and guarantees accurate digital data transfer without transcription errors — a valuable advantage in multi-user clinical networks.

By combining robust design, digital intelligence, and uncompromising accuracy, the Seca 645 EMR-Validated Handrail Scale represents a new standard in safe and reliable patient weighing. It simplifies complex procedures, enhances data quality, and improves patient confidence — all in one easy-to-use system. Whether used for daily monitoring in a care home or in a high-volume hospital department, the 645 is built to deliver dependable performance day after day.

In short, the Seca 645 is more than just a weighing device — it’s a complete clinical support system that protects patients, reduces workload, and brings efficiency and reassurance to every interaction.

Customer Reviews

"A Remarkably Safe and Reliable Weighing Solution" – Eleanor F.

"The Seca 645 has made a noticeable difference in our daily patient assessments. Many of our elderly patients struggle with balance, so the fully surrounding handrail offers exactly the reassurance they need to feel safe while being weighed. The stability of the platform and clarity of the display make the process quick, accurate, and stress-free for both patients and staff. We’ve also found the EMR connectivity extremely valuable, as it saves time and ensures data is automatically logged without errors. It’s an excellent investment for any clinical department that prioritises patient safety and efficiency."

"Perfect for Our Rehabilitation Facility" – James C. 

"Our facility supports patients recovering from surgery and injury, many of whom have limited mobility. This product has proven ideal for this environment — the large non-slip platform and sturdy handrail make it easy for patients to step on confidently. The BMI function and damping system are also incredibly helpful for monitoring gradual progress over time. We particularly appreciate how easy it is to clean and maintain between uses, which is crucial in a busy rehab centre. It’s clear that this scale has been designed with both practicality and safety in mind."

"Reliable, Accurate, and Easy to Use for Care Home Staff" - Patricia Y.

"We recently introduced the Seca 645 into our care home and couldn’t be happier with its performance. The residents feel secure holding onto the handrail, and our nursing staff find the display simple to read and operate. Being able to weigh residents while they’re seated, thanks to the TARE function, has made things much easier. It’s reassuring to know that every reading is precise, and the rechargeable batteries mean we can use it anywhere in the facility. I would highly recommend this scale to other care homes looking for reliability and user-friendly design."
