The Tanita BWB 800 S MA is a versatile, top range, low cost model which can be used wherever there is a power point or in the field, as it will run perfectly on standard batteries. Having the display separate from the base makes this unit portable, and can be transported inside its optional carry bag. It is ideal for off-site visits or use in clinics where space is tight and the ability to pack the unit away in a cupboard after use would be an advantage. It is a high-precision instrument using single point load cell technology, giving a total body weight. It is supplied complete with a 5V AC adapter. This equipment is EC approved Class III for medical use.

A similar model without EC Class III approval is available.
