Marsden M-100 Column Scale with Height Measure, Class III Approved Column Scale for Weight, Height and BMI Monitoring
- Class III Approved, 300kg capacity, 50g graduations, meeting NAWI Directive requirements for clinical monitoring and treatment, with unique space-saving corner design and 1mm-precision integrated height measure as standard for complete weight, height and BMI capture in a single clinical unit.
- Corner footprint fits where standard column scales cannot, making the M-100 the preferred specification for NHS consulting rooms, outpatient departments and GP waiting areas where floor space is at a premium and a compact clinical weighing station maximises room usability.
- Internal rechargeable battery with mains adaptor supplied, with optional Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and TP-2100 printer connectivity for EPR data transfer and printed weight, height and BMI records supporting NHS paperless programmes and CQC clinical record-keeping requirements.
- Wide platform for ease of patient access, with automatic height measure option for instant BMI display without manual height entry, suitable for high-throughput NHS outpatient departments, obesity clinics and bariatric pre-assessment settings.
Marsden M-100: Class III Approved Premium Column Scale with Integrated Height Measure
The Marsden M-100 is a premium Class III Approved column scale with an integrated retractable height measure, designed for NHS hospital wards, outpatient departments and GP surgeries requiring a complete weight, height and BMI measurement solution in a single clinical unit. Its unique corner design positions the column across a 90-degree corner footprint rather than against a flat wall, significantly reducing the floor space required compared with standard column scales and making it the preferred specification for consulting rooms where space efficiency directly affects clinical workflow.
With 300kg capacity, 50g precision and a wide platform for patient comfort, the M-100 is specified across NHS obesity clinics, bariatric pre-assessment units and outpatient departments where the combination of high capacity, corner-fit design and integrated height measure eliminates the need for separate measurement equipment.

Regulatory and Clinical Compliance
Class III approval under the NAWI Directive confirms the M-100 is authorised for patient monitoring, diagnosis and treatment in NHS and regulated settings. The integrated 1mm-precision height measure supports the complete BMI assessment required for NICE Obesity Pathway (CG43) documentation and bariatric pre-operative assessment, where both weight and height are required data points. Optional Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity support NHS Digital EPR integration standards, and the optional TP-2100 printer generates the time-stamped weight, height and BMI record required for CQC Regulation 17 (Good Governance) clinical record-keeping in regulated care settings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the corner design of the M-100 make it more practical than a standard column scale in a consulting room?
A standard column scale requires a flat wall section to stand against, typically occupying 40-60cm of wall run in a consulting room. The M-100's corner design uses the corner of the room, where wall space is not otherwise usable for clinical equipment or furniture, and typically occupies less than 30cm of wall run on each side of the corner. In an NHS consulting room where every square metre is configured for clinical workflow, this space saving is clinically meaningful, allowing the M-100 to be permanently positioned without displacing other clinical furniture or equipment.
Can babies and young children be weighed on the M-100?
Yes. A common technique on the M-100 is for a parent or carer to step on the scale holding the baby, with their weight tared off to display the baby's weight alone. The M-100's wide platform provides a stable, safe surface for this method. For accurate infant weight monitoring to 2g or 5g precision, a dedicated Class III baby scale (M-300, M-320, M-400) remains the clinical recommendation, as the M-100's 50g graduation is not sufficient for precise neonatal weight monitoring where sub-10g changes are clinically significant.
