The Marsden CC-600 is a compact showerproof padded carry case for the M-600 Class III and MDD Approved hoist weighing attachment, the UK's best-selling clinical hoist scale. The CC-600 provides weather-resistant transport protection for the M-600 in community care settings where the scale is carried to hoist-dependent patients in residential homes, where rain exposure during outdoor transit between a vehicle and the patient's door is a routine occurrence that an unprotected M-600 would be vulnerable to during daily community rounds.
Purpose-sized for the M-600's compact form, the CC-600 maintains the scale's lightweight portability advantage while providing the structured impact and moisture protection required to maintain its Class III and MDD calibration accuracy across a community deployment life.

The M-600 is a Class III and MDD Approved hoist weighing attachment used in LOLER-compliant hoist transfer workflows across NHS and community care settings. Maintaining the M-600 in a dedicated carry case supports the physical equipment maintenance standard expected under LOLER by reducing cumulative impact wear during transport, and simplifies the pre-use visual inspection recommended before each clinical deployment. The showerproof outer of the CC-600 specifically addresses the community care deployment pattern where the M-600 is carried to patient homes in the UK climate, protecting the indicator electronics from the moisture exposure that can gradually compromise Class III accuracy if the scale is repeatedly transported without weather protection in community use.
What is the main difference between the CC-600 and CC-605 carry cases?
The CC-600 is sized for the M-600 hoist attachment, and the CC-605 is sized for the M-605, which is 10cm wider. The two cases are not interchangeable: using the CC-605 for the M-600 provides a poor fit that reduces impact protection effectiveness, and the M-605 will not fit in the CC-600. Always use the carry case designated for the specific hoist attachment model, and confirm the attachment model on your scale before ordering the carry case to ensure the correct fit.
Can the M-600 and its CC-600 case be stored on a hoist between uses rather than in a clinical cupboard?
Some NHS wards and care homes store the M-600 permanently attached to or hanging from the hoist between patient weighing sessions rather than carrying it in a case between sessions. Whether this is appropriate depends on the clinical area, infection control requirements and the local equipment management policy. Where the M-600 is stored on the hoist, the CC-600 case provides an alternative off-hoist storage and transport option when the M-600 needs to be moved between hoist locations or transported to a service appointment. Consult local nursing management and infection control for guidance on the preferred storage approach in your specific clinical environment.
