The Marsden CC-999 Carry Case is a purpose-designed padded carry case for the M-999 Patient Transfer Scale, Marsden's specialist weighing solution for patients who require weighing during a clinical transfer. Protecting the M-999 during transport between wards, clinical areas and departments in NHS hospitals where it functions as a shared mobile resource, the CC-999 maintains the scale's structural and calibration integrity across repeated transport cycles in the physically demanding environment of daily NHS hospital corridors and lifts.
Purpose-sized for the M-999's specific dimensions, the case accommodates the complete scale assembly in a single organised unit that supports rapid deployment at the point of clinical need without additional component preparation.

The M-999 Patient Transfer Scale is a Class III Approved specialist clinical device, and maintaining its calibration accuracy throughout its operational life requires protection from the physical impacts that occur during repeated inter-ward transport in NHS hospitals. The CC-999 carry case provides the structured impact protection that reduces calibration drift risk from transport-related load cell stress, supporting the NHS medical equipment management standard that Class III scales should be maintained in a condition that preserves their certified clinical accuracy. CQC Regulation 17 (Good Governance) requires regulated providers to maintain clinical equipment appropriately: the CC-999 case is part of the equipment maintenance approach for this specialist scale.
What is the Marsden M-999 Patient Transfer Scale and in which settings is it used?
The M-999 is Marsden's specialist scale designed for weighing patients during a clinical transfer, capturing a weight reading during the lifting phase of a patient transfer rather than requiring a separate weighing episode. With 250kg capacity and Class III approval, it is used in NHS hospitals and specialist care settings where patient transfers occur routinely and obtaining a separate clinical weight is logistically difficult or clinically inadvisable. The M-999 is a high-value specialist scale, and the CC-999 case is the recommended carry and storage solution for NHS trusts operating the M-999 as a shared mobile resource across multiple clinical areas.
Does the CC-999 case affect the M-999's LOLER compliance when the scale is in use?
The CC-999 case is a transport and storage case only and is not used during the M-999's clinical weighing operation. It is removed before the scale is deployed for patient weighing and replaced for transport between locations. LOLER compliance for the M-999 relates to the scale's rated lifting capacity and the clinical operation itself, not to the carry case. Marsden recommends consulting their technical team and local NHS LOLER coordinator for guidance on the complete LOLER compliance framework for M-999 clinical deployment in your specific trust environment.
