Detecto WPS12UT Waterproof Digital Wet Diaper Scale with Utility Bowl

Detecto WPS12UT Digital Wet Diaper Scale with Utility Bowl - Submersible Washdown Medical Scale for Quantitative Blood and Fluid Loss Measurement

In clinical, obstetrical, and neonatal care environments, precise fluid monitoring is critical for identifying postpartum hemorrhage and assessing infant or adult fluid output. Standard medical scales often lack the liquid protection necessary for frequent clinical washdowns or fail to offer the fine sensitivity required for low-volume fluid accounting. The Detecto WPS12UT Digital Wet Diaper Scale addresses these operational challenges by combining an IP67-rated washdown construction with fine-resolution digital measuring performance, allowing clinicians to quantify blood loss (QBL) and fluid volume across wet diapers, lap sponges, chux underpads, and medical specimens with speed and precision.

Engineered for high-volume hospital units, operating rooms, and pediatric wards, the WPS12UT features an IP67 waterproof enclosure that permits total submersion underwater for thorough cleaning and sanitation between patient uses. The included 4.6-inch deep stainless steel utility bowl retains fluid samples securely while preventing spills on surrounding equipment. Supported by a dual-power design that includes an 80-hour internal rechargeable battery and an AC power adapter with a watertight side connection, this scale provides seamless mobility across patient care rooms and surgical suites without compromising clinical hygiene or measurement accuracy.

Key Benefits:

• IP67 Submersible Waterproofing: Allows complete submersion in water for deep clinical cleaning and infection prevention between patient uses.
• Precise QBL Fluid Measurement: Delivers resolution down to 1 gram or 0.05 ounces to accurately quantify fluid loss from diapers, lap sponges, and underpads.
• Deep Utility Bowl Design: Features a 4.6-inch deep, 13.6-inch wide stainless steel bowl that securely retains bulky items and prevents fluid spills during weighing.
• One-Touch Tare Function: Instantly subtracts the dry weight of diapers or chux pads to isolate net liquid output without manual calculations.
• Multi-Capacity Toggle Options: Displays weight across six distinct capacity formats, including grams, ounces, fractional ounces, and decimal pounds.
• High-Mobility Power System: Integrates an internal rechargeable Ni-MH battery delivering up to 80 hours of continuous wireless operation alongside an AC power adapter.
• NSF-Certified Hygienic Construction: Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel to meet strict clinical sanitation and facility hygiene standards.
