Detecto's Electronic Veterinary Scale is a portable, tabletop veterinary scale with animal graphics keypad that is one piece for the platform, base, and indicator all-in-one. The lightweight Electronic Vet Scale features a 75 lb. / 704 oz / 35 kg capacity with highly accurate .02 lb. / .5 oz / .01 kg divisions. The smooth-contoured plastic platform is 20 in L x 14 in W x 2 in H / 50 cm L x 35 cm W x 5 cm H. The helpful HOLD function allows the animal's weight to be retained after leaving the platform. The scale is designed for smaller pets like cats, small dogs, rodents, and lizards with a sturdy and easy-to-clean weighing platform and low-profile design constructed of durable high-impact plastic. The programmable Auto-Shutoff turns off the scale when not in use to conserve batteries (adjustable up to 5 minutes). The Memory key recalls the last stored weight or updates the weight. Ideal for veterinary practices and small animal weighing, the Electronic Vet Scale weighs in weighs in lb., kg, oz, lb./oz. The 1 in / 25 mm high bold LCD display is integrated into the scale as one piece. Veterinarians and vet techs will appreciate the TARE function, which can remove the weight of a container (basket, box, or crate) used to contain small animals while weighing. The low-profile platform is only 2 in / 5 cm H that pets readily accept stepping onto. The digital veterinary scale is powered by 9V battery (not included) or AC adapter (not included).
