The Seca 217 mobile height measure is distinguished by its especially top quality materials and a cleverly designed assembly system. The stability of this stadiometer is unmatched and is particularly suited for use in doctors' practices, hospitals, schools and patients' homes. When disassembled the stadiometer can be conveniently transported to any location in the optional carry case (see Seca Model 412 Carry Case). The 217 can also be attached to Seca flat scales (models 876 and 877) with the optional Model 437 adaptor thus providing a complete weighing and measuring station in portable format.
