Whole body data
Weight : Measured weight. Values based on BMI of 22 being defined as standard weight.
Fat % : Indicates fat ratio of the weight.
Fat mass : Indicates fat mass of the body.
FFM : Weight of non-fat components (i.e. muscle, water, bone, etc.).
Muscle mass :Indicates constituent mass other than fat and bone mineral. Muscle mass displayed by this equipment is the value
including skeletal muscles, plain muscle (i.e. internal organs, etc.) and TBW.
TBW : Indicates amount of total body water and is composed of blood, lymph fluid, intercellular fluid, intracellular fluid, etc.
BMI : Calculated as weight (kg) divided by height squared (m)
illness.
Bone Mass : Indicates bone mineral level of all bones.
* Standard values are for standard mode. These standard values should only be used as reference for athletic types. For 17 year-old or younger, only the fat % is
displayed as the standard value. Muscle mass, TBW, and bone mass values should be used for reference.
Body type assessment based on fat % and muscle mass
Body type is comprehensively assessed in accordance with the fat % and muscle mass.
* Fat % only is displayed for 17 year-old or younger.
Total Body Water (TBW)
Indicates the amount of water included in the body, for example, blood, lymph fluid, intercellular fluids, intracellular fluids, etc. Body
water functions to transport nutrition, collect waste products, and maintain your body temperature at a certain level. Appropriate fat
% ranges are about 55~ 65% for male and 45~60% for female.
ECW/TBW
Body water can be roughly classified as intercellular and intracellular fluids, but the ratio differs depending on each person. It is known
that this ratio is dependent on body composition rate, and obese individuals tend to have more intracellular fluid.
* Not displayed for 17 year-old or younger.
Visceral fat rating
Visceral fat indicates the fat in the internal abdominal cavity and is not easily analysed visually. It can be used for health control by
checking changes in long-term visceral fat ratings.
* Not displayed for 17 year-old or younger.
BMR/BMR analysis
This equipment shows BMR categorized under three levels, namely : less, normal and more relative to average BMR values and
statistical distribution per age group.
* Not displayed for 17 year-old or younger.
Segmental analysis
Fat and muscle segmental analysis. Proportion and muscle training results can be confirmed figuratively. Fat content on the trunk,
which is considered to be closely associated with lifestyle-related diseases, can easily be checked.
* Graphs showing comparisons with the average are not displayed for 17 year-old or younger.
Muscle mass balance
Muscle mass balance between the left and right arms and legs is compared and analyzed. Loss of balance may indicate abnormal
body function.
* Graphs showing comparisons with the average are not displayed for 17 year-old or younger.
Body fat ranges
The amount of fat in the trunk is divided by the lower legs value. Which part of the body (upper or lower segment) contains more fat
can be assessed. As the fat ratio around the abdomen increases, so does this value.
* Not displayed for 17 year-old or younger.
Other information
Reactance/resistance data is displayed. (Analysis results do not affect assessment.)
• Measurement results for scale mode are printed in this segment.
• In the case of 17 year-old or younger, the Rohrer index *** is printed. (*** changes in accordance with the measurement results.)
Printing position adjustment mark
Adjust the position so that the mark on the form and cross symbol align exactly. (
2 . "22" is considered the optimum value, i.e. least susceptible to
page 19.)
