InBody | 270 | Refurbished
The InBody 270 Body Composition Analyzer is a refurbished unit, the least expensive way into a professional InBody platform and the same eight point tactile electrode device clinics bought new, at well under what a new analyzer costs. Expect the odd cosmetic blemish or minor scratch on the housing, and expect the measurement side to work the way it always did. One thing worth knowing before you order: this is our refurbishment. InBody doesn't run a certified-pre-owned program on its professional analyzers, so the work and the description here are ours, and quantities are limited to the units we have on hand.
On measurement the InBody 270 is the shortest rung of the five analyzers we stock. It sends two frequencies, 20 kHz and 100 kHz, through each of five body segments for ten impedance measurements, in a test that takes 15 seconds, over a 10 to 250 kg range. It reports weight, total body water, lean body mass, body fat mass, skeletal muscle mass, percent body fat, segmental lean analysis, body composition history, lean body mass control, basal metabolic rate, visceral fat level, an InBody Score, a skeletal muscle index with its history, and an impedance graph. Phase angle is the one output it leaves off the sheet, which is the clearest reason a buyer steps up to the InBody 270S, and the 270S adds a third frequency and five more measurements along with it.
Where the data goes
A test on the InBody 270 takes 15 seconds, and what happens to the result afterwards decides whether an analyzer earns its floor space in a working clinic. On this device that means a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth link into InBody's database software, an internal store of up to 100,000 results, and a printer at the end of the chain.
The numbers
The condition, the measurement figures and the footprint, in the order a clinic tends to ask about them before a refurbished analyzer goes into a room.
Closer look
Bioelectrical impedance analysis sends a small alternating current through the body and measures the opposition it meets on the way. The InBody 270 sends 20 kHz and 100 kHz through each of five body segments, the right arm, the left arm, the trunk, the right leg and the left leg, and two frequencies across five segments is ten impedance measurements in a 15 second test, the fastest of the five analyzers here. Two frequencies is one more than a single-frequency consumer scale carries, and the eight point tactile hand and foot arrangement is the same layout the InBody 270S uses, with the frequency count as the difference passing through it.
The InBody 270 reports body composition analysis, muscle and fat analysis, segmental lean analysis, body composition history, lean body mass control, basal metabolic rate, visceral fat level, an InBody Score, a skeletal muscle index with its history, and an impedance graph. Segmental lean analysis is the part a trainer uses most, because it gives a lean figure for each arm, each leg and the trunk separately. Blood pressure values can join the sheet when a compatible InBody blood pressure device is paired with the analyzer. Phase angle is absent here, along with intracellular water, extracellular water, the ECW/TBW ratio, dry lean mass and segmental fat analysis; the InBody 270S adds Whole Body Phase Angle on a third frequency, and the InBody 580 reports phase angle for all five segments.
Compare
All five run multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis across five body segments, and they separate on how many frequencies they send and how many readings come back. The InBody 580 sits at the top of the ladder with four frequencies and twenty impedance measurements, and the refurbished InBody 270 at the bottom with two frequencies and ten.
