Useful Information
Principle of body composition calculation
Body fat has low electric conductivity
The BF510 measures the body fat percentage by the Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) method. Muscles, blood vessels
and bones are body tissues with a high water content that conducts electricity easily. Body fat is tissue that has little
electric conductivity. The BF510 sends an extremely weak electrical current of 50 kHz and less than 500 µA through
your body to determine the amount of fat tissue. This weak electrical current is not felt while operating the BF510.
In order for the scale to determine body composition, it uses the electrical impedance, along with your height,
weight, age and gender information to generate results based on OMRON’s data of body composition.
Measures the whole body to avoid the influence of fluctuations
During the course of a day, the amount of water in the body tends to gradually shift to the lower limbs. This is why
there is a tendency for the legs and ankles to swell in the evening or at night. The ratio of water in the upper body
and lower body is different in the morning and evening, and this means that the electrical impedance of the body
also varies. Since the BF510 uses electrodes for both hands and feet to take measurements, it can reduce the
influence of these fluctuations on measurement results.
Recommended measurement times
Understanding the normal changes in your body fat percentage can help you in preventing or reducing obesity.
Being aware of the times when the body fat percentages shift within your own daily schedule will assist you in
obtaining an accurate trending of your body fat. It is recommended to use this unit in the same environment and
daily circumstances. (See chart)

Avoid taking measurements under the following conditions
If a measurement is made under these physical conditions, the estimated body fat percentage may differ
significantly from the actual one because the water content in the body is changing.
Avoid taking measurements:
- immediately after vigorous exercise
Please wait for 2 hours or more
- after a bath or sauna
- after drinking alcohol
- after drinking lots of water
- after eating a meal

Useful Information
What is BMI (Body Mass Index)?
BMI uses the following simple formula to indicate the ratio between weight and height of a person.
BMI = weight (kg) / height (m) / height (m)
The OMRON BF510 uses the height information stored in your personal profile number or when entering
information in the Guest Mode to calculate your BMI classification.
If the fat level revealed by BMI is higher than the international standard, there is an increased likelihood of common
diseases. However, not all types of fat can be revealed by BMI.
What is Body Fat Percentage?
Body fat percentage refers to the amount of body fat mass in regards to the total body weight expressed as a
percentage.
Body fat percentage (%) = {Body fat mass (kg) / Body weight (kg)} × 100
Our device uses BI method to estimate your body fat percentage.
Depending on where fat is distributed in the body, it is classified as visceral fat or subcutaneous fat.
What is Visceral Fat Level?
Visceral fat = fat surrounding internal organs
Too much visceral fat is thought to be closely linked to increased levels of fat in the
bloodstream, which can lead to common diseases such as hyperlipidemia and diabetes,
which impairs the ability of insulin to transfer energy from the bloodstream and using it in
cells. In order to prevent or improve conditions of common diseases, it is important to try
and reduce visceral fat levels to an acceptable level. People with high visceral fat levels
Sample Visceral Fat
(MRI image)
tend to have large stomachs. However, this is not always the case and high visceral fat
levels can lead to metabolically obese. Metabolically obese (visceral obesity with normal
weight) represents fat levels that are higher than average, even if a person’s weight is at
or below the standard for their height.
What is Subcutaneous Fat?
Subcutaneous fat = fat below the skin
Subcutaneous fat not only accumulates around the stomach but also around the upper
arms, hips and thighs, and can cause a distortion of the body's proportions. Although not
directly linked to increased risk of disease, it is thought to increase pressure on the heart
and other complications. Subcutaneous fat is not displayed in this unit, but is included in
the body fat percentage.
Sample Subcutaneous
EN
Fat (MRI image)
What is Skeletal Muscle?
Muscle is divided into two types, muscle in internal organs, such as the heart, and skeletal muscle attached to
bones that is used to move the body. Skeletal muscle can be increased through exercise and other activity.
Increasing the ratio of skeletal muscle means that body can burn energy more easily, which means that it is less
likely to turn to fat, and makes it easier to lead an energetic lifestyle.
The reason calculated results may differ from actual body fat percentage
The body fat percentage measured by this unit may significantly differ from the actual body fat percentage in
the following situations:
Elderly people / People with a fever / Body builders or highly trained athletes / Patients undergoing dialysis /
Patients with osteoporosis who have very low bone density / Pregnant women / People with swelling
These differences may be related to changing ratios of body fluid and/or body composition.

Important information regarding Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC)
With the increased number of electronic devices such as PCs and mobile (cellular) telephones, medical
devices in use may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference from other devices.
Electromagnetic interference may result in incorrect operation of the medical device and create a potentially
unsafe situation.
Medical devices should also not interfere with other devices.
In order to regulate the requirements for EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility) with the aim of preventing
unsafe product situations, the EN60601-1-2 standard has been implemented. This standard defines the levels
of immunity to electromagnetic interferences as well as maximum levels of electromagnetic emissions for
medical devices.
This medical device manufactured by OMRON Healthcare conforms to this
EN60601-1-2:2001 standard for both immunity and emissions.
Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed:
Do not use mobile (cellular) telephones and other devices, which generate strong electrical or electromagnetic
fields, near the medical device. This may result in incorrect operation of the unit and create a potentially unsafe
situation. Recommendation is to keep a minimum distance of 7 m.
Verify correct operation of the device in case the distance is shorter.
Further documentation in accordance with EN60601-1-2:2001 is available at OMRON Healthcare Europe at the
