The newer BWA 2.0S combines detailed water results with composition and offers a shorter test than the original BWA. Testing can also take place while lying or seated. It is mainly intended for care where a professional follows water distribution and muscle quantity over time.
Tanita SC-240MA: when to consider it
SC-240MA is a standing BIA platform analyser. It uses one 50 kHz frequency and a 200 kg scale. The manual’s specification table lists weight, body-fat percentage and BMI; separate arm and trunk results are not documented.

Fat-free mass is not pure muscle mass. A single result is not a diagnosis. Different devices and similarly named metrics may use definitions that are not interchangeable.
