EASY TO USE
With the time constraints of caregivers today, a patient lift
must be simple and easy to use in order to be efficient and
reduce injuries. The Ergolift is ergonomically designed to
make patient transfers simple with such ideas as: wheels that
roll easily, a narrow profile to get into tight areas, long
handles offering various grip choices for the tall and short
and a contoured design to allow a clear walk space.
HIGH WEIGHT CAPACITY
With the increasing number of heavy and obese patients, you
need a lift that will help your caregivers in those special
circumstances. With a 180 kg- 270 kg (400-600 lbs.) capacity,
the Ergolift is certified to ensure that you are able to
handle your heaviest patients.
LIFTING RANGE
The Ergolift is designed to work in all situations. Lift a
resident from the floor without manually lifting their
shoulders while at the same time the Ergolift will transfer a
resident onto the highest stretcher or bed.
MOTORIZED BASE
Getting around large chairs or tight spaces is not a problem
with the powered base. With a simple press of a button, the
base will open to exactly the position you need. This powered
base moves smoothly and gently and helps keep the lift stable-
even when bumped. This feature is standard on our Ergolift -
no additional charge!
INTEGRATED SMART CHARGER
Having the lift ready to use all the time, anytime is
extremely important. The high capacity batteries are stored in
the base of the lift and allow approximately 110 transfers
between charges- more than one days work. Since the batteries
are not a memory type, the lift can be plugged in for any
length of time, short or long, making it always ready for use.
The charger is ultra-efficient and fully charges a low battery
within 2 hours- though 15 minutes is enough to transfer that
extra resident. The large batteries and smart charger work
together to ensure your lift is always ready to go.
LOW BATTERY DETECTION SYSTEM
To avoid a situation where the lift would not have enough
power to perform a transfer, the caregiver is warned when the
batteries are low - both with an audible "beep" and a flashing
light. In addition to the low battery warning, the system will
not allow a new transfer to begin should the batteries lack
enough power, protecting them from permanent damage. However,
if a transfer is already in progress when batteries loose
power, the system is smart enough to ensure the patient can be
safely lowered.
DURABLE CONTROLS
It is extremely important that the lift be operational at all
times. Accidents happen so our handsets are built sturdy and
watertight. Our handsets are custom made to ensure they are
able to withstand the bumps of normal, everyday use. Emergency
controls located on the lift itself are easily accessible
should the handset fail, allowing the patient to be safely
lowered into a chair.
SOFT START AND STOP MOVEMENT
The patient's comfort is extremely important. The soft start
and stop electronics in the Ergolift ensures the lift moves
gently without sudden or jolting movement.
FAST TRANSFER SPEED
In the interest of making caregiver tasks more efficient, the
fast, efficient motor transfers the patient with a comfortable
pace. The lift operates quietly, so patients are more secure
and relaxed when being transferred.
SAFETY FEATURES
The Voyager Series lift has several features for emergency
circumstances. The emergency stop, manual emergency lowering
tab as well as the safety testing below ensure the patient and
caregiver is protected and safe.
CSA 601.1/UL2601-1 & ISO 10535
CSA 601.1/UL2601-1 & ISO 10535 -This certification is provided
by an independent third party and ensures the lift and
charging system are 100% safe. The Voyager Series lift is in
accordance with the new European standard that applies to
equipment that transfers persons. The Voyager series lifts
have passed a series of tests which, among other things,
ensures the lift can hold 2.5 times its capacity and that the
motor will do more than 10,000 cycles and still maintain its
strength. |
