Acorn Superglide Stair Lift DC power supply system

The Acorn stair lift is powered by direct current (DC), supplied by rechargeable batteries, which deliver a smooth, ultra-quiet and safe ride quality. The batteries are maintenance free and charged by a safe 15 volts AC, which is stepped-down from the domestic mains supply by the transformer.

  • The stair lift remains operative, even if the mains supply is interrupted
  • There is no mains voltage to any of the operating parts of the stair lift
  • There are no troublesome trailing mains cables, as with all AC powered lifts
  • Allows rapid and simple installation, without mess or disruption
  • Delivers smooth and near silent operational characteristics
  • 'Soft Start & Stop' means that there is no jolting or lurching as the lift starts or finishes its journey. This adds to the feeling of safety and stability.
Acorn Superglide Stair Lift Ride Quality

The peerless ride quality is attributed to our unique rail profile and chassis roller system, in conjunction with the DC Power and rack and pinion drive systems. Typically, other stair lifts feature four, or sometimes six chassis rollers and a box section rail. The Acorn Superglide stair lift has eight rollers, giving a surface contact area at least four times greater than competitor products, which, coupled with our unique double tube rail profile, gives the smoothest, quietest and most luxurious ride quality currently available, and a superb feeling of safety and stability when using the stair lift.

Acorn Superglide Stair Lift Safety Features

Our stair lift has an impressive array of safety features built in as standard. These include:

  • Infra red remote control
  • Swivel seat with locking catch. The swivel seat ensure easy mounting and dismounting from the stair lift. The lift will not operate unless the seat is in the correct riding position.
  • Pressure sensitive safety surfaces that prevent the lift from colliding with any obstruction on the stairway. These are located around the footrest, and on the top and bottom of the carriage
  • Electronic and mechanical braking systems, to eliminate the possibility of an uncontrolled descent.
  • Limit sensors to ensure that the stair lift always stops in the correct position
  • Diagnostic status lights - Mounted on one arm of the seat, these show clearly when the lift is in the normal operating position, and also provide invaluable diagnostic information in the unlikely event of a fault with your stair lift.
Choice of Control

The Acorn Superglide Stair Lift is controlled by, either the mechanical 'joystick' fitted to the seat arm, or by way of the infra red remote control handset, two of which are supplied. The mechanical controls over-ride the remote controls. The remote controls are ideal when there are 2 users in the house so that the lift can be 'sent' or 'called' up - and downstairs. The wireless design means that there is no unsightly wall mounted wiring or control stations.

Acorn Superglide Stair Lift Accessories

There are a number of accessories available to complement the Acorn Superglide Stair Lift. These accessories are designed and manufactured to provide comfortable, practical and cost effective solutions for individuals with additional mobility and physical flexibility difficulties, or sometimes for more complex stair configurations.


 

These accessories comprise (click on link for more):

  • Seat Belts - either an inertia reel lap harness or static type, 3 point fixing, over shoulder harness.
  • Sit and Stand Frame - allowing the user to ascend/descend in the standing or seated position and featuring a folding steady/security bar.
  • Perch Model - allowing the user to ascend/descend in the semi-seated position, being particularly useful for individuals who have limited knee articulation, or for applications where the stairway is particularly narrow.
  • Hinged rail - The lower section of the rail folds up and out of the way when not in use, allowing greater access at the foot of the stairs. A good example of the application of a hinged rail is when there is a doorway at or near the foot of the stairs, and where a fixed rail would obstruct the doorway.
  • Bridging Platform - The bridging platform can offer a quick, cost effective solution to certain types of curved staircase. Good examples are winding turns right at the top of the stairs, or perhaps a turn on a flat landing where there are 2 or 3 steps after the turn.
