Motorised ceiling-mounted patient hoist with a safe working load of 272 kg (600 lb). The single-motor gantry travels along a fixed straight or curved ceiling rail, with a rechargeable battery allowing operation during power interruptions. Compatible with Arjo and most generic sling types.
Ceiling hoists eliminate the double-handling and floor-space requirements of mobile hoists, which is critical in compact care home bathrooms and bedrooms. The fixed track removes the positioning skill required with mobile hoists, reducing the risk of sling or hoist misuse. LOLER 1998 requires a six-monthly thorough examination of all lifting equipment.
SWL 272 kg; single motor; battery backup; straight and curved track compatible; track span up to 5 m per straight section; scale option available; LOLER-inspectable.
