Economy Mobile Patient Hoist

Detailed product information

The Economy Mobile Patient Hoist features a sturdy tubular steel frame to deliver stability and durability for daily use. It supports a maximum user weight of 226 kg (35.5 stone) and offers a lifting range from 750 mm to 1800 mm, which covers most transfer heights between beds, chairs and wheelchairs. The unit meets BS EN ISO 10535:2006, giving reassurance that it conforms to recognised safety and performance standards for patient lifts. Its size and strength make it suitable for both home care and professional environments.

Operation is straightforward with electric and manual controls for height adjustment, so carers can choose powered lifting or manual override as needed. An accessible emergency stop is fitted for immediate halting, and a backup battery keeps the hoist usable during power interruptions. The hoist rides on four swivelling castors for easy positioning in confined spaces and works with standard loop slings to give flexibility over sling choice.

Optional extras include a digital crane scale with a large-print LCD for weighing bed-bound patients where required. The hoist is straightforward to maintain with routine checks of moving parts and battery condition, and its construction focuses on reliability and ease of use rather than unnecessary complexity.
