Patient Lifter Hoist with Sling

Weight Capacity: This refers to the maximum load the hoist can safely lift, usually measured in kilograms (kg) or pounds (lbs). Typical weight capacities range from 150 kg to over 300 kg, depending on the model.

Battery Life: Patient lifters are often powered by rechargeable batteries. The battery life can vary depending on factors such as the frequency of use, the patient’s weight, and the type of batteries used. On average, a fully charged battery can provide between 40 to 100 lifts, though this may differ based on usage conditions.

Lift Range: This indicates the hoist's vertical lifting ability, from its lowest to its highest point. It's typically measured in centimeters (cm) or inches (in), and determines how well the hoist can accommodate different transfer heights, such as from beds, chairs, or floors.

Dimensions: The overall size of the hoist, including its height, width, and depth, is crucial for ensuring it can be easily maneuvered in tight spaces or stored when not in use.

Safety Features: Look for essential safety components such as emergency stop buttons, overload protection, and locking mechanisms to guarantee safe operation during use.

Accessories: Some hoists come equipped with additional accessories like slings, scales, or leg supports. It's important to confirm whether these are included or sold separately.
