At a Glance PRICE FROM £3760

  • Auxiliary drive for Otto Bock manual wheelchairs
  • Wheelchair is driven using a joystick
  • Individually adaptable
  • Easy handling
  • Wheelchair is foldable with drive wheels attached.
  • Manual wheels can be used and no tools are required or wires to unplug!

Simply insert and lock the auxiliary drive z50 – and right away, your patient can once again cover longer distances without problems. Depending on arm power and need, he or she can simply turn the z50 on or off using the joystick and move the wheelchair manually when desired. The auxiliary drive increases the patient’s activity radius and opens up newfound freedom.

Proven VSI Control Unit

The z50 automatically contacts itself and can be activated with a joystick using the proven VSI control unit. Its reliable, conventional drive technology is very powerful. The swinging anti-tipper helps to overcome curbs and therefore makes the z50 especially suitable for daily use.

The wheelchair remains collapsible after the drive wheels are installed. The patented hinge lock makes it possible to disassemble the z50 in just a few easy steps for transportation and changing to standard wheels.

The z50 is operated using 2 x maintenance-free gel batteries, achieves a maximum speed of six km/h, and has a range of approximately twelve kilometres. The allowable load is 125 kilograms.

The z50 is not only suitable for converting most of Otto Bock manual wheelchairs, but also for many other makes please ask.

Z50 JOYSTICK

The Z50 is joystick controlled with rechargeable battery pack located underneath the seat. The battery can be charged by plugging the charger into the joystick overnight. An optional accessory is available enabling the battery to be charged away from the wheelchair. Most of our customers purchase an additional battery which means one is on charge whilst the wheelchair is out being used.

When traditional self propelling is required you simply move the blue lever on the outside of the hub motor to disengage the drive.

When the motors are not required simply remove the Z50 from the wheelchair and replace with traditional quick release manual wheels (very easy to do)

E-SUPPORT

At a Glance: PRICES FROM £2995

  • Servo-supported drive for adaptation of manual wheelchairs
  • Easy to install
  • Also suitable for other makes
  • Two drive wheels complete with integrated drive and electronics
  • Foldable with adapted drive wheels
  • Nickel metal hydride battery also as interchangeable battery

The E-Support servo-supported auxiliary drive for manual wheelchairs improves the mobility of your customer. It optimally supports your customer’s independent locomotion in the wheelchair. With an additional therapeutic effect: Activity is promoted by arm movements.

Motors Increase Manual Power

The E-Support is operated via the push rings. Since both drive wheels are fully equipped with the drive and electronics, you can install them on your customer’s manual wheelchair in just a few easy steps. And the wheelchair can be folded to its normal size even after the drive wheels are installed.

The servo principle is the decisive factor: Highly sensitive sensors measure the manual arm power applied to the drive wheels and then boost it electronically. We offer the E-Support in two versions. In the first version, the electric motors integrated in the wheel hubs provide 60 percent of the power; in the second version, the driver provides 25 percent and the E-Support 75 percent.

The range of the E-Support is approximately 15 kilometres. It is operated using a rechargeable nickel metal hydride battery which is also available as a replaceable battery.

The E-Support is not only suitable for manual wheelchairs made by Otto Bock, but also for other makes. However, the auxiliary drive is not compatible with drum brakes, one-hand operation, wheelbase extensions, and insertable side panels.
