Built for reliability and comfort, the Presence Low Leg Hoist supports a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 227 kg (500 lbs), ensuring it meets the demands of both standard and bariatric patient handling. The powerful electric lifting system, combined with a robust, low-profile chassis, allows caregivers to lift and transfer patients safely and with minimal physical effort, even in confined spaces. Its advanced ergonomic design prioritises both patient comfort and carer safety, delivering smooth, controlled lifting and positioning at every stage of care.
Advanced Design for Professional Environments
The Presence Low Leg Hoist has been developed to meet the highest standards of safety and functionality. The low-leg configuration is particularly beneficial when working with beds or chairs that have limited under-frame clearance. Despite its compact profile, the hoist maintains exceptional lifting height and range, allowing transfers to and from the floor, bed, or chair with ease. Its wide-spanning boom and choice of spreader bar configurations ensure optimal patient positioning and comfort throughout the lifting cycle.
Flexibility and Compatibility
Flexibility is at the core of the Presence hoist’s design. It is compatible with both 4-point and 6-point spreader bars, allowing caregivers to select the appropriate configuration for each patient’s individual needs. This versatility supports a wide range of loop-style slings, accommodating various transfer scenarios from seated to supine positions. The interchangeable spreader bars can be easily attached, ensuring fast adjustments and uninterrupted care delivery.
Ease of Operation and Safety
Designed for intuitive operation, the Presence Low Leg Hoist features an ergonomic handset control that enables precise lifting and lowering at the touch of a button. Its high-performance actuator delivers smooth, controlled motion for maximum comfort and confidence during every transfer. Essential safety mechanisms—including an emergency stop function, manual emergency lowering, and onboard diagnostics—provide caregivers with dependable performance and peace of mind.
The onboard control system monitors battery status and performance, reducing downtime and ensuring reliable operation throughout the working day. The hoist also features durable twin castors with rear brakes for safe positioning and effortless manoeuvrability across a variety of floor surfaces.
