The Complete Range of Elite Hoists

The complete range of Elite hoists have been designed and built to BS EN10535 standards. Combined with a sling from our comprehensive range the Elite hoist can provide safe hoisting in the home, hospital environments and many other applications. All models have battery powered and a manual lowering mechanism to ensure safety at all times in the event of a power failure. The overhead tracking enables movement in confined spaces where a manually transported mobile hoist could impede on valuable and limited working space.

Prior to all installations a full site assessment is carried out to enable an accurate written quotation to be provided. Test Valley Mobility trained engineers work to high standards to ensure all installation and service

work is undertaken with the minimum of disruption. A comprehensive

range of spares is held for the Elite hoist and indeed most other makes of hoist. Servicing and extended warranty contracts are available to ensure our products continue to provide safe moving and handling for many years.

To complement the Elite range of hoists, we are able to offer in excess of 15 different types of slings to suit most requirements. In addition to our standard range we are able to tailor make slings to meet the needs of an individual client. Each sling is colour coded for easy identification, has clear washing instruction and carries a unique traceable number. Sling assessments are carried out free of charge after the installation of a hoist.

The Elite Models are: E150, E195, EB150, EB195

Tracking Options
The Elite hoist offers safe transfers from a wheelchair to any number of points with the correct track layout. A simple straight track can achieve access to many rooms providing the property construction allows.

Curves
A curve can be formed where a number of hoisting points are required but are not directly in line with each other

Y Junction
Allows the hoist to branch off to the left or right of the main tracking

Turntable
The turntable allows the hoist to turn off in any four directions at angles of 90 degrees. The turntable can be manually operated or electronically powered depending on your requirements.

Ceiling Track Hoists - Technical Specifications

XY Tracking
Enables full coverage of a room where a number of hoisting points may need to be achieved. This type of system is often used in sensory rooms, soft floor play areas, swimming pools and hospital wards. It also allows room layouts to be changed without the need to reposition tracking.

Track Interlock
Provides a link from a XY tracking system to a second XY or fixed track in an adjoining room.

A Frames
Allows straight lengths of tracking to be supported on floor-mounted frames where the ceiling construction is not suitable. It also provides hoisting for those who only need it on a short-term basis.

Some of these tracking options may involve modifications to the doors headers where possible. This work would be identified at the time of our site survey.
