Easy Overcoming of Barriers Even with Electric Wheelchairs
The ALTECH Z400 vertical platform lift offers an ideal solution for individuals using mechanical or electric wheelchairs to overcome obstacles ranging from a few centimeters to a height of 200 cm. Thanks to its hydraulic scissor drive, the platform has a load capacity of up to 400 kg, making it perfect for transporting wheelchair users with heavy electric wheelchairs.
The platform can be installed indoors or outdoors. Due to the placement of the drive in a recess, the ramp at the lower stop is completely level, allowing users to easily roll directly onto the platform with their wheelchairs. With standard floor dimensions of 1470 × 1100 mm, even larger wheelchairs can fit on the platform. The lifting of the platform is powered by a hydraulic motor with a power output of 0.8 kW, which is supplied by a standard 230 V outlet.
Thanks to its battery-free drive, the platform can be installed not only in homes but also in high-traffic areas such as offices, schools, cultural institutions, or long-term care facilities, where an increased number of wheelchair users can be expected without the need to wait for battery recharging. The platform is typically installed near stairs, but it can also be designed for locations away from stairs.
Assurance of Safety
The vertical platform lift for individuals using wheelchairs does not require external cladding due to its low lift height; however, it meets all standards and regulations applicable to platforms for individuals with mobility impairments. If the client is interested, the platform can be equipped with a roof or complete cladding.
To ensure maximum safety for transported individuals, the platforms are equipped with safety features such as safety doors with locks that cannot be opened when the platform is not at a designated stop, a safety edge that stops the platform when activated, an emergency STOP button that ensures immediate halting of the platform if needed, and handrails that can be held onto if necessary.
The platform floor is made of textured sheet metal, which prevents unintended slipping even in rainy conditions. The section with the motor and lifting mechanism is covered with a retractable curtain that protects these parts from dirt and damage, and individuals from injury. The platform doors can be equipped with electric motors for automatic opening.
Possibility of Individual Adjustments
Each platform is custom-made for each customer, allowing us to easily modify it according to your specific wishes, whether it concerns the desired lift height, the color of individual parts, the material of the infill barriers (safety glass, polycarbonate, painted metal, or stainless steel), or others.
Easy to Use
The operation of the Z400 platform, designed for individuals with disabilities, is very simple, and you can learn to operate it immediately. The platform is controlled by just a few buttons located directly on the platform, allowing the transported person to operate it independently without the need for additional assistance.
To call the platform to a stop, buttons are installed at each stop—similar to how a regular lift operates.
You will be familiarized with the operation of the platform immediately after installation, where our technicians will provide training and answer any questions you may have. A user manual in Czech will also be provided, and if any issues arise, we are available on our customer service line.
Simple Installation
Installing the platform is relatively simple compared to traditional lifts. While conventional lifts require space for a machine room and other technical facilities, the vertical Z400 platform only requires a concrete pit of 370 mm depth and an electrical supply. The complete installation takes only a few hours.
