The Rifton E-Pacer is an exciting addition to the Pacer family, combining the powerful electric lift column and secure body support of Rifton’s TRAM with the key gait training features of the classic Pacer.
It’s strong and stable frame can accommodate users up to 196 cm and 160 kg, resulting in a life-changing solution for clients who have grown too large or too dependent to be safely transferred into manual gait trainers.
The E-Pacer can perform the sit-to-stand transfer that is part of every gait training session with no lifting on the part of the carer, along with expandable legs which can widen the base legs for patients needing extra step width or to get up close to a wheelchair prior to a transfer. Attaching the additional thigh straps to the E-Pacer’s innovative body support system enables the carer to move a client in a seat-to-seat transfer.
Innovative castors control both speed, by a variable drag dial, and direction of the E-pacer, which can prevent involuntary backward movement.
USER SIZE GUIDE:
User weight or height must not exceed 160 kg and 196 cm.
