Acorn Super-glide
Stair Lift DC power supply system
The Acorn stair lift is powered by direct current (DC),
supplied by rechargeable batteries, which deliver a smooth,
ultra-quiet and safe ride quality. The batteries are
maintenance free and charged by a safe 15 volts AC, which is
stepped-down from the domestic mains supply by the
transformer.
* The stair lift remains operative, even if the mains supply
is interrupted
* There is no mains voltage to any of the operating parts of
the stair lift
* There are no troublesome trailing mains cables, as with
all AC powered lifts
* Allows rapid and simple installation, without mess or
disruption
* Delivers smooth and near silent operational
characteristics
* 'Soft Start & Stop' means that there is no jolting or
lurching as the lift starts or finishes its journey.
* This adds to the feeling of safety and stability.
* Acorn Super-glide Stair Lift Ride Quality
The peerless ride quality is attributed to our unique rail
profile and chassis roller system, in conjunction with the
DC Power and rack and pinion drive systems. Typically, other
stair lifts feature four, or sometimes six chassis rollers
and a box section rail. The Acorn Super-glide stair lift has
eight rollers, giving a surface contact area at least four
times greater than competitor products, which, coupled with
our unique double tube rail profile, gives the smoothest,
quietest and most luxurious ride quality currently
available, and a superb feeling of safety and stability when
using the stair lift.
Acorn Super-Glide Stair Lift Safety Features
Our stair lift has
an impressive array of safety features built in as standard.
These include:
| |
Infra red
remote control |
| |
|
| |
Swivel seat
with locking catch. The swivel seat ensure easy
mounting and dismounting from the stair lift. The lift
will not operate unless the seat is in the correct
riding position. |
| |
|
| |
Pressure
sensitive safety surfaces that prevent the lift
from colliding with any obstruction on the stairway.
These are located around the footrest, and on the top
and bottom of the carriage |
| |
|
| |
Electronic
and mechanical braking systems, to eliminate the
possibility of an uncontrolled descent. |
| |
|
| |
Limit
sensors to ensure that the stair lift always
stops in the correct position |
| |
|
| |
Diagnostic
status lights - Mounted on one arm of the seat,
these show clearly when the lift is in the normal
operating position, and also provide invaluable
diagnostic information in the unlikely event of a fault
with your stair lift. |
Choice of
Control
The Acorn Super-glide Stair Lift is controlled by, either
the mechanical 'joystick' fitted to the seat arm, or by way
of the infra red remote control handset, two of which are
supplied. The mechanical controls over-ride the remote
controls. The remote controls are ideal when there are 2
users in the house so that the lift can be 'sent' or
'called' up - and downstairs. The wireless design means that
there is no unsightly wall mounted wiring or control
stations.
Acorn Super-glide Stair Lift Accessories
There are a number of accessories available to complement
the Acorn Super-glide Stair Lift. These accessories are
designed and manufactured to provide comfortable, practical
and cost effective solutions for individuals with additional
mobility and physical flexibility difficulties, or sometimes
for more complex stair configurations.
Seat Belts - either an inertia reel lap harness
or static type, 3 point fixing, over shoulder harness.
Sit and Stand Frame - allowing the user to
ascend/descend in the standing or seated position and
featuring a folding steady/security bar.
Perch Model - allowing the user to
ascend/descend in the semi-seated position, being
particularly useful for individuals who have limited
knee articulation, or for applications where the
stairway is particularly narrow.
Hinged rail - The lower section of the rail
folds up and out of the way when not in use, allowing
greater access at the foot of the stairs. A good example
of the application of a hinged rail is when there is a
doorway at or near the foot of the stairs, and where a
fixed rail would obstruct the doorway.
Bridging Platform - The bridging platform can
offer a quick, cost effective solution to certain types
of curved staircase. Good examples are winding turns
right at the top of the stairs, or perhaps a turn on a
flat landing where there are 2 or 3 steps after the
turn.
