Braun UVL Under Vehicle Lift

Short Description
A hydraulically powered wheelchair lift which is stored under the vehicle when not in use. It is designed to lift a person sitting in a powered or manual wheelchair into a vehicle. Suitable for installation in most full size vans.

Price Guide
Refer to supplier details for pricing.

More Details
MATERIALS: The hoist is made of steel with a slip resistant aluminium platform tread plate. The cartridge (which encases the platform when not in use) is made of high strength aluminium.

CONTROLS: A hand held four button pendant control operates the lift, raising the wheelchair occupant from ground level to floor level of the vehicle and back again.

OPERATION: The platform is fully automatic. The lift requires at least 12 volts to power it. It features a built in manual back up system. When not in use, the platform is stored underneath the vehicle in a high strength aluminium cartridge, which fully encloses the lift, protecting it from the weather and corrosive elements. There is a manual back up system for use in the event of vehicle electrical fault.

AREAS FOR USE: Due to the placement of the lift when stowed, this lift is mostly suitable for side entry only.

POINTS TO CONSIDER: To ensure insurance cover, the vehicle owner should advise their insurance company of the approved modifications.

Safety Features
The lifter has several safety features as follows:
Edge Barriers
Automatic Roll Stop - The barrier automatically locks into the "up" position before the lift will rise or lower. When the lift stops moving, the roll step folds down to form a ramp for getting on and off the platform.

A wheelchair and occupant restraint system must be installed when transporting a person in a wheelchair.
