WAS Lift Assist
For ergonomic, back-friendly work in the emergency services
Handling carry chairs is part of everyday life in the emergency services – and often involves significant physical strain. This is where WAS Lift Assist comes in. The fully electric lifting device automatically transports the carry chair from ground level directly into the side compartment of the ambulance. And back out again. Without any strenuous lifting.
This provides noticeable relief for emergency personnel, reduces the risk of injury in day-to-day operations and contributes to the long-term health and operational readiness of staff. For employers, this means: fewer absences due to illness, greater operational safety and a clear demonstration of care for their own staff.
LIFT ASSIST AT A GLANCE:
- Fully electric lifting device, no more strenuous lifting of the carry chair
- Convenient loading and unloading directly from ground level into the external storage compartment
- Significant reduction in strain on emergency personnel during daily operations
- Reduced risk of injury and long-term protection of staff health
- Intuitive operation via buttons directly on the access hatch
- Sensor-assisted height adjustment for different loading heights (kerb/road surface)
- Compatible with all standard carry chairs, no special solution required
Three advantages. One system. Lasting relief.
The WAS Lift Assist combines three key strengths that fundamentally simplify the handling of stretcher chairs in the emergency services. A fully electric lifting mechanism takes over the physical work involved in loading. An intuitive button control makes operation reliably simple, even under stress. And sensor-assisted height adjustment ensures that the system works at every scene – regardless of the ground surface. The result: a smoother process, less strain on the crew and more focus on what matters.
- Fully electric lifting mechanism: Lifting without effort. Automatic.
- Simple and intuitive button control: Easy to use. Always reliable.
- Sensor-assisted height adjustment and compatibility: Flexible. Compatible. Ready for use anywhere.
