Description
The EMPULSE R20 power assist – a foldable power assist for attendants – provides noticeable relief when a wheelchair needs to be pushed over long distances or up inclines. This compact, lightweight system is suitable for indoor and outdoor use and is easy to transport. Ideal for family members, caregivers and anyone accompanying a wheelchair user who wants greater comfort, consistent assistance and safer handling in everyday life – without complicated installation.
In everyday use, ramps, gentle slopes and long distances are often what make pushing strenuous. The EMPULSE R20 power assist is designed to help in exactly these situations: it provides reliable support and helps conserve energy while making it easier to push smoothly. Thanks to the Click-Fix docking system, you can install the EMPULSE R20 power assist without tools – convenient when the wheelchair needs to be ready for use quickly.
The push-button on/off control makes operation simple. Speed and battery capacity can be checked at any time, while several speed settings (0 / 2 / 3.7 / 5 km/h) let you adjust to your surroundings and preferred pace. Handling remains straightforward on the go: the control unit can be released for transport using the quick release, without disconnecting any plugs. An adjustable position provides an optimal view and greater comfort. The EMPULSE R20 power assist is compatible with most wheelchairs with a box frame and tube diameters of 22–28 mm – a practical everyday solution that makes pushing easier.
