EVAC+CHAIR 300H MK5 Emergency Evacuation Chair

FAQs (10)
The Evac+Chair Emergency Evacuation Chair enables the safe, controlled evacuation of people with mobility impairments in emergency situations down a flight of stairs. This can be achieved with only a single operator. The 300H MK5 Evac+Chair builds on the success of its predecessor, the 300H MK4 Evac+Chair, to provide improved functionality whilst maintaining the same easy operation.
The chair features a safety belt, a forehead restraint for optional use, and a sling-style seat to ensure the passenger is sitting back in the chair and cannot be tipped forward. The Emergency Evacuation Chair's wheels (redesigned, and strengthened for increased stability) are supported by specially designed friction belts which ensure the chair does not slip or accelerate too quickly while descending a flight of stairs. The distribution of the chair's weight and load ensures that the descent is smooth and comfortable for both the user and the operator.
- Ideal for areas such as offices, care settings, hotels, entertainment venues, and hospitals
- Single person operation with double handed anti-slip grip for improved stability
- For use on regular stairs (28° - 40°) with a maximum passenger load of 400lbs / 182kg
- Upgraded kickstand with re-positioned wheels, distributes weight more evenly
- Padded material and enhanced safety belt for user comfort
- Provided with photoluminescent signs, hooks for wall mounting, and dust cover to protect the evacuation chair
- Supplied with simplified graphical instructions and user guide
- 5 Year Warranty (based on service and maintenance)
- CE marked and TÜV Certified
- The Evac+Chair 300H MK5 Evacuation Chair is registered with the MHRA
- DDA compliant product and manufactured in the UK by Evac+Chair
- Class I Medical Device and regulated under PUWER
- Annual EVAC+CHAIR servicing available
- Also available to purchase with on site Evacuation Chair Training
As well as providing an ethical solution to aid users in evacuation, the Evac+Chair also helps businesses meet many current legislation requirements, such as:
- Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 - Means of escape
- Building Regulations Parts B and M - Building use and access
- BS5588-8:1999 - Providing disabled people with measures to be assisted in an emergency
- Equality Act 2009 - Ensuring that disabled people are not at a disadvantage compared to those that are not disabled
- DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) - Providing adequate access and facilities for any disabled person who may enter a building
Evac+Chairs are Class I Medical Devices with their installation and use regulated under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER). Employers, self-employed people, and those employed to supervise or manage equipment are responsible for ensuring that a reasonable amount of staff are adequately trained to use Evac+Chairs safely, that the chairs are annually serviced by a qualified engineer, and that they are regularly inspected by a competent worker.

Q. How strong do I need to be to operate the Evac+Chair?
A.
Because the chair operates on via friction belts, strength is less of a concern than being properly trained. Adding a person's weight will result in a downwards movement without lifting. When using the chair to transport someone downstairs, it is important to note that you should be pushing down towards your toes, not pulling back or pushing forwards as with a shopping trolley.
Q. How many operators are necessary?
A.
The 300H model is a single person operation chair, whereas the 600H and Ibex Transeat are both 2-person operation.
Q. Can the chair go up stairs?
A.
Yes, in the case of 600H and Ibex, but no for the 300H.
Q. How much does the Evac+Chair weigh?
A.
300H 9.5kg
300H AMB 10.5kg
600H 11.0kg
Ibex 14.5kg
Q. How can I stop the chair if I’ve already started going down stairs?
A.
Show All By pushing down on the handles and stopping your own downward progress will stop the descent of the Evac+Chair. Training is vital to ensure that you know how to use the Evac+Chair safely and with confidence in the event of a fire.

Product appeared good but not suitable for the purpose When selling this item it may be worth asking people for the width of their stair. This item was required for a football stadium and the width of the stairs are not standard size, however there is no indication that this would not be suitable for our use. The service was good and you did kindly arrange for a refund.
