Wash basin bracket electric motor or gas cylinder
The wash basin with a bracket powered by electric motor or gas cylinder is suitable for all age groups and in locations where many people share the wash basin. This is the case in hospitals, residential homes and also private homes where others besides people with special needs use the bathroom.

Method Of Use

Electric Motor
The height of the wash basin can be adjusted by using the lever control.
The lever control is mounted at the end of a fixed rail which can provide support and function as a towel rail.
The standard position of the operating lever is on the right side but it can also be placed on the left.
The bracket allows the height of the wash basin to be adjusted by up to 300 mm.
Also available with remote control instead of lever control.

Gas Cylinder
The in built gas cylinder counterbalances the weight of the wash basin. When the lock is released by lifting the lever, the wash basin becomes almost "weightless" and can be moved up and down by the user or carer. A small amount of pressure is required to move the basin.
The lever control is mounted at the end of a fixed rail which can provide support and function as a towel rail. The standard position of the operating lever is on the right side but it can also be placed on the left. The bracket allows the height of the wash basin to be adjusted by up to 300 mm.

Manual Wash Basin Bracket
Suitable for periodic adjustment
The wash basin with a manual bracket is suitable primarily for situations in which the height needs to be changed only occasionally. For more frequent changes and for users who need to both sit and stand, the bracket with either an electric motor or gas cylinder is recommended. The user cannot adjust the height of the manual wash basin bracket, as the full weight of the basin needs to be lifted to achieve adjustment.
