Netti V EL
High five for the perfect fit with electric functions!
Netti V combines the advantages of an active and a comfort wheelchair. This configuration has electric adjustment of the recline, the seat tilt and the leg supports, making changes in seating position easier to handle for user or attendant.
The wheelchair has many adjustment possibilities for perfect fitting. Despite changes in the user's body measurement and/or functional level, there is no need to change to another wheelchair.
Flexible seat depth and width
Flexible seat height
Perfect balancing point
Built-in leg abduction
Unique customisation to torso
This innovative design makes it easy to adapt the chair to changing user needs or new users - often even without having to add new accessories.
Netti V EL and Netti III EL are the only manual wheelchairs on the market which can be fitted with electrical control of seat, back and leg support adjustment.
Netti V has a unique seat height solution. We can offer a seat height of 386 mm and still mount 24” main wheels and 7” front wheels. This makes it possible to maintain good driving characteristics and enable hand or foot propelling of the chair.
This ensures a great driving experience!
Over the time the health status of the user might change. An active user, who used to hand propel the chair, might be in need of help from an attendant to stay mobile. The seat height can then be changed up to 486 mm by changing the wheel position, but with the same parts.
In other words:
- 70 mm seat height adjustment without change of wheel position, wheel size, or the need of any extra parts.
- 100 mm seat height adjustment without change of wheel size, or the need of any extra parts.
- 169 mm seat height adjustment when changing wheel size and position.
Netti V EL offers many built-in adjustment options making the wheelchair flexible to changing needs - or new users:
Netti V provides a unique seat height flexibility, which makes it possible to change the seat height
- to fit multiple activity levels without changing parts
- to have low seat height with large wheels for comfortable driving
- without changing wheel position
The seat height adjustment thereby allows the wheelchair to follow the progression of the user’s illness, from All-round wheelchair propelled by foot or hand to Comfort wheelchair.
If you use the wheelchair in its standard seat width, the total width will be 210 mm wider than the seat width.
If you adjust the seat width to the max, total width will be actual frame seat width +260 mm.
Example:
450 mm wheelchair adjusted in seat width 450 mm has a total width of 660 mm
450 mm wheelchair adjsuted in seat width 500 mm has a total width of 710 mm
Stepless sideway adjustment of the head support
To accomodate for an asymmetrical head position, the sidewards adjustable head support adapter can easily be moved on the push bar by loosening the star wheel.
Built-in leg abduction and extension pieces
For Netti V we also offer many leg support solutions. Common for all are that the extension pieces can be adjusted in width in case the user has mobility or positioning challenges at the legs and/or hip/pelvis. The built-in stepless leg abduction of up to 25 mm per side is standard.
For the fitting, the use of the optional pelvic positioner guide might also be of importance to secure that the hips are equally supported.
Adjust to back curvatures
Netti V uses the well-known adjustable back straps for optimum fit to the users back shape.
Furthermore, the back tubes can be positioned in an outward, inward or straight position to fit narrow shoulders (A-shape) or broad shoulders (V-shape) or even an asymmetric position.
Netti V is designed to be easy to use in everyday life as well as when the wheelchair is to be fitted for the user upon delivery. This makes it easy to handle for all parties involved.
Just to mention some features that makes this chair extraordinary easy to use:
- There are only 2 handles - tilt/recline and drum brake handle in one
- Foot-operated anti tippers
- Readable scales for easy adjustments
- Color-marked adjustment points
The same wheelchair can be used for a long time
Due to the design of Netti V, the same wheelchair can be used for a long time. There is no need to change wheelchair when the user’s activity level changes or by minor changes in body messurements.
For users with specific challenges like e.g.
- Asymmetries like scoliosis
