Sunlift Major Electric Patient Hoist – 175kg Heavy-Duty Medical Lifter for Hospitals & Professional Home Care
The Sunlift Major is a high-performance patient handling system engineered for the most demanding healthcare environments. From busy hospital wards in Dubai to private villas in Abu Dhabi, this hoist is designed to provide the highest level of safety, dignity, and comfort during daily transfer routines.
With a reinforced steel chassis and a 175 kg (385 lbs) weight capacity, the Sunlift Major addresses the needs of bariatric patients and those with severe mobility limitations. Its smooth, motorized lift mechanism eliminates the physical strain on caregivers, preventing workplace injuries and ensuring the patient feels secure at every stage of the transfer—whether from bed-to-chair, chair-to-commode, or floor-to-bed.
Why the Sunlift Major is the Professional Choice
1. Exceptional Structural Stability
Unlike standard home-use lifts, the Sunlift Major features an advanced joint system that eliminates "play" or wobbling. Even when lifting a patient at the maximum weight capacity, the hoist remains perfectly rigid, providing a predictable and calm experience for the user.
2. High-Frequency Battery Performance
Equipped with a dual 12V maintenance-free gel battery system, this hoist is built for high-frequency use. A single charge provides up to 60 complete lift cycles, ensuring that the lift is always ready for the next patient. An integrated audible alarm alerts the caregiver when the battery is running low.
3. Precision Safety Spreader Bar
The spreader bar features a cross-over hook design with an anti-slip finish. This prevents sling loops from accidentally sliding off during a transfer. Additionally, all joints are covered with protective shields to eliminate "finger-trap" hazards.
4. Ergonomic Maneuverability
Navigating tight hallways is easy with **high-impact medical-grade casters** (75mm front, 100mm rear) and ergonomically positioned handles. The handles are coated with a high-grip material that is comfortable and easy to sanitize.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can the Sunlift Major lift a patient from the floor?
Yes. One of its critical safety features is the wide lifting range that allows it to reach low enough to facilitate safe floor-to-bed transfers in the event of a patient fall.
How do I maintain the battery health?
For optimal performance, keep the hoist plugged into a power source when not in use. Avoid letting the battery fully discharge to zero.
Are the slings included with the purchase?
Slings are sold separately as they must be specifically sized to the patient (S, M, L, XL) and selected based on the transfer type (Toileting, Full Body, etc.).
Is this lift suitable for home use?
Absolutely. While it is hospital-grade, many UAE families use the Sunlift Major for home care due to its superior stability and ease of maneuverability.
