The Garaventa Evacu-Trac is a light-weight, compact and easy-to-use evacuation chair. The open sides of the Evacu-Trac are designed for people with limited mobility to transfer from their wheelchair to this evacuation chair without assistance. Once positioned in the Evacu-Trac, the velcro straps are wrapped securely around the passenger's torso and lower legs. The passenger is then wheeled to the stairway for descent.
The Evacu-Trac is completely stable and self-supporting on flat surfaces and during descent. Its patented speed governor and braking system allows a small attendant to easily evacuate a larger person securely and maintain full control of the speed of descent. The durable rubber tracks firmly grip the stairs and the safety brake can stop the unit on the stairs if necessary. The Evacu-Trac is equipped with a sling seat, three safety straps and a deep foot pocket for passenger safety and comfort.
The Evacu-Trac should be kept in any multi-storey building where persons with disabilities live, work, or visit. This easy to use emergency evacuation chair is equipped with many safety features and most importantly, provides people with limited mobility an equal opportunity for escape in an emergency.
