Mobility has never been so easy

The Empulse F55 is compatible with most fixed-front wheelchairs and offers many benefits in your daily life.

  • The SA version of the Empulse F55 has a longer sub-frame to perfectly adapt to swing-away frames. The swan-necked steering tube improves the user's seating-position.

  • Choose between the 8.5'' version (shown here) or the 14'' version. The fully adjustable position of the Empulse F55 lets you adjust weight-balance and optimize traction. Two independent brake systems ensure increased safety. Smaller pack-size, easy to transport, very manoeuvrable and it turns „on a dime“.

  • The Empulse F55 comes with a 8.1 Ah capacity Li-Ion battery for up to 25km of range. It features an intelligent battery management system for improved charging cycles and lifetime.

  • The Empulse F55 is ultra compact and easy to dock so that you can upgrade your wheelchair with that extra power whenever it is needed. Thanks to the flip up sub frame, the F55’s pack size can be minimised within seconds.

  • Full control with the easy-to-read display. It shows all the information you need: Speed mode, trip distance, total distance, battery condition and power consumption. You can also adjust the position of your handlebar on-the-fly.

Testimonial

Meet Mareen

I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) 13 years ago. My legs no longer "obey" as I would like them to.

With the new Empulse F55, there is a pull device now that is fully motorised, so I can safely leave the car in the garage! Just dock and drive off. I like that very much, because my mobility radius has increased even further now.

Frequently Asked Questions

Thanks to the flip up sub frame, the F55's pack size can be minimised within seconds: flip the frame, insert the steering tube and you will get a handy package that can be stowed away easily. If necessary, the sub frame and also the battery can even be fully detached.

Store the battery in a dry, cool place at around 10 to 15 degrees. Ideally, the battery should be kept at a state of charge of roughly 75%. If it is stored for too long with little charge, the voltage inside drops so drastically that a deep discharge can occur, which permanently damages the battery.

Max. speed forward is 6 kph. Optional available is 10 kph or 15 kph.
Using the F55 with max. speed-settings higher than 6 kph is only permitted on public roads in certain countries and otherwise may only be used on private property.
In the absence of approval (attached to the Order Form and must be signed before order), in accordance with the road traffic laws, the F55 with speed >6 kph may not be driven on public roads, bicycle-lanes and pavements. You need to inform yourself about the country specific legislation regarding usage and your legal obligation to insure the F55 speed settings higher than 6 kph (10/15 kph). When you're travelling with your F55, always check the specific legislation in the respective country.

The F55 easily fits most manual folding and rigid wheelchairs. Please refer to the Compatibility Guide on the Sunrise Medical website. The Compatibility Guide indicates all chairs for which a Combination agreement exist. The list is an indication of wheelchair models the F55 can be mounted on. Please see also the section "Docking Information" in the Compatibility Guide. Here you  find even more information about what requirements have to be met to attach the F55 to your wheelchair. Frame shape, CoG, wheel-size and seat-depth are of influence. Additionally, a straight section of the frame tube of at least 35 mm is also necessary for the attachment of the clamps. Therefore it is essential to try and test it to be 100% sure! Or ask your supplier for advice.

The F55 is a small, versatile, very maneuverable and transportable pulling device that is intended for in- and outdoor usage. The 14" shows better offroad-capatibility, whilst the 8.5" version convinces with ist very small turning circle in- and outdoor.
