Netti AdaptPro is a tilt and recline wheelchair with

seating system for adolescent and grown up users

meant for mainly indoor and some outdoor use. It is

tested to DIN EN 12183:2014. The tests were carried

out by TÜV SÜD Product Service GmbH in Germany.

In Alu Rehab we believe that wheelchairs should

be chosen based on a thorough assessment

focusing on the needs of the user and demands

from environment. It is vital to be aware of the

possibilities and limits the wheelchair oers.

Netti AdaptPro is a wheelchair designed for users

with great need of comfort and adjustments. It has

an adjustable seat and back angle, thus facilitating

for the user change of position, mobilisation or

posture correction (stabilization).

Netti AdaptPro has been crash tested at TASS

International test centre in Helmond Netherlands,

according to ISO 7176-19:2008.

Max. user weight is 135kg, also when used

as a seat in a car.

When mounting accessories such as power

kit etc., the weight of the accessories must

be subtracted from the max. user weight.

Specications varies between countries.

the Global Medical Device Nomenclature

GMDN 41620 Wheelchair attendant /

comfort wheelchair for wheeled transport for

partially or fully immobile adolescent and grown up

persons with physical and/or mental disabilities.

Netti AdaptPro has a modular system that can be

need. It provides a means by which a disabled

person who requires the possibility to vary the

sitting position from activity to rest will prot from

using tilt and recline functions. It is designed for

users with the need for comfort and relief. The

combination between the seating system and the

ergonomic solution in the frame construction oers

many possibilities for adaptation and adjustments.

toughness of use as well as the level
