Protekt 600 Electric Full-Body Lift, 600 lb
Protekt 600 Electric Full-Body Lift — 600 lb, Wide Base, Floor-Capable
Bariatric Patient Transfer Architecture with 600 lb Capacity, 45″ Extra-Wide Base Expansion, 6-Point Clip-Free 360° Spreader Cradle, Low 22.8″ Floor Recovery Height, and Hands-Free Base Control
The Protekt 600 Electric Full-Body Lift (Model 33600) by Proactive Medical serves as the highest-capacity patient handling solution in the Protekt floor lift series. Engineered specifically for bariatric care and high-dependency transfers, this fully battery-powered system delivers smooth, motorized elevation up to a 600 lb safe working load. Powered boom operation controlled via an ergonomic hand pendant eliminates manual hand-pumping, protecting care staff against lower back strain and injury during routine patient transfers.
Built on a heavy-duty chassis, the Protekt 600 features an extra-wide base that expands up to 45 inches via a hands-free foot pedal, providing exceptional lateral stability during high-weight elevation. Its low-profile base frame glides beneath standard homecare bed frames, while a low 22.8-inch minimum boom height enables safe floor-level recovery transfers. Outfitted with a 360-degree rotating 6-point clip-free spreader bar compatible with 2-, 4-, or 6-point slings, manual emergency lowering features, and a 24V rechargeable battery system, the Protekt 600 offers reliable, heavy-duty performance across home and clinical settings.
Key Features & Benefits
- Highest-Capacity Protekt Engineering: Built to safely manage transfers up to a 600 lb safe working load, providing high structural margin for bariatric care.
- Extra-Wide 45″ Base Expansion: Foot-pedal operated base opens up to 45 inches wide, creating a broad, stable footprint around wide chairs, wheelchairs, and commodes.
- Full-Electric Battery Actuation: Rechargeable 24V battery power delivers smooth motorized lifting (20+ lifts per charge) without manual pumping effort.
- 6-Point Clip-Free 360° Spreader Bar: Swivels 360 degrees to prevent strap twisting and accepts standard 2-point, 4-point, or 6-point loop-style slings.
- Floor-Capable Low Boom Clearance: Low 22.8-inch minimum lifting height allows caregivers to perform emergency floor recoveries safely.
- Hands-Free Foot Pedal Adjustment: Convenient foot lever opens and locks the base legs smoothly, allowing caregivers to keep both hands focused on patient stability.

Patient Handling Specialist Insight: The Protekt 600 builds upon the design of the Protekt 500, with the primary distinction being its 600 lb weight capacity and wider 45-inch base expansion. This extra-wide base profile provides essential lateral anti-tip stability during bariatric transfers. If patient weight approaches or exceeds 450 lbs, stepping up to the 600 ensures structural margin and easier positioning around wide bariatric wheelchairs.

The Protekt 600 increases safe working load to 600 lbs and features a wider 45-inch base opening compared to the 500 model. Choose the Protekt 500 for tighter indoor doorways if weights are under 500 lbs, or the Protekt 600 for bariatric capacity and maximum base stability.
Can the Protekt 600 lift a patient up from the floor?
