Charging System
The Maxi Sky 2 comes in two different types of
charging systems.
Whenever the lift is being used, it automatically
disconnects from the charging system and re-
establishes connection after usage to protect it
from excessive current draw.
Regular Charging System
Figure 3
The Maxi Sky 2 series of ceiling lifts are equipped
with a universal charger that can be customized
to fit the AC voltage outlets where it is sold.
Avoid positioning the charger in a way that
access to the plug is limited, making it difficult to
disconnect.
The charger is feeding a charging station located
on the rail to transfer power to the lift for
recharging the batteries.
The charging station features a small Green LED
to indicate when power is present on its contacts.
The RTC (Return to Charge) is disabled by
default. See "Customizing" on page 16 for
instructions on how to enable this feature.
KWIKtrak ECS Rail System
Figure 4
The Maxi Sky 2 series of ceiling lifts are also
compatible for use with the KWIKtrak Enhanced
Charging System (ECS).
This rail system allows the lift to benefit from
continuous charging wherever it is on the rail. It
eliminates the need to send the lift back to the
charging station after the patient transfer.
With the ECS option, the RTC feature is no longer
necessary. However, it may be of interest to park
the lift out of the way. In this case the RTH feature
could be enabled in combination with the use of
PPP (Pre-Programmed-Position) stations added
onto the rail at the desired parking (Home)
locations.
