High-Performance Hydraulic System
Each part of the hydraulic pump has been made with precision and carefully assembled for optimal patient safety. The pump is enclosed and sealed with neoprene rings to prevent hydraulic oil from leaking; this helps ensure the pump remains working. The hand-operated pump gradually lifts and lowers without jolting, providing safety and security as well as extra comfort during transfers.
Low-Clearance, Adjustable Base
The Onyx patient lift has a base height clearance of 5.25 inches for sliding under hospital beds, chairs, and more. The hand-operated base opens and closes to adjust to objects such as wheelchairs, chairs, and commodes, making patient transfer possible from any stationary position. The dual rear-locking casters prevent the transfer aid from moving while lifting or lowering patients from any area, reducing the risks of falling and slipping.

The Onyx is compatible with these patient slings:
- Proactive Medical Full Body Mesh and Solid Polyester Patient Lift Slings, which are available in multiple sizes with and without commode openings.
- Proactive Medical Patient Leg Slings, which are available in either mesh or padded polyester.
