Powered Mobility Offers Versatility (M¿V)TM Chair. The Powered MOV Chair models EMS, EMS24, HHC, and INO Powered MOV Chair, enable two operators to transport a seated patient weighing up to 500 Ibs up or down stairs. Key features include infinite positioning system, thermal protection system, and locking casters. In addition to the aforementioned features, the battery powered track reduces operator effort and risk of back injury while transporting a patient up or down a set of stairs
