Height-adjustable tables (HI)
A height-adjustable Ahrend 500 table (fig. 4) can be adjus

ted to suit your personal requirements. The height can be
adjusted from 62 to 85 cm.
Mechanical variable height tables (HV)
A variable height Ahrend Portal table (figs. 5 and 6) lets
you adjust the height of the work surface mechanically to
suit your own height and posture at any time. This means
that different people can use the same work table at dif

ferent times in maximum comfort. By turning the handle
the height can be adjusted from 62 to 85 cm.
Electronic variable height tables (HVE)
A variable height Ahrend 500 table (figs. 6 and 7) lets you
adjust the height of the work surface electronically to suit
your own height and posture at any time.
This means that different people can use the same work
table at different times in maximum comfort.
The switch on the table edge operates the mechanism
that adjusts the table height from 62 to 85 cm. Several

The height of your chair
Adjust the height of your chair seat to your dimension A
(see ‘Working out the correct table height’). Measure from
a point in the middle of the front edge of the seat.
Footrest
In practice a low table height is often disliked, perhaps
because a person does not want to be sitting lower than
his or her colleagues.
In this case an ergonomically correct sitting posture can
still be achieved with the aid of a footrest. Adjust the
table and chair by raising them a distance equal to the
average height of the footrest.
