homecare setting, at nursing homes and other
assisted living centers. Patient transferring is
performed under the supervision of an appropriately

NOTE:
Operational Life
The equipment is designed and tested for a useful life
of seven (7) years or 10,000 transfers—whichever
comes first—subject to preventative maintenance as
specified in the “Care and Maintenance” section in
this manual. Time equivalence between the number
of transfers versus the number of years is made clear
in the table in Fig. 1
.
The red indicator light on the ceiling lift will blink
when it is about halfway to its useful life, and again
to indicate the end of the useful life period.
The operating life of this equipment corresponds
directly to the safe operating time period before a
complete overhaul is required. Aging of the cassette,
frequency of use (transfers per day), the weight of the
patient and maintenance frequency are factors that
have an impact on the Voyager Duo’s life span. A
transfer is defined as the displacement of a patient
from one point to another. A transfer cycle includes a
lifting and a descending action.
The expected operational life for fabric slings and
fabric stretchers is approximately 2 years from date
of purchase. This life expectancy only applies if the
slings and stretchers have been cleaned, maintained
and inspected in accordance with the
BHM Medical
Sling Application Guide , the Instructions for Use and
the “Preventive Maintenance Schedule”.
The expected life for other consumable products,
such as batteries, fuses, lamps, straps and cords is
dependent upon the care and usage of the equipment
