Description
Heavy-Duty. Bariatric. Secure. Built for Safer 600 lb Patient Transfers.
The Invacare Reliant 600 Heavy-Duty Hoyer Lift Machine is a powerful bariatric patient lift designed to safely support users weighing up to 600 lbs. Built for hospitals, long-term care facilities, rehab centers, assisted living environments, and homecare situations requiring higher-capacity transfer support, this hoyer lift machine provides a strong, secure, and dependable alternative to unsafe manual lifting.
If you are searching for a heavy duty hoyer lift that can handle bariatric transfers with stability, comfort, and caregiver safety in mind, the Invacare Reliant 600 is built for serious patient handling needs. Its high lift range supports transfers to higher surfaces, while its low-friction casters help improve rollability and caregiver control during daily use.
Why This Hoyer Lift Machine Stands Out
This lift is designed for caregivers and facilities that need higher weight capacity, stronger patient support, and dependable powered lifting.
✔️ 600 lb bariatric lifting capacity
✔️ Heavy-duty powered patient transfer support
✔️ High lift range for taller surfaces
✔️ Emergency lowering for power loss
✔️ Extra-wide 6-point swivel bar
Who This Bariatric Patient Lift Is Best For
The Invacare Reliant 600 is best for patients who require a stronger, higher-capacity lift and cannot safely stand, pivot, or transfer without full caregiver support.
✔️ Bariatric patients up to 600 lbs
✔️ Long-term care resident transfers
✔️ Hospitals and rehab facilities
✔️ Caregivers avoiding manual lifting
✔️ High-risk mobility support needs
This lift is ideal for transfers between beds, wheelchairs, commodes, chairs, and high surfaces when used with a properly selected compatible sling.
Two Versions Available – Low Base or Power Opening Low Base
The Invacare Reliant 600 is available in two powered configurations:
- RPL600-1: Powered lift with low base
- RPL600-2: Powered lift with power opening low base
Both versions provide electric lifting and a 600 lb safe working load. The main difference is the base opening function.
✔️ RPL600-1 Low Base: Strong powered lift with standard base operation for dependable bariatric transfer support.
✔️ RPL600-2 Power Opening Low Base: Adds powered base widening and narrowing for easier positioning around beds, chairs, wheelchairs, and commodes.
The power opening base option can be especially helpful for caregivers performing frequent transfers or working with heavier patients where easier base positioning is important.
Designed for Bariatric Safety & Stability
The Reliant 600 is built specifically to meet the needs of larger patients and higher-demand care environments.
✔️ Built for bariatric resident handling
✔️ Secure alternative to manual lifting
✔️ Wide base supports stability
✔️ Extra-wide swivel bar improves support
For facilities managing bariatric care, this lift helps reduce the physical demands placed on caregivers while improving resident safety and dignity during transfers.
Wide Lift Range for Floor & High-Surface Transfers
This floor lift for patients offers a high lift range that supports transfers from lower positions and up to higher surfaces.
✔️ Supports floor-level transfer needs
✔️ Transfers to higher surfaces
✔️ Useful for beds and chairs
✔️ Helps with resident repositioning
Its lift range is especially valuable in long-term care, rehab, and hospital settings where patients may need to transfer between different surface heights throughout the day.
Extra-Wide 360° Swivel Bar & Sling Support
The Reliant 600 includes an extra-wide padded swivel bar with 360-degree rotation and a six-point hook-up system.
✔️ Extra-wide bar improves positioning
✔️ 360° rotation supports flexibility
✔️ Six-point hookup improves sling support
✔️ Designed for bariatric sling use
This lift may be used with compatible Invacare sling options, including Heavy-Duty, Full Body/Comfort, Divided Leg/Universal, Easy Fit, Toileting, and Dress High Toileting sling styles. Mesh sling options such as model #R140 and mesh commode opening sling model #R141 may also be relevant depending on the patient’s needs.
Powered Electronics with Backup Safety Systems
The Invacare Reliant 600 is designed with caregiver safety and emergency response in mind.
✔️ Manual lowering during power loss
✔️ Emergency controls stop and lower
✔️ Anti-entrapment stops resistance movement
✔️ Quick-release battery reduces downtime
The electronics include a removable battery box located on the mast, an emergency off button, battery recharge alerts, and a charging station where a second battery can be kept ready for use. This helps keep the lift available for demanding care routines.
Designed for Facilities, LTC & Daily Bariatric Care
The Reliant 600 is an essential device for safer resident handling in hospitals and LTC environments.
✔️ Built for long-term care use
✔️ Helps reduce caregiver injury risk
✔️ Supports frequent daily transfers
✔️ Manufactured in ISO13485 facility
For care teams managing heavier patients, this heavy duty hoyer lift provides the capacity, safety features, and durability needed for demanding transfer routines.
Optional Digital Scale & Accessories
The Invacare Reliant Digital Scale can retrofit on Reliant 450 and Reliant 600 lifts for convenient patient weight tracking during transfers.
✔️ Four-button easy display
✔️ Automatic shut-off preserves battery
✔️ Useful for bariatric monitoring
✔️ Two-year limited warranty
Additional compatible sling and accessory options may include bariatric sling styles, full body slings, toileting slings, mesh slings, and replacement batteries depending on the care environment and transfer needs.
