Proactive Medical Protekt Onyx Hydraulic Patient Lift — 32475
/
The Proactive Medical Protekt Onyx Hydraulic Patient Lift (model 32475) is Proactive's hydraulic floor lift for home care and facility use — 450 lb capacity, 17"–61" lifting range, and a design built around practical everyday use. The arched leg design provides a stronger, more stable stance than straight-leg alternatives at the same 42.25" open width. Chain connections replace clip-based sling attachments — no loose hardware to track between transfers. The 6-point spreader bar accepts 4- and 6-point slings. Dual rear locking casters prevent the lift from moving unexpectedly during sling attachment and transfer. Tool-free assembly. Free sling included with purchase. 3-year frame warranty / 1-year hydraulic pump warranty.

Lifting Range — 17" to 61"
Chain Connections — Why It Matters
The Protekt Onyx uses chain connections between the spreader bar and the sling — not plastic clip hooks. Clip-based sling attachments are the most common source of small-part loss in patient lift use: clips detach between transfers, fall behind furniture, and get misplaced during storage. When a clip is missing at transfer time, the lift cannot be used safely until a replacement is found.
Chain connections eliminate this problem entirely. The chains are permanently attached to the spreader bar — there is nothing to lose. Every transfer, the chains are where they should be. A small design choice with a meaningful practical impact for caregivers doing daily transfers.
The Arched Leg Design
The Protekt Onyx's legs follow an arched profile rather than straight horizontal tubes. The arched design serves two purposes: structural strength and floor profile. The arch distributes the lateral load of the open base more efficiently than a straight tube — the same steel wall thickness produces a stronger, more rigid open-base stance. The arch also keeps the outermost points of the legs slightly above the floor, reducing the risk of catching on carpet edges and low furniture bases when navigating the lift to the transfer position.
