Hydraulic treatment tables
Hydraulic treatment tables adjust their height via a foot pump, entirely without a power connection. They are the robust, low-maintenance alternative to the electric drive and can be used wherever no socket is nearby or electrics are deliberately avoided.
When is hydraulic the right choice?
A hydraulic table plays to its strengths when the treatment room has no power connection at the table position, the table is moved more often or a robust, simple mechanism without electronics is preferred. The hydraulics work without electronics and therefore without electrical inspection duties, which saves running costs and reduces the risk of faults.
Operation via foot pump
The height is adjusted via a foot pedal: pumping raises the lying surface, a release lever lowers it in a controlled way. Both hands remain free throughout the treatment. The adjustment range covers the usual working heights in physiotherapy and massage.
Robust and economical
Hydraulic models have a mechanically simple design and are therefore particularly durable and less prone to faults. Their purchase price is slightly lower than the comparable electric version, their real strength lies in the robust mechanics without electronics and without a mandatory electrical inspection. As with all Riedimed tables, you configure upholstery colour, frame colour and accessories individually.
Frequently asked questions
Via a hydraulic pump with foot pedal. Repeated pumping raises the table, a lever lowers it in a controlled way. Neither a socket nor a battery is required.
Slightly, yes. The price difference to the electric sister table is typically around 50 euros. The real advantage of the hydraulics is not the price but the simpler, more robust technology without electronics, without a mandatory electrical inspection and with a lower risk of faults. In return, adjustment is slower than with an electric drive.
Anywhere no power connection is available at the table position: flexible treatment rooms, home visit bases, sports halls or rooms where cables would be a trip hazard.
