• Stability during handling: The three-wheel configuration (two fixed and one swivel) ensures constant balance during transfers on flat surfaces, reducing the risk of tipping.
• Cylinder safety: The tightening straps keep the cylinder fixed during transport, avoiding accidental movements and falls.
• Operational ergonomics: The non-toxic rubber handle allows for a stable and secure grip, complying with the hygiene standards of healthcare environments.
• Lightness and maneuverability: With a weight of only 4 kg, the trolley is easily transportable even by a single operator without fatigue.
• Regulatory compliance: CE certification guarantees compliance with European safety requirements for use in medical contexts.
• Durability in humid environments: The acrylic powder coating resists frequent cleaning and sanitization operations typical of hospital environments.

The trolley finds its main application in healthcare environments, where regular transport of medical gas cylinders (oxygen, nitrous oxide, compressed air) between hospital wards, operating rooms, intensive care areas, and outpatient centers is required.

It is also suitable for nursing care facilities, nursing homes, dental and veterinary clinics where standard 150 mm diameter cylinders are used. The configuration with rubber-coated wheels and swivel joint makes it ideal for movement in confined spaces and on delicate floors (parquet, hospital linoleum).

This solution is the right choice when operations require frequent and safe transport of cylinders in certified environments, where stability and regulatory compliance are essential prerequisites. It is particularly suitable for facilities operating under ISO 13849 guidelines or requiring CE compliance documentation.

Choosing it means investing in a trolley designed to minimize the risk of accidents during handling, while ensuring ease of use and maintainability in contexts with a high rate of sanitization. The combination of low weight and stability makes it suitable for long and repeated paths within complex hospital structures.

What are the differences compared to trolleys with a four-wheel configuration?

Three-wheel trolleys (two fixed and one swivel) offer superior maneuverability in tight spaces, typical of hospital environments. The four-wheel configuration provides greater stability in a straight line on irregular surfaces, but is less versatile in narrow corridors and angled curves. The choice depends on the physical layout of the healthcare facility.

Is the trolley compliant with current European regulations?

Yes, the trolley is CE marked in accordance with European directives on the safety of machinery and auxiliary medical devices. Compliance documentation is available and includes adherence to dimensional parameters, mechanical resistance, and use in biohazard environments.

Can it be used on sensitive hospital floors?

The rubber-coated wheels ensure silent and non-damaging rolling on linoleum, epoxy resin, and medical parquet floors. They do not leave marks and do not damage delicate coverings.

Is the non-toxic rubber handle easily sanitizable?

Yes, the non-toxic rubber used is smooth, non-porous, and compatible with standard hospital detergents and alcoholic solutions used for regular sanitization.

What is the maximum compatible cylinder diameter?

The trolley is designed exclusively for 150 mm diameter cylinders. It is not suitable for cylinders of a different format because the tightening straps and internal space are calibrated to this specific dimension.
