Overview

Axcel P335 power tilt range from upright to 50 degrees

Group 3 front wheel drive rehab power chair with 0 to 50 degree power tilt, 85 to 160 degree power recline, hydraulic suspension and an optional 12 inch seat elevator, built on the adjustable Frequency seating system.

The Axcel is the flagship front wheel drive chair from Avid, the complex rehab division of Merits Health Products. It is coded K0856 and K0861 as a Group 3 power base, which puts it in the class of chairs built for full time users who need real positioning technology rather than a basic captain seat. Standard power tilt runs 0 to 50 degrees and power recline runs 85 to 160 degrees with 6 inches of shear reduction, so pressure relief and posture changes happen at the joystick without a transfer.

What separates the Axcel from most Group 3 bases at this level is the ride. Front wheel drive puts the 14 by 3 inch drive tires first over thresholds, ramps and grass, and the frame carries full hydraulic shock absorbers at both ends with large 9 inch casters trailing behind. Merits pairs that with front and rear LED lighting as standard equipment, a detail many rehab bases still treat as an upgrade.

Seating is handled by the Frequency system, which adjusts from 14 to 22 inches in both width and depth on the same hardware. A clinician can size the chair to the user today and open it up later as needs change, and the rails accept Merits Precision Comfort cushions as well as third party backs, laterals and headrests. R-Net 120A electronics run the chair, the same platform used across the CRT industry for expandable and alternative drive controls.

Two MK M34 60Ah gel batteries deliver up to 19 miles of range at speeds up to 6.3 mph, and a tool free rear door exposes both batteries for service without lifting the seat or transferring the user. The shroud comes in Noir Black, Dove Gray, Ruby Red, Sapphire Blue or Camo Green.

Is the Avid Axcel P335 a Group 3 power wheelchair?

Yes. The Axcel P335 carries HCPCS codes K0856 and K0861, which place it in the Group 3 single power and multi power option classes used for complex rehab chairs. That class is built for full time users who need positioning features such as power tilt and recline rather than a basic captain seat.

How much tilt and recline does the Axcel have?

Power tilt is standard and runs from 0 to 50 degrees. Power recline runs from 85 to 160 degrees with 6 in of shear reduction, so the backrest slides with your body as it opens. Both work from the joystick, so pressure relief and posture changes happen without a transfer.

Can the Axcel seat rise for transfers and reach?

Yes, with the optional power seat elevator, which lifts the whole seat 12 in. Users add it for counter height reach, eye level conversation and easier stand pivot transfers. Without it, the seat to floor height is 17.5 to 19.5 in.

What seat sizes does the Avid Axcel P335 come in?

The Frequency seating system adjusts from 14 to 22 in in both width and depth on the same hardware, with backrest heights from 22 to 24.8 in. A clinician can size the chair to the user now and open it up later as needs change. The rails also accept third party backs, laterals and headrests.

How much weight can the Axcel hold and how big is it?

The Axcel is rated for users up to 300 lb. The chair measures 40 in long, 24.5 in wide and 41.5 in tall, turns in a 28 in radius and weighs 372 lb. Measure your narrowest door and hallway turn against those numbers before you choose a seat setup.

How far and how fast does the Axcel go?

Two MK M34 60Ah gel batteries give up to 19 miles per charge, with a top speed of 6.3 mph through R-Net 120A electronics. Range drops with hills, rough ground and heavy use of the power seat functions. A tool free rear door gives access to both batteries without lifting the seat.

Does the Avid Axcel handle outdoor ground well?

Front wheel drive puts the 14 by 3 in drive tires first over thresholds, ramps and grass. Full front and rear hydraulic shock absorbers and 9 in casters smooth out sidewalk joints. The rated maximum incline is 7.5 degrees, and front and rear LED lights are standard.

Can the Axcel use alternative drive controls instead of a joystick?

Yes. The R-Net electronics platform is expandable, so head arrays, sip and puff and other specialty inputs can be specified for users who cannot use a standard joystick. R-Net is the same platform used across the complex rehab industry.

Does Medicare or insurance pay for the Axcel P335?

Not through us. Heavy Duty Mobility does not hold a Medicare supplier number, so Medicare will not pay for a chair bought here, and we do not bill private insurance directly. Some private plans reimburse buyers, so ask your insurer first. We can provide an invoice and proof of purchase for your claim.
