Quick Overview

Electro Kinetic Technologies builds a family of motorized medical carts for hospitals and clinics, and this is where you start if you know the job but not the model. The range covers the Pony Express 2085 medication cart, the Pony Express 1085 endoscopy cart, battery powered crash carts with secure storage for tools, instruments and medication, and the Model 1080 hospital pharmacy cart that supplies medication rooms across the building.

What they share is the reason they exist. EK Tech cites research from the Liberty Mutual Research Institute for Safety showing that push and pull forces as low as 35 pounds contribute to musculoskeletal injuries at work, which is why many hospitals now limit how hard staff may push equipment. Carpet, thresholds and inclines make that limit easy to break with a loaded cart. Putting a powered drive under the cart takes the force off the caregiver rather than asking them to work around it.

The 1085 and 2085 column carts share one platform. Each is 54 in long, 27 in wide and 51 in high, runs 0 to 3 mph on variable speed, is rated to a 6 degree maximum incline and covers up to 10 miles of operation on a single charge. Both carry deep cycle AGM batteries with over 2x the life of standard AGM, a UL, cUL and CE listed on board smart charger on 120 or 240 VAC through a 10 ft hospital grade retractable cord, regenerative dynamic braking, an automatic holding brake that holds on an incline, and a horn, key switch, emergency stop and high and low speed switch at the handle. Two columns take drawers 3 in, 6 in or 9 in high, shelves and a keyboard shelf, with locking from individual drawer locks up to an electronic keypad and proximity card reader. The Model 1080 pharmacy cart is a different animal, six pull out drawers 34 in wide by 24 in deep in a 44 by 31 by 57 in body, enough for over 20 nurse stations, and EK Tech adapts it to accept a Pony Express electric tugger or mounts it on a motorized platform.

All of it is engineered to order in Germantown Wisconsin, so we quote rather than list a price. Go straight to a model if you already know it, the medication cart, the endoscopy cart, the crash cart or the pharmacy cart. EK Tech also builds healthcare carts outside this family, including the Pony Express 1033 medical records cart, the medical gas cylinder cart, the 2010 cylinder delivery cart and the motorized linen carts.

Which EK Tech medical cart do I need?

Take it from the job. A med pass on a unit is the Pony Express 2085 medication cart. A scope tower moving between procedure rooms is the Pony Express 1085 endoscopy cart. Supplies and medication that have to be at a code is a crash cart. Distribution from central pharmacy to medication rooms is the Model 1080 pharmacy cart. Call us and we will place your job against the range in a couple of minutes.

How fast are these carts and how far do they go?

The 1085 and 2085 column carts run from 0 to 3 mph on variable speed and cover up to 10 miles of operation on a single charge, with a maximum incline rating of 6 degrees. EK Tech does not publish speed or range figures for the crash cart line because each one is engineered to order, so we confirm those with the factory on your quote.

What locking is available?

On the column carts, individual drawer locks, column locks, an electronic keypad with a PIN code, or an electronic keypad with a proximity card reader. On the Model 1080 pharmacy cart, security locking doors as standard with an optional electronic locking system for HIPAA and JCAHO requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the medication cart and the pharmacy cart?

The 2085 medication cart is the unit level cart a nurse takes on the med pass, and it drives itself. The Model 1080 pharmacy cart is the distribution cart that carries patient specific medication from central pharmacy out to medication rooms, holds enough for over 20 nurse stations, and becomes motorized by pairing with a Pony Express tugger or motorized platform.

Why buy motorized medical carts at all?

EK Tech cites Liberty Mutual research showing push and pull forces as low as 35 pounds contribute to musculoskeletal injuries, and many hospitals have set limits on the force staff may apply. A loaded cart on carpet or a ramp beats that limit. A powered drive keeps the cart useful without putting the strain on the person moving it.

How customizable are these carts?

The 1085 and 2085 take two configurable columns with drawers 3 in, 6 in or 9 in high, shelves and a keyboard shelf, plus accessories like an articulating monitor mount, hospital grade power strip, isolation transformer, sharps and waste containers, chart holder and large basket, in any of 16 paint colors. Crash carts are engineered to order, with stainless steel or aluminum frames, pendant, dual or wireless controls and lithium iron phosphate batteries among the published options.

Do you sell other EK Tech healthcare equipment?

Yes. The Pony Express 1033 medical records cart, medical gas cylinder carts, the 2010 cylinder delivery cart, the 1050-EL lift cart, motorized linen and laundry carts, motorized platform carts and the electric power scooter for visitors are all EK Tech products we carry. Ask us and we will point you at the right one.

How do I get a price?

Every cart in this range is built to order, so the price follows the configuration. Call us on 1-888-233-5563 or send your requirement through the contact form. Tell us what the cart carries, where it travels and how it has to lock, and we will come back with a written quote, usually the same business day.

How to Purchase & What's Included

How do I get a price for the EK Tech motorized medical cart?

We sell the EK Tech motorized medical cart on a quote basis so we can confirm the right configuration and the best available price for your facility. Call us toll free at 1-888-233-5563 or use our contact form and we will have a quote back to you the same business day in most cases.

Does Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance help pay for the EK Tech motorized medical cart?

Material handling equipment like the EK Tech motorized medical cart does not meet the medical device rules that Medicare and Medicaid use, so it does not qualify for coverage. We do not work with Medicare and we do not bill private insurance directly.

Notice to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Medicare pays for equipment only when the supplier has a Medicare supplier number. Heavy Duty Mobility does not have one, so Medicare will not pay for anything we sell you. You are personally and fully responsible for payment.

What comes included with the EK Tech motorized medical cart?

  • The complete cart built to the configuration we agree with you and the factory, assembled and tested before it ships
  • On board UL, cUL and CE listed smart charging system on the motorized column carts
  • Deep cycle AGM battery pack with a charge indicator on the motorized column carts
  • Operator documentation for daily use and charging

Shipping, Warranty & Returns

Shipping

How long until my EK Tech motorized medical cart arrives?

Each unit ships by freight carrier on a skid from the EK Tech factory in Wisconsin. Once your order is confirmed we give you the current factory lead time with your quote, and transit typically adds three to seven business days depending on your distance. We coordinate dock delivery or liftgate service with you when the build is scheduled.

Will I get tracking?

Yes. As soon as your unit ships we email you a tracking link so you can follow it all the way to your dock.

Warranty

How long is the warranty on the EK Tech motorized medical cart? What is included and excluded?

The EK Tech motorized medical cart carries the Electro Kinetic Technologies limited warranty on the frame and drive system, with the exact term confirmed on your quote. It does not cover service or transportation costs, normal wear items, damage from misuse, unauthorized work or modifications, or outdoor storage. Shipping damage and incidental damages are also not covered. The warranty is valid for the original buyer with a sales receipt, and any warranty changes need approval from Electro Kinetic Technologies, LLC.

Can I return or exchange the EK Tech motorized medical cart?

Yes, returns are possible. Please see our returns policy.
