The Invacare Rea Dahlia has it all, a slim, modern design, tilt options and easy adjustability. For those seeking mobility with comfort, and pressure relief, this versatile chair is perfect for passive and active clients.
The Dahlia features two tilt angles of either 30° or 45 °, which improves the positioning capabilities as the tilt and recline options reduce pressure. Component Cross- Compatibility (CCC) across product families include the Flex3 seating.
Weight shifting with ease
The 45° option provides greater tilt possibilities, delivering excellent pressure relieving properties, which support the client’s most vulnerable areas. The unique construction of the tilt mechanism makes it light to adjust, requiring little muscle force.
An ideal chair for foot propelling
The 30° tilt option is suitable for more able clients who can readily propel themselves. The seat height can be as low as 32.5 cm, allowing the possibility to foot propel. Using the self tilt version, clients can actively change posture at will.
Benefits for both Dahlia 30° and 45°:
- Easy to manoeuvre – rear wheels close to body for light pushing
- Small overall width – narrow footprint
- Easy to turn – adjustable rear wheels balance the centre of gravity
- Very safe – DSS system maintains chair stability in every tilt position
- Easy to operate – light movement with smooth tilt
- Component Cross-Compatibility from the Invacare® family
Dahlia 30° for foot propelling with a seat height of 32,5 cm.
Dahlia 30° with self tilt for those who can actively change posture.
Dahlia 45° for optimum pressure relief of an individual’s posterior.
The DSS with the high pivot point for the backrest which provides minimum shearing when reclining.
The first 10° of Dahlia 30° has a small incline for keeping the feet as close to the ground as possible.
For a wider backrest on a smaller seat frame, backrest joint width extensions are an option, to out rig the pivot points of the backrest out by 50mm.
Adjustable seating independent of depth and width.
Pre-molded seats, or individually tailored seating is possible.
Extend the seat plate for individual supports of seat cushions and/or legs.
The Matrx range can be selected as an option. It provides a stable and firm support to the body. The Matrx® Elite Deep has a built-in trunk support and the Matrx® Elite has a mild contour, which allows for more movement.
Dahlia has an optional tension adjustable backrest.
The overall width is as small as an active chair. Note the proximity of the wheels. This makes it very easy to move through narrow spaces, such as doorways.
Dahlia can be equipped with a kerb lever.
On Dahlia 45° an additional gas piston helps the attendant to raise the chair from large tilt angles. This makes it easier for the attendant and helps reduce strain in the back.
The centre of gravity can be adjusted for lighter wheeling.
Anti-tippers can be pushed up by the attendant’s feet. These rest at a 5° outward position when folded down to avoid conflicts when pushing.
