Empulse M90 Power Assist Wheels
The Empulse M90 is a sleek and lightweight power-assist system for manual wheelchairs. It helps reduce the effort needed to propel, making everyday journeys, hills, longer distances and busy environments easier to manage.
Designed by Sunrise Medical, the Empulse M90 replaces standard rear wheels with powered 24" wheels. The batteries are built into the wheel hubs, so there are no external wires or bulky add-ons. This helps keep the wheelchair compact, balanced and easy to manoeuvre.
Lightweight power for manual wheelchair users
The Empulse M90 is designed to support independence without changing the feel of a manual wheelchair. Each wheel weighs approximately 5.9 kg, including the battery, while the full system weighs around 11.9 kg.
When the wheelchair's weight is between the wheels, it remains stable and easy to drive. Use with preferred tyres and handrims to help maintain familiar comfort, grip and control.
Simple control options
The Empulse M90 offers intuitive control for different environments. Users can drive with the removable all-way toggle or use speed control with handrim steering. This gives flexibility for indoor use, outdoor journeys and longer periods of powered assistance.
The system includes indoor and outdoor drive profiles, cruise control, terrain adjustment and hill control. These features help improve confidence, especially when travelling over slopes, pavements or mixed surfaces.
Easy to remove and transport
The Empulse M90 uses a quick-release wheel design, making it easy to remove for transport or storage. The batteries are removable and travel-ready, which is useful for users who need to lift their wheelchairs into a car or travel more often.
The compact design also helps preserve the wheelchair's original width, making it practical for homes, shops, appointments, and public spaces.
