PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Ergotron CareFit™ Pro Cart, LiFe Powered, UK (C52-1201-3) - Local Warranty
LiFe-Powered Mobile Medical Cart for Point-of-Care Workflows
The Ergotron CareFit Pro Cart is a battery-powered mobile clinical workstation built around Ergotron's patented Constant Force lift — a counterbalanced mechanism that lets a clinician move the worksurface with a touch and hold it anywhere in its travel on an infinite brake. An integrated 320 Wh LiFe battery powers the cart and its connected devices through the shift, without the maintenance burden of older battery chemistries.
Constant Force Lift: Effortless Motion, No Electronics to Service
Constant Force counterbalances the mounted load so the worksurface moves with a light touch and stays exactly where it is left. Ergotron rates the cart for 56 cm (22 in) of sit-to-stand adjustability within a 68.6 cm (27 in) total lift, plus 12.7 cm (5 in) of independent monitor adjustment. Lift strength is user-adjustable to match the configuration, and because the mechanism is mechanical rather than motorised there is one less electronic component in the service chain.
320 Wh Integrated LiFe Battery, Built for Clinical Duty Cycles
Lithium iron phosphate is the chemistry of choice for medical carts because it is stable, long-cycling and forgiving of the partial charges that real ward use imposes. The CareFit Pro carries a 320 Wh integrated LiFe battery as standard, with Ergotron's 245 Wh LiFeKinnex Power System available as an option. Ergotron warrants the integrated battery to hold at least 80% of rated capacity for three years or 2,000 cycles — a specific, measurable commitment rather than a vague promise of long life.
Expanding Worksurface and a Keyboard Tray That Suits Either Hand
The worksurface starts at 35.6 x 40.6 cm and expands to 35.6 x 58.4 cm when a clinician needs room for consumables or a second device, then returns to its compact footprint for transit. The keyboard tray slides out and tilts, and supports right- or left-hand mousing — a small detail that matters when one cart serves a whole rota. Four locking, three-function 12.7 cm dual-wheel casters move it quietly and hold it firmly once parked.
Cleanable to Singapore Infection-Control Protocols
Ergotron approves cleaning with quaternary ammonia compounds, ammonia-enzyme cleaners, bleach and alcohol solutions — the agents already in use across Singapore hospitals and clinics. Wipe the cleaner off immediately with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly; do not immerse the cart. Two side cable access holes keep cords routed and out of the way of the wipe-down.
The Correct Part Number for Singapore Deployment
Ergotron scopes the -3 suffix to the UK, Hong Kong and Singapore, which makes this the right SKU for local healthcare deployments — the same box that ships to UK hospitals. SourceIT supplies it with local Singapore warranty support and a GST invoice, and will confirm the mains cord and plug specification against the current distributor pack list with your quote.

Specifications above are taken from the official Ergotron CareFit Pro datasheet and user guide. Ergotron does not publish a battery runtime figure, a charge time, a VESA pattern, a cart weight or shipping dimensions for this model, so none of those are stated here. The 9.1 kg (20 lbs) figure is a display weight limit, not a total cart load capacity.
Compatibility & Fit
The CareFit Pro carries a display up to 27 inches or 9.1 kg (20 lbs), which covers the clinical all-in-one and monitor-plus-micro-PC builds used across most Singapore healthcare EMR deployments. Note that this is a display limit; Ergotron does not publish a whole-cart load rating for this model, and any figure quoted as one elsewhere is a relabelled screen limit.
Ergotron does not publish a VESA mounting pattern for the CareFit Pro. If you are mounting a specific third-party display rather than a supplied all-in-one, contact SourceIT before ordering and we will confirm fit with the distributor rather than guess.
This is a mobile cart — no desk clamp, grommet or wall bracket applies. It rolls on four locking, three-function 12.7 cm (5 in) dual-wheel casters and occupies a 50.8 x 53.3 cm base. The worksurface starts at 35.6 x 40.6 cm and expands to 35.6 x 58.4 cm when more room is needed for consumables or a second device.
Height adjusts through 56 cm of sit-to-stand travel within a 68.6 cm total lift, plus 12.7 cm of independent monitor adjustment so the screen can be set to eye level separately from the keyboard. The keyboard tray slides out, tilts, and supports right- or left-hand mousing, so the cart suits a mixed shift rota without reconfiguration.
Cleaning: Ergotron approves quaternary ammonia compounds, ammonia-enzyme cleaners, bleach and alcohol solutions — the agents in normal use under Singapore infection-control protocols. Do not immerse the cart; wipe cleaner off immediately with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Package Contents & CareFit Pro Ordering Information
Ergotron does not publish a formal in-the-box list for the CareFit Pro on its datasheet or user guide. The cart ships as a complete assembly with the integrated 320 Wh LiFe battery, slide-out tilting keyboard tray and casters fitted. SourceIT will confirm exact carton contents against the current distributor pack list at the time of order.
The -2 suffix denotes the EU configuration and -3 covers the UK, Hong Kong and Singapore. For Singapore deployments the -3 SKU is the correct part number. Ergotron's documentation lists the suffixes by territory but does not itemise what differs between them beyond the regional designation, so confirm the mains cord and plug specification with SourceIT at the time of order.

Frequently Asked Questions — Ergotron CareFit Pro
How does the Constant Force lift work?
Ergotron's patented Constant Force lift counterbalances the mounted load so the worksurface moves at a touch and holds position anywhere in its travel via an infinite brake mechanism. Lift strength is user-adjustable: increase it if the cart will not stay up under a heavy load, decrease it if it will not stay down under a light one.
Should I choose the Constant Force or the electric lift version?
Both give the same 56 cm of sit-to-stand adjustment, the same 68.6 cm total lift and the same worksurface and footprint. Constant Force is raised by hand and is mechanically simpler, with fewer electronic components to service. The electric lift C52-2201-2 moves on push-and-hold buttons and adds a touchscreen interface showing battery charge and estimated runtime, which tends to suit shared carts and heavier configurations.
What battery does it use, and how long does it run?
The cart has an integrated 320 Wh LiFe (lithium iron phosphate) battery fitted as standard, with an optional 245 Wh LiFeKinnex Power System available. Ergotron does not publish a runtime or charge-time figure for the integrated battery, so we do not quote one — runtime depends entirely on the connected devices. Talk to SourceIT about your device load and we will work it through with you.
Which part number do I order for Singapore?
The -3 suffix, which Ergotron scopes to the UK, Hong Kong and Singapore. The -2 suffix is the EU configuration. Confirm the mains cord and plug specification with SourceIT at the time of order.
What size monitor does it take?
Up to 27 inches, or 9.1 kg (20 lbs), whichever limit you reach first. Ergotron does not publish a VESA pattern for this cart, so if you are mounting a specific third-party display rather than a supplied all-in-one, check with us before ordering.
Can I add drawers later, or do I choose the configuration up front?
Ergotron sells the CareFit Pro in several drawer configurations under distinct part numbers, and the datasheet describes the cart as adaptable by adding drawers and accessories. The base you are viewing here is the no-drawer configuration. Speak to SourceIT about which drawer configuration matches your workflow, and about optional locking drawers where Imprivata identity and access management is in use.
How do we clean it between patients?
Ergotron approves quaternary ammonia compounds, ammonia-enzyme cleaners, bleach and alcohol solutions. Do not immerse the cart; wipe the cleaner off immediately with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Anything we should know about looking after the battery?
Two things worth flagging, because they affect cover. Ergotron voids battery warranty on a fully charged battery left unused for more than three consecutive months, and on a fully discharged battery left unused for more than three consecutive days. Recharge at least every 30 days in storage, and note that the cart does not charge while switched off.
Is there a local Singapore warranty?
Yes. Every Ergotron CareFit Pro sold by SourceIT comes with local Singapore warranty and a GST invoice. Ergotron's datasheet does not print a single headline term for this cart — cover is itemised by component: 5 years against defects on the integrated LiFe battery, 3 years on battery capacity, 2 years on power modules and coiled cords, and 1 year on electronic components. We will confirm the current terms in writing with your quote.
