ISO IEC 9899:2018 pdf download.Wheelchairs Part 6 : Determination of maximum speed of electrically powered wheelchairs.
Maximum speed can be an important factor in the selection of the most appropriate wheelchair for individual people.
Maximum speed can have an influence on whether an electrically powered mobility device may be used on or off footpaths, or both, depending upon local legislation. Some people’s main concern may be to travel as fast as possible, whereas other people may be apprehensive of higher speeds. In addition, other tests in the Iso 7176 series may require the determination of maximum speed in order to carry out their procedures.
These tests specify a consistent method of determining maximum values of speed to provide comparable results.
