Indications for Use

Batec is not intended for specific clinical use, but as a support to the mobility of active manual wheelchairs' users. It is designed to add auxiliary power to the manual wheelchair, increasing the mobility for the wheelchair's user. Therefore, bearing in mind the operating precautions described in this document, there is no need for professional, technical or aptitude requirements to operate or use a Batec device. Batec devices are intended as add-on devices for wheelchairs, thus the intended user is a person with motor disability who needs of the wheelchair support for movement.

Device Story

Handbike Batec Electric is a handcycle attachment for manual wheelchairs; converts manual chair into 3-wheeled electric tricycle. Input: user pedaling or throttle activation.

Handbike Batec Electric aims to convert a manual wheelchair into an electrically propelled tricycle that allows the disabled collective to make larger and more complex movements and routes that can be made only with the manual wheelchair, increasing their independence and autonomy in daily life by performing recreational and sporting activities. The operation of the Handbike Batec Electric is the same in all models, changing only the wheel size, maximum speed, and equipment. First the handbike must be coupled to the wheelchair. Once the two parts are attached, we will have a set consisting of three wheelchair seat, the transmission and traction on the front wheel. To operate the handbike, the transmission of the handbike must be operated by pedaling with the controls or by pressing the accelerator. In this way we will drive the front wheel with the manufactured product. The device has two independent mechanical brakes (right and a parking brake. In addition. there is an automatic speed-limiting motor brake managed by software, which prevents exceeding 120% of the speed limit setting in each mode. ## SUMMARY OF COMPARISON WITH PREDICATE DEVICE: In the establishment of substantial equivalence, Handibike Batec Electric are compared with the following previously cleared devices: - K222502 Klick (variants: Power, Race, Monster) {5}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/5/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Batec Mobility.

Handbike Batec Electric 510(k) Premarket Notification Submission ## 510(k) Summary #### SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF NON-CLINICAL DATA: The subject device has been tested to determine conformance specifications and requirements taking account of its intended use as a mobility device. Non-clinical testing performed as specified in the following standards and in foreseeable operating conditions showed correct performance of the device as per its intended use: • ISO 7176-1:2014, ISO 7176-2:2017, ISO 7176-3:2012, ISO 7176-4:2008, ISO 7176-5:2008, ISO 7176-6:2018, ISO 7176-8:2014, ISO 7176-9:2009, ISO 7176-10:2014, ISO 7176-11:2012, ISO 7176-13:1989, ISO 7176-14:2008, ISO 7176-15:2014, ISO 7176-21:2009 (Wheelchairs), IEC 60601-1-2:2014 + A1:2020 and IEC 62133-2 Edition 1.0 2017-02 (Lithium batteries) ## SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF CLINICAL DATA: Non-clinical test data are submitted to support this premarket notification and to establish substantial equivalence. No clinical studies are submitted. #### CONCLUSIONS We believe the intended use, the indications for use and principle of operation Handbike Batec Electric are the same as the intended use, indications for use and performance of the predicate devices. We did not use any new technology in this system, so those differences between our new system and its predicate do not affect safety and effectiveness (SE). - . General information of both devices is the same - Intended use and indications/principle of operations of both devices are the same. ● - There are minimum differences in the technological characteristic/performance data of the ● proposed device and those of the predicate devices, all of them comply with ISO 7176 Wheelchairs. Thus, the SE is not affected. Based on the information provided in this premarket notification, Batec Mobility S.L. concludes that Handbike Batec Electric devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate device with regard to safety and effectiveness.
