Overview
The Ergotron 98-648-251 CareFit Combo Extender, Short, is a white extension arm designed for compatible Ergotron CareFit Combo systems and arms. It provides additional reach and positioning flexibility for workstation installations where the standard mounting arrangement does not provide the required placement.
Designed for healthcare workstation environments, this accessory allows the mounted equipment to be positioned farther from its mounting point and moved to suit the available workspace. The short configuration is intended for applications requiring the corresponding CareFit Combo extender length.
Movement and Positioning
The extender supports 180-degree panning, allowing the connected mounting assembly to swing through its supported range of movement. This helps users reposition compatible workstation equipment and move the assembly toward the wall when the workspace needs to be cleared.
Actual movement and positioning depend on the complete CareFit Combo configuration, the attached equipment, and the installation conditions.
Key Features
- Short extender configuration: Provides additional reach for compatible CareFit Combo installations.
- 180-degree panning: Supports a defined horizontal swing range for repositioning mounted equipment.
- Flexible workstation placement: Extends the available positioning range of a compatible CareFit Combo system or arm.
- Wall-side stowing: Allows the compatible assembly to be pushed toward the wall when not in use, subject to installation clearance.
- White finish: Matches the specified white CareFit Combo accessory configuration.
Compatibility and Installation
The Ergotron 98-648-251 is designed for compatible Ergotron CareFit Combo systems or arms. It is the short version of the CareFit Combo Extender, distinct from the longer 98-547-251 model.
Before installation, confirm the exact CareFit Combo system or arm model and verify that the short extender is approved for that configuration. Follow Ergotron's installation instructions and check that the assembled workstation has sufficient clearance for its intended range of movement.
Applications
This extender is intended for healthcare workstation installations that need additional reach or more flexible positioning of mounted equipment. Potential applications include clinical work areas where a CareFit Combo assembly needs to move between an accessible working position and a more compact position near the wall.
DC Supplies Product Note
Choose the short extender according to the reach requirements and available clearance of the installation. The 98-648-251 and the longer 98-547-251 are separate part numbers, so verify the required configuration rather than selecting solely by the shared CareFit Combo name.
