- Up to four one-liter fluid containers
- Two transport IV pumps
All configurations include large hook-and-loop straps to stabilize IV containers securely during transport.
Where does the IV pole securely mount?
The Ferno 513 Series IV Pole is engineered for permanent mounting onto compatible patient transport devices, guaranteeing stability and reliability during transport.
Its specific mounting location depends on the model configuration:
- Cot Main Frame: Standard models (e.g., 513-10, 513-11, 513-13) permanently mount directly to the main frame of compatible Ferno cots and stretchers.
- Bariatric Boards: The 513-LBS model is designed for secure mounting to the LBS and LBS Jr. Bariatric Boards, affixing to a notch or mounting blocks.
- Basket Stretchers: The 513-4 model is configured for Series 71 Basket Stretchers.
Once upright, the pole is secured using a twist lock mechanism. The unit has a general load limit of 50 lb.
Does the IV pole have smooth height adjustment?
Yes, the Ferno 513 Series IV Pole utilizes a telescoping design for precise, adjustable height settings during patient transport.
This system is engineered for reliable and secure adjustment:
- Smooth Extension: A durable nylon insert ensures the pole extends smoothly and straightly.
- Secure Locking: The desired height is firmly held in place using a reliable twist lock mechanism (lock sleeve).
- Variable Range: The overall height clearance varies by model configuration, with available extended lengths ranging from approximately 24 inches up to 49 inches.
Does the IV pole feature compact storage?
Yes, most configurations of the Ferno 513 Series IV Pole are designed for compact stowage.
It features a telescoping mechanism that allows the pole to fold down neatly alongside the cot mattress when not in use, ensuring it is out of the way during transport.
Note: The Model 513-13 is an exception; this specific variant does not fold along the side of the cot mattress.
Does this IV pole fit many cot models?
Yes, the Ferno 513 Series IV Pole is designed to permanently mount to the main frame of a wide selection of Ferno cots and stretchers, ensuring secure IV fluid administration during transport. The series features specific models tailored for different equipment:

- Basket Stretchers: The Model 513-4 is designed for the Model 71 Series Basket Stretcher.
- Bariatric Boards: The Model 513-LBS fits LBS and LBS Jr Bariatric Boards.
