The alternating pressure times indicate the frequency of deflation or inflation of half of the air cushions (even or odd numbered). For example, 10 minutes is selected. In this example, the even numbered air cushions in the mattress will deflate, while the odd numbered cushions remain at constant pressure. When 10 minutes has elapsed, the even numbered air cushions will inflate while the odd numbered cushions remain at constant pressure. When 10 minutes has elapsed again, the odd numbered air cushions deflate while the even numbered cushions remain at constant pressure. The air cushions continue to inflate or deflate like this as long as an alternating pressure time has been selected. At all times, half of the air cushions remain at a constant pressure when an alternating pressure time has been selected.

Notable Features
Product rolls up for easy storage and handling. Attached over-should carry strap allows for easy transport.

• High Risk to Stage II (Prevention and Ulcer Treatment): Ideal for High Risk Ulcer Prevention and for treatment of patients who already have Stage II skin breakdown.
  
• Alternating Pressure: Reduces interface pressure to aid in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers.
• On Demand Low Air Loss: Air is sent inside the mattress to keep the mattress environment cool ad assist with moisture management and maintain a dryer environment. The On Demand Low Air Loss pushes air in between the bladders.
• Alternating Pressure Therapy Time Cycles: Cycles of 5, 10, 15, 20 minutes
• 20 Air Cells: Made from 70 Denier urethane coated nylon. Easy connect and disconnect with quick connect elbows.
• Safety Foam Mat: Added safety feature to prevent patient from bottoming out.
• Constant Pressure Monitoring: Sensor techonology constantly adjusts the pressure to regulate the air inside the mattress and maintain the pressure at or below 32mm/Hg to avoid capillary occlusion.
• Manual Fowler: 25% more air is added into the mattress, preventing the patient from bottoming out.
• Audio and Visual Alarms: Warns patient and caregiver of low pressure and power outage.
• System Lock Out Button: Prevents tampering or accidental adjustments
• Power Outage Safety: Mattress remains inflated as long as the air hose remains connected to the compressor. System returns to pre-power outage settings.
• Mattress Cover: Anti-microbial, fluid-proof, vapor permeable, guards against friction and shear. 70 Denier quilted nylon with 1000 denier nylon bottom.
• Compressor: 10 LPM compressor
