This humidifier is an integrated humidifier designed in a user-friendly to provide optimum comfort to users by adding moisture to therapy air. A heated tube may be added to therapy to maintain the warmth of the therapy air as it travels through the hose to the mask.
*This product is only compatible with Philips Respironics DreamStation Series machines.
When paired with a DreamStation machine it can monitor ambient temperature and humidity levels in order to adjust the heating levels as needed. Adaptive humidification is intended to provide optimum moisture to therapy air while lowering the chances of condensation building in the hose. The humidifier can also be set to fixed humidification if the user wishes to maintain one heating level throughout the night.
It features an easily accessible water chamber located in the center of the device and can be completely open by gently pushing forward on the tab located on the top of the humidifier. This 325mL chamber is easily lifted with both hands holding either side of the rectangular shape.
This technology was created when the humidifier is used with the DreamStation machine, to help reduce the chance of water damage. Is designed to trap the water within the walls of the unit to prevent water from traveling through the machine and humidifier connection.
The optional heated tube to CPAP therapy may decrease the chances of rainout while providing warmth in the therapy air. When the warm air moves from the humidifier to the machine, the heated tube maintains an elevated temperature to ensure heated air is delivered to the user. When the warm air is pulled into the hose, the temperature of the hose works to prevent environmental temperatures from cooling the warm air inside the tube.
It is compatible with three hose types: a standard 22mm hose, a slim 15mm hose, or the DreamStation slim 15mm heated hose.
