Device Information
PURPOSE OF THE DEVICE
The purpose of the Static Low-Air-Loss Mattress System is to provide therapeutic benefit to patients at
risk or suffering from pressure ulcers.
The active component that has contact with the patient is a specialized, multi-cell air mattress sized to fit
a standard medical bed frame. The air mattress serves to replace the original mattress and is equipped
with 4 air hoses with connectors that mate with the Air Blower/Control Unit. The Control Unit is a self
contained, totally enclosed module that hangs by retractable hooks on the bed frame at the foot of the
bed or sits on the floor under the bed.
It is provided with a hospital grade electrical cord and a control panel that has a turn dial for pressure
adjustment. Inside the Control Unit is a variable output blower that allows the air mattress to operate in
static mode. There is also a printed circuit board, which provides the electrical controls. The control Unit
has two user replaceable fuses near the AC Power Cord Entry. This fuse is rated 250 Volts, 5 Amps.
