For Sale BIPAP CPAP A40 with Series One humidifier, AVAPS, AVAPS-AE, LOW HOURS, Ventilator

This US made BiPAP / CPAP has less than 42 hours of total usage and is in excellent condition. It comes with a matched Respironics SSD card, humidifier and padded travel carrying case. The software version is 3.6. It was tested using both 24 volt continuous and 12 volt battery power. The blower, display, control buttons SSD and heating element all work as they should and there is no cosmetic damage of note on the machine or humidifier. It has no odors or similar signs of previous use. It was last in use by a government health agency and appears to have been maintained appropriately by them. What you will receive is warranted to be programable and in working order without damage. Please note, though we do have Respironics power supplies and chargers in stock and these do work for testing purposes, we do not have one that provides sufficient amperage ( 4.2 AMPS) for continuous AC use, or a battery module to attached for continuous battery use. The required power supply has the P/N 1142982. The compartment cover for the battery module is also not included as it was missing when this came to us (this has no impact on functionality). There is a cover included for use when the humidifier is not attached. The Respironics carrying bag included is from an earlier model of BiPAP. It is designed to fit under an aircraft seat and, in my opinion, offers much more protection to its contents than the bag this model comes with. If a manual is needed, please scan the link next to the serial number in the picture of this area or write and one will be sent in PDF format at no charge. The power supply pictured is available on request at no charge, but it is suitable only for testing the machine, not using it.

According to Respironics:
BiPAP A40 has been designed to combine ease-of-use and comfort with technological innovations that adapt toa user's condition to deliver enhanced therapy. It is based on a familiar platform and comes with well known and clinically proven Philips Respironics technology such as Auto-Trak, AVAPS and a Dry Box humidifier design. The device is capable of non invasive and invasive pressure ventilation, up to 40 cm H2O, providing treatment for users with chronic insufficiency respiratory issues. BiPAP A40 can provide autonomy and increased support to patients, thanks to its specifically designed battery module. The device features AVAPS-AE, an innovative mode of ventilation designed to help clinicians during titration process, while maintaining comfort and therapy optimization. This new ventilation mode helps in providing long-term therapy compliance regardless of changes to the body position, sleep
stages and respiratory mechanics.
