Simply purchase the control unit and then choose the overlay to best match your requirements.<br /><br /><strong>Control Unit</strong><br />The control unit has built in software that enables optimal, patient-customised inner cushion pressure settings based on the Body Mass Index of each patient. Using one control unit, for both mattresses and all pressure levels, lowers storage costs, service and training requirements. The system, which is virtually noise and vibration-free, allows high-quality resting comfort and enhances the quality of life of bedridden patients.

Micro-perforations on the overlay facilitate an improved microclimate and lying stability is improved due to the two-chamber system. Supplied with a vapour permeable cover. Suitable for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers up to and including level III on the Norton scale, and for immobile patients who use a standard mattress and rely on optimal cushion pressure distribution. Overlay height when filled is 110mm (4¼").

Overlay height when filled is 140mm (5½"). Can be re-used following chemical cleaning. Guarantee 2 years.<br /><br />Min. user weight 40kg / 6¼st<br />Max. user weight 150kg / 23 ½st]]></description>
