APEX Medical XT Auto Travel CPAP Machine

Light Weight CPAP with Exceptional Performance

One of the smallest CPAP machines in its class, the APEX XT Auto CPAP machine is an excellent CPAP for frequent travelers that do not wish to lug around bigger CPAP machines. While the XT auto CPAP machine is light weight and smaller in stature than other comparable CPAP machines, it delivers the sleep apnea therapy that you have become accustomed to with other Auto CPAP machines. Providing some of the newest CPAP therapy features like leak compensation, altitude adjustment, and data collection via an SD card for easy to read information that can be stored and shared with your physician.

Pressure Variation Algorithm

Designed to help relieve discomfort and pressuring during your exhale, theÊPressure Variation AlgorithmÊ-ÊPVA will automatically reduce pressure based on three different settings, ensuring that the prescribed pressure is delivered when the CPAP therapy patient needs it most. The PVA will return to your set pressure setting on the inhale so that your comfort and therapy is never compromised during use.

Auto Adjusting Algorithm

The APEX XT Auto CPAP machine will automatically adjust air pressure to the most comfortable, and lowest, levels during CPAP therapy without sacrificing the effectiveness that you are used to. The auto adjust allows for you to sleep comfortably throughout the night.

User Friendly Interface

Easy to read with an LCD display, this APEX CPAP machine's interface is user friendly and allows for quick adjustments of your settings. The information of your therapy is stored on an SD Card that allows for you to read it on any PC computer after uploading. The SD card also allows for you to store your information so that a physician or healthcare provider can read how effective your CPAP therapy is and make whatever necessary adjustments they, or you, see fit in order to better the therapy you receive.

Power supply already built in

No external power supply brick as it is built into the machine meaning less stuff to carry making the XT Auto CPAP MachineÊperfect for traveling. Powering the machine requires the power cord to be plugged into the wall outlet.

Optional APEX Medical XT Fit Heated Humidifier

The XT Fit Humidifier which is sold seperately is designed to be the perfect CPAP companion. Used in conjunction with the Apex Cpap it can add aÊbit of bulk to the overall machine sizeÊhowever it packs the same punch that you would expect from larger CPAP machines. APEX has developed a great alternative for those who need a travel friendly but effective CPAP device. Heated Humidifier The heated humidifier reduces the irritation commonly associated with CPAP therapy. Traditional CPAP devices can cause irritation of the throat and nasal passages but humidified air can eliminate dryness. The humidifier will provide up to 8 hours of humidification per night at a minimum. APEX has vigorously tested the humidifier and found you can reliably expect 8 hours minimum for a full water chamber. Please note: 2-year warranty is voided by water damage/misuse of the machine.

Reviewers Tip: You can purchase a humidifier that attaches to this auto CPAP machine for sale, and the water chamber should always be filled with distilled water. While the water chamber may be safe in the dishwasher, there is a silicone seal that can get damaged by frequent use, shortening the life span of the chamber and causing you to replace more frequently. I recommend using a warm water and a detergent that is mild and clean your water chamber as frequently as possible. Distilled water will also help extend the life span of the chamber as it will prevent calcium build up that can happen with frequent use of tap water.

FAQ

How often should I clean and replace the filter? The grey filter that comes with the machine is washable and reusable, and should last every six months or so if it is properly maintained. Clean the filter once every two weeks at the bare minimum, and if the environment in which your Apex XT is housed is very dusty you should clean the filter more often so that you can receive the best performance from your machine. Can the patient power the device by a battery or a car adapter? The XT series CPAP system doesnÕt have DC capability so it canÕt be powered by a battery or a car adapter. However, it can be used with a DC to ACÊinverterÊÊ(only CPAP, not the heated humidifier).Ê The iCH series CPAP system can operate with an inverter or converter. The converters allow users to operate the device from a 12V or 24V DC power source. Do I need a converter if I travel abroad? No, you will need a special plug in order to plug in your machine, but the Apex ST can be used on international power grids, anywhere from 100 volts to 240 volts without needing to be adjusted, which makes it an ideal machine for traveling.
