Active Air 8 Alternating Mattress Replacement — NDIS Pressure Care Mattress Australia

The Active Air 8 is a dynamic mattress replacement from Aspire, Aidacare's equipment range, rated for people at high risk of pressure injury. It replaces the existing mattress entirely rather than sitting on top, so the full 200 mm depth of the surface works to protect skin. You will find it in acute wards and long term care, and it fits a home care bed just as well. Cell-in-Cell technology sits at the heart of it. Internal safety cells stay fully inflated at all times, so even at the low point of the alternating cycle the user is protected from bottoming out. Twenty air cells make up the surface: 17 alternate in a 1 in 2 cycle with selectable times of 10 to 30 minutes, while 3 static cells keep the head area steady. The digital pump takes care of the decisions. AutoDetect sets the right pressure automatically from the user's weight and size. AutoProtect goes a step further: raise the head of the bed past 45 degrees and the mattress increases its pressure on its own to stop the user bottoming out. Continuous Low Pressure (CLP) mode is there when deeper immersion and envelopment matter most, the LCD screen shows cycle time, mode and fault codes at a glance, and AutoLock secures the panel 30 seconds after the last touch. It all runs quietly, with little vibration to disturb sleep. If the power fails, 24 hour Transport Mode holds air in the mattress so the user stays on an inflated surface until it returns. Welded seams and zip protection keep fluids and bacteria out, and the multi-stretch cover reduces shear, breathes with a high moisture vapour transfer rate and machine washes at 95 degrees. The power cord is retained within the mattress rather than trailing as a trip hazard. Safe working load is 30 to 200 kg, with a 2 year warranty on pump and mattress, and an optional Rapid Inflation Turbo Pump and carry bag make moving the system between beds faster.
