Ultra-Quiet Machine Won’t Disrupt Your Bed Partner’s Sleep

The AirSense10 Elite machine features a quiet easy breathe motor in the base of the device and clocks in at just 27 decibels - about the same noise level as the gentle rustling of leaves.

Weighs 23% Less Than Previous Models

Because the humidification system is built into this CPAP device, the machine itself is less bulky and contains fewer parts, making it lighter than past models. Having integrated humidification simplifies your device's setup time while the consistent humidification itself can help you ease into CPAP therapy even more effectively. 

For even more benefits, try using a heated tube to ensure your humidification remains at the optimal temperature.

Intuitive Display Screen and Accessible Therapy Data

The machine’s forward-facing color LCD screen offers simple navigation, automatic screen brightness adjustments, and advanced therapy data you can review from the Sleep Menu, including:

• Usage Data
• Events Per Hour
• Average Usage
• Leak Rate
• AHI

The AirSense 10 Elite CPAP also offers pulse oximetry monitoring, monitoring for respiratory effort related arousal events (RERA), and features an ambient light sensor to automatically adjust or turn off screen brightness depending on the light level in the room.

Customize Your Sleep Preferences With Ease

You can modify the following device settings on the colored LCD display screen with an easy-grip dial:

• Ramp Time: Ease into therapy with a period of lower pressure or select AutoRamp with sleep onset detection to let the device adjust to the prescribed level based on when sleep begins.
• SmartStart: Once the device senses breathing, therapy will automatically start.
• Humidity Level: Choose between 1 (lowest) and 8 (highest), or shut the humidity setting off completely.
• Warmup: Additionally, you can preheat the humidifier water before starting therapy with the Run Warmup setting.
• Mask Fit: Ensure proper mask fit with a seal integrity check. You will see a green smiling face for a good fit or a red frowning face for a poor fit.
• Leak Alert: Continuous beeping will alert you if a large leak or mask removal is detected. 

Breathe Naturally With Expiratory Pressure Relief

Customers notice a more natural breathing pattern thanks to ResMed’s Expiratory Pressure Relief (EPR) comfort setting, which maintains optimal treatment pressure during inhalation and softens airflow during exhalation. The EPR can be set to three different levels or completely turned off.

Travel Bag Tips

As of early 2015, the AirSense™ 10 Elite Machine with HumidAir™ Heated Humidifier comes with an upgraded travel bag. The improved design is bigger, measuring 13.24 in long, 12 in wide, and 5 in tall. The larger space allows the user to pack and protect their machine as well as the accessories for the machine, such as a mask. There is a zippered compartment located between the lid and the base of the bag. The included SlimLine™ hose is located in this compartment. An image of a hose is placed along the compartment to note it is the location where the user can safely store the hose. Additional images are placed on the flap near the edge of the bag. These pictures signify the designated location for the power cord and the mask.

Manufacturer Warranty

This machine comes with a 2-year manufacturer warranty.

Replacement Schedule

• Disposable Filter: Once Every Month
• SlimLine Tubing: Once Every Six to Twelve Months
• Humidifier Chamber: Once Every Six to Twelve Months

Humidifier Tips

Do not fill the water chamber past the max fill line as this could result in water entering and damaging the device. Allow the water chamber to cool for ten minutes after use before handling as it could be too hot to the touch. The machine will display a blue snowflake in the upper right of the screen while cooling is taking place.

Wash the water chamber weekly using warm water and a mild detergent, rinsed well, and allowed to dry out of direct sunlight. The standard water chamber included is not dishwasher safe and should only be hand washed. To view a dishwasher safe chamber, see the Dishwasher Safe Water Chamber for AirSense™ 10 Humidair™ Heated Humidifier.

If the integrated heated humidifier is not being used, purchase the Side Cover for AirSense™ 10, AirStart™ 10, and AirCurve™ 10 Machines separately in order to enclose the machine opening. The side cover is not needed to operate the machine.

How to Determine if the Water Chamber is Dishwasher Safe?

AirSense™ 10 and AirCurve™ 10 machines denote the water chamber model with an "S" or "C" label. Look directly above the maximum fill line located on the side of the chamber to find the word HumidAir™ and the corresponding letter embossed into the tank.

• If the water chamber is dishwasher safe, the chamber will appear as HumidAir C, which represents a cleanable tank.
• If the water chamber is the standard model, the chamber will appear as HumidAir S, which represents a standard tank.

Hose Tips

Either a 15mm (Slim) hose or a 22mm (Standard) hose may be used with the AirSense™ 10 line of machines. The machine must be changed to the proper setting to ensure accurate therapy pressure. Also available is the optional ClimateLineAir™ heated hose which will instantly activate the Auto Climate Control feature when connected to the machine.

A SlimLine™ hose is included with the purchase of the AirSense™ 10 Elite machine. The hose is found in the interior, zipped compartment of the travel bag. The zippered nook is located at the point where the cover meets the bottom of the travel bag at the back of the machine compartment.

AutoRamp™ Tips

The AirSense™ 10 Elite features AutoRamp™ technology. Unlike traditional ramp features that will slowly ramp up pressure over a set amount of time, AutoRamp™ will stay at the set starting pressure until it senses the user is asleep. The default starting pressure is 4 cm H2O. Once the user is asleep, it will then start ramping 1 cm H2O per minute until it reaches the full prescribed pressure. AutoRamp™ will always reach the full prescribed pressure within 30 minutes, so even if not asleep, the machine will start to ramp in 1 cm H2O increments every minute to reach the full prescribed pressure at the 30-minute mark. Additionally, the AirSense 10 Elite machines can be set to a traditional ramp if needed or turned off altogether.

SmartStart™ Tips

SmartStart™ technology may not function as intended when used with a nasal pillow mask and a pressure setting of 7 cm H2O or less. If the feature does not appear to be functioning, this comfort feature can be turned off. Please refer to the User Guide for more information.

Cleaning Tips

• We recommend washing the hose using mild soap and water or rinsing with vinegar.
• For a better clean, use a tube brush to scrub the hard-to-reach parts of your hose.
• When you’re finished, rinse with clean drinking water and hang over a towel rack to drip dry.

EXP48 Pro and EXP96 Lithium-Ion Batteries

Using the AirSense 10 DC Converter, you can connect your AirSense 10 Series machine to the EXP48 Pro and EXP96 Pro batteries. These batteries last up to ten times longer than traditional batteries and can yield run times up to six nights (with the EXP96). Because of their unique design, they can also charge faster than similar batteries, making it a win-win for anyone going off-grid.
