Any easy way to identify an A-flex Auto?

My health insurance recently added DME coverage. With the help of my sleep doctor who gave me a prescription for an APAP with A-Flex and a cooperative local DME, I'm hoping to have a new Respironics machine in the next week or two.

But I can't help but think that things are going too smoothly - call me a skeptic if you will. Is there any easy way to distinguish a Respironics APAP with A-flex from the older C-flex machines? I wouldn't want to go home with the wrong machine.

A-Flex is printed directly on the machine, you can't miss it!

Well, looks like it should be easy enough to see if I get what was ordered.

Thanks.

On the bottom of the Respironic product is a model and serial number. Check to see it is the model you are supposed to receive.

The words on the top surface of the Auto with A-Flex will look just like the picture DreamStalker put up. The word "A-flex" is what matters. If you see that, it's the right machine.

If you want to look on the underside as Ody suggested, the model # will be 510 followed by a letter.
