Remstar Auto needs new home

Post by grybeard77 » Fri Feb 03, 2012 3:30 pm

Now that I have retired my Intellipap travel Auto to backup status, I have my original backup that needs a home.
It is a Remstar Auto with C-Flex that has 1581.3 hours on it, still runs quiet, has heated humidifier with new tank,
Encore pro software CD, all manuals and I have a new spare hose and several masks I never used I will throw in too.
Non smoker house so it doesn't smell.
$50.00 takes all, including shipping in the USA.

PM me if interested.

Hello, I've only been on bipap for a month and a half but want a backup unit. My pressure Rx is 19/15. Is this machine strictly cpap or will it work for my prescription? Also, can this machine be run on DC? Thanks

The machine is APAP and it won't do the BiPap settings you need. It will do either straight cpap or variable auto pressures but still only one pressure. It can't do 2 different pressures at one time like your BiPap can.
Unsure about the DC part. I never have had the need to study up on it.
I believe this is the machine here....hmmm they say DC okay...https://www.cpap.com/cpap-machine/respi ... cflex.html

The machine mentioned is an Autopap... not a BiPAP/Bi-level.

afaik - ALL Respironics machines can be run on straight DC without the need for any kind of pricey proprietary converter.

Remstar product page says it needs a separate cable and adaptor for DC operation. Not sure what a adaptor is that does that...

Philips Respironics REMstar CPAP/APAP machines - Blower and humidifier will run on 12V DC.
I think all the bilevel machines also do 12V, but am not 100% sure.

Respironics REMstar M series CPAP/APAP blower will run on 12VDC.
Newer units will run the humidifier on 12VDC, older ones require 120VAC for the humidifier.

Respironic REMstar Legacy Plus, Pro, and Auto machines run the blower off of 12 VDC. Heated humidifier is AC only.
At least some of the bilevel machines require 24 VDC for the blower. All heated humidifiers are AC only.

I'm not sure about older Respironics units.

All these 12V Respironics and Philips Respironics machines use the same DC connector. The adapter is only wiring, no fancy electronics.
