F/p 244 SleepStyle - What are your leakage rates?

Post by larry63 » Sun Sep 26, 2010 10:24 am

There a a few of us who are concerned by the leakage rates that this unit is reporting. We are getting leakage rates of about 60 lpm, and even with everything blocked off (inlet to the humidier taped over for example), the rate only goes down to around 30.

Two of use at at 10 cm pressure, and should be only having about 30 leakage when the mask is in place.

It would be helpful to us if other people could report the leakage that shows on their LCD display (it can be configured to show this - see the manual).

TIA.
