Carilex Dual Flex Hybrid System Mattress and Pump

The Carilex Dual Flex Hybrid System Mattress and Pump is a dynamic hybrid mattress solution, combining high-performance static foam with active alternating air cell technology to deliver exceptional comfort and pressure relief for patients at very high risk.

Key Features

• Hybrid Technology: A dynamic replacement mattress system that integrates a high-performance GELTEX® inside technology foam topper with 19 x 3" nylon alternating air cells. This offers a flexible step-up or step-down mattress system.
• Zonal Pressure Redistribution: The foam layer features a zonal area design to provide effective pressure redistribution on the sacrum, head, shoulder blades, and heel areas. This contributes to low interface pressures for improved blood circulation and wound healing.
• Dual Flex Pump: The ultra-quiet pump provides Alternating Pressure Relief with a 10-minute, 2:1 cycle and CLP (Constant Low Pressure) Therapy.
• Advanced Comfort & Control: Features an Auto-Set function for comfort levels with 5 manual harder and softer settings, eliminating the need for weight input. A Pressure Monitoring Indicator continuously monitors internal mattress pressure.
• Hygienic & Durable Cover: The mattress is protected by a durable, vapour permeable, and water-resistant 2-way stretch coverlet to protect the skin from shearing. It includes a hidden zip for improved infection control.
• Safety & Convenience: Equipped with audible and visual Power Failure and Low Pressure Alarms. The system supports power outage situations (can be used with or without a pump), and includes a Transport Mode where the mattress can stay inflated for up to 15 hours.
• Designed for Profiling Beds: The flexible contour design makes it suitable for profiling beds. It is secured with buckle and straps.

Innovative Hybrid Design

The Carilex Dual Flex system is engineered as a dynamic hybrid mattress solution that prioritises patient comfort and clinical efficacy. Its high-performance foam layer incorporates GELTEX® inside technology, which is clinically proven, breathable, medical-grade, and temperature-resistant. This foam has a specialised zonal area design targeting high-pressure areas such as the sacrum, head, shoulder blades, and heels for effective pressure redistribution. Channels for hose and cell connections are built into the foam base to avoid creating pressure points on the surface. The underlying 19 x 3" nylon air cells feature TPU laminations for longevity and provide active alternating therapy when connected to the pump.

Intelligent Pump Functionality

Alternating therapy is easily applied by connecting the ultra-quiet Dual Flex pump, which operates at less than 28db to ensure a peaceful sleeping environment. The pump offers both dynamic alternating pressure (10-minute, 2:1 cycle) and CLP (Constant Low Pressure) therapy modes. An intelligent Auto-Set feature manages comfort levels automatically, with the option for manual adjustment across 5 harder and softer settings. Continuous pressure monitoring is maintained for optimal internal pressure and maximum pressure relief. Safety is paramount, with clear LED indicators and audible alarms for power failure and low pressure.
