Tiny & Lightweight

The Z1 CPAP machine is the lightest on the market. Its small size makes this machine great for putting in a carry on, overnight bag or backpack for camping and hiking. When used at home, the small size takes up little room on the bedside table. Small rubber feet on the machine base help to stabilize the unit. It weighs just 10 ounces and measures 6.48″ L x 3.3″ W x 2.02″ making it roughly the size of a can of soda.

Quiet Operations

The Z1 CPAP Machine operates at 26 dBA making it one of the quietest machines on the market. How quiet is 26 decibels? A very quiet room fan 3 feet away and set to a low speed is noted as 35dBA.

Advanced Features

• Z-Breathe Pressure Relief: The Z1 CPAP machine offers a reduction in the air pressure to smooth the exhalation process making breathing with the machine a more natural process. Per the manufacturer, set Z-Breathe to 1 for gentle pressure relief, 2 for moderate pressure relief, and 3 for the most aggressive pressure relief.Please Note: Setting 3 is only available through the latest firmware upgrade. Z1 machines purchased prior to June 2014 will need to have the firmware updated to enable Setting 3. Please see the “Firmware Update” section below for instructions on how to install this update if needed.
• Auto Altitude Adjustment: The Z1 CPAP machine can operate from sea level up to 8,000 feet above sea level. The machine automatically adjusts as needed to accommodate changes in elevation.
• Leak Compensation: To help ensure the prescribe pressure is being met during therapy the Z1 machine adjusts the pressure to account for minor air leaks. If an excessive air leak is detected the word “REMINDER” is displayed on the screen. Correct the leak to remove the word reminder.

Ramp Feature

The Z1 CPAP machine includes a ramp feature that can be set from 0 to 45 minutes. This allows the therapy pressure to begin at a lower starting pressure and work up to the prescribed pressure. Many CPAP users find this a more comfortable way to fall to sleep. The machine can be set with or without a ramp time.

OPTIONAL Integrated PowerShell Battery

The Z1 CPAP can be ready to go with the optional PowerShell with Battery. The battery is fully integrated with the machine using the unique PowerShell design which holds both the machine and battery in one compact bundle. Battery can be used to run the Z1 machine independently or use the battery as a fail over in case the AC power is interrupted. The PowerShell even includes a handy lanyard allowing the machine and battery to be hung close at hand, such as on a headboard.
