2570 Series Cross Reference Sheet Air Fluidized Therapy (AFT) beds set the standard in wound care, providing superior support for patients with chronic wounds. These beds rely on precise temperature regulation to maintain their fluid-like surface and aid healing. Integrating an Air Fluidized Bed Thermostat, like the Senasys Snap Disc Thermostat, ensures consistent operation, safeguards the bed from overheating, and enhances patient comfort.
Discover our 430 Series Snap Disc Thermostats for advanced medical applications like Air Fluidized Therapy beds.
How the Air Fluidized Bed Thermostat Functions
Air Fluidized Therapy beds use silicone-coated microspheres to create a dynamic, fluid-like environment. Warm air flows through the microspheres to support the body, reduce friction, and regulate moisture. An air fluidized bed thermostat is connected to the heating element and ensures safety by:
- Opening the circuit at 105°F to deactivate the heater, preventing overheating.
- Closing the circuit at 95°F to reactivate the heater, maintaining optimal bed performance.
This automated temperature regulation protects the bed while supporting patient healing.
