Supplemental oxygen

Supplemental oxygen can be used with the S9 VPAP Tx. For more information, see "Adding supplemental
oxygen" on page 22.

Antibacterial filters

Antibacterial filters increase resistance in the air circuit and may affect accuracy of displayed and
delivered pressure, particularly at high flows. ResMed has tested and recommends using an antibacterial
filter with a low impedance (eg, 2 cm H O at 60 L/min).

Humidifier

The S9 VPAP Tx is compatible with the H5i heated humidifier. For further information on using this
humidifier refer to the H5i user guide.

USB Adapter

The S9 USB Adapter is designed for use with the S9 VPAP Tx. The USB adapter connects the S9 VPAP Tx
to a personal computer via Tx Link for remote monitoring and control. For further information on using
this adapter refer to the S9 USB Adapter user guide.

Climate Control

The S9 VPAP Tx, when used in conjunction with the H5i and ClimateLine or ClimateLine heated air
MAX
tubing, offers a feature called Climate Control.
Climate Control enables the automatic delivery of a constant value of absolute humidity to the patient's
upper airway while protecting against rainout and allowing patients to select the air temperature that
offers the most comfort for them.
