UNITY™ SYSTEM OVERVIEW
• The Unity™ System is designed to provide elevated vacuum for
socket suspension. Expected attainable vacuum that the Unity™
System achieves is ranging from 15 – 18 inHg.
• With the Unity™ System, assisted suspension is obtained through the
act of a pump which draws air out from the socket in each step
creating an elevated vacuum inside the socket interface.
• The Unity™ System is provided preassembled to a PROPRIO FOOT
.
• The Unity™ System is designed to function in any temperature and
humidity that the user encounters during normal use.
note: The use of wedges can affect the number of steps needed for full
vacuum.
