System overview

The DreamStation Go Heated Humidifier attaches to the therapy device and provides an air outlet port to connect
a breathing circuit. The breathing circuit is composed of patient tubing, a mask, and in some instances a separate
exhalation device. The patient tubing is 12 mm performance tubing. For information related to the mask to be used,
including any need for a separate exhalation device, consult the instructions for use that accompany both the mask
and therapy device.
Note
The DreamStation Go Heated Humidifier is not supported for use with battery power. Only connect the CPAP

The DreamStation Go Heated Humidifier is designed to deliver humidification for added comfort during therapy. This
humidification level is controlled through the output of the heated humidifier.
