  • Page 4: Intended Use

    Intended Use The Aeris Performance 2 (AP2) prosthetic foot is intended for use in lower extremity prostheses. The foot uses three carbon composite elements (Figure 1) that conform to terrain while storing and releasing energy during gait. The two upper carbon springs in the AP2 combine to provide a high rate of energy return while the separation between those springs reduces stiffness in all three planes.

  • Page 5: Warnings And Precautions

    CAUTION: Fillauer has tested (ISO 10328) and recommends the use of standard, adult, endoskeletal components from Fillauer with all Fillauer feet. Components from other manufacturers may or may not be compatible. Failure due to use of other manufacturers’ products is not covered under warranty.

  • Page 6: Alignment (Specifications & Preparations Before Use)

    Figure 2 Static and Bench Alignment Standard bench alignment techniques may be used for the Aeris Performance 2 foot (Figure 2). Before aligning, the initial heel height should be established. The Aeris Performance 2 is designed for a ⅜ inch or 1 cm heel height. The initial heel height can be established with a simple spacer under the heel.
  • Page 7 Dynamic Alignment The Aeris Performance 2 foot is flexible and conforms to uneven terrain. This characteristic may mask forefoot loading anomalies during static alignment that may then become more noticeable during dynamic alignment. Small alignment changes will smooth the transition from heel to toe and optimize gait.
