Protekt Aire 5000DX Alternating Pressure Mattress
Protekt Aire 5000DX Alternating Pressure Low Air Loss Mattress
Comfortable, Pressure-Relieving Support for Long Hours in Bed
When spending most of the day and night on the same surface—recovering at home, settling into a long-term care routine, or focusing on daily comfort—the mattress underneath matters more than almost anything else in the room. The Protekt Aire 5000DX pairs alternating pressure with low air loss to keep body weight from concentrating in any single spot. Its air cells inflate and deflate on a continuous cycle, gently shifting where support is applied so users stay comfortable through long, uninterrupted stretches of bed time.
The system is built to drop straight onto a standard home or community living bed frame and run quietly enough for a shared bedroom environment. A 3" densified fiber support base gives the mattress genuine structure, so smooth transitions in and out feel exceptionally stable rather than sinking. For households managing a daily routine, the practical details of this system—simple setup, quiet operation, and a low-shear, easy-clean surface—are what deliver ongoing convenience day after day.
Key Features
- Alternating Pressure Cycling: Air cells inflate and deflate in sequence to continually redistribute support and eliminate sustained contact on any one area.
- Low Air Loss Airflow: Gentle surface circulation helps manage heat and moisture for cooler, drier comfort during extended periods.
- Digital Pump (SKU 80041DX): Features adjustable settings with quiet operation, a hardwired power cord, and a quick-release valve for rapid deflation when needed.
- 3" Densified Fiber Support Base: Adds structural firmness and edge stability for steadier transfers, posture relaxation, and a secure, non-sinking feel.
- Quilted, Water-Resistant Top Cover: A durable, low-shear surface that wipes down easily and resists fluids during the daily routine.
- Standard Footprint Layout: The 36" x 80" x 8" sizing fits seamlessly onto most standard home and care bed frames.
- Raised-Rail Configuration Available: Choose the 80050DXRR option for bolstered side support (overall 36" x 80" x 8"/11") to add an enhanced sense of security.
If you are outfitting a bed for someone who will be on the surface for long stretches each day, buy the complete 5000DX system rather than piecing it together—the pump, bladders, fiber base, and cover are engineered to work as one cohesive unit. Keep this listing's replacement parts bookmarked, though: the cover and bladders naturally experience the most wear over time, and being able to swap a single bladder for about $26 instead of replacing the entire system is what makes this line highly economical over the long run. If edge security is a priority, choose the raised-rail (RR) configuration upfront before delivery rather than attempting to retrofit later.

How does setup work when it arrives?
Lay the mattress on the existing bed frame, connect the hose from the mattress to the digital pump, hang the pump securely at the foot of the bed, and plug it in. The pump begins its cycle automatically without requiring tools. Allow a few minutes for the cells to reach full inflation before use.
How do I clean the cover, and can it handle spills?
The quilted top cover is water-resistant and easily wipes down with a mild cleaner or a diluted solution per the care label. It is specifically designed to resist fluids and reduce surface shear during active movement. Avoid harsh industrial solvents, which can degrade the protective coating over time.
I only need an individual part — which SKU should I select?
Match your selection directly to the component showing wear: order 80053 for the top cover, 80054 for a single non-ventilated bladder, 80052 for the full replacement mattress with base, and 80041DX for the digital pump. Note that the bladder and mattress are compatible across the 3500/5000DX/6450 lines, and the pump is shared across the 4000DX/4600DX/5000DX lines, so confirm your exact system configuration before ordering.
