Protekt Aire 7000 Lateral Rotation Mattress
Proactive Protekt Aire 7000 Lateral Rotation Air Mattress
Four Therapies in One Surface — Now in Three Widths
When users spend nearly all of their time in bed during an extended home care routine, managing position changes manually can become incredibly demanding. The Protekt Aire 7000 stands as the most capable system in the line, combining four distinct functions within a single mattress layout: lateral rotation, low air loss, alternating pressure, and pulsation. The standout feature is its programmable lateral rotation, which gently and steadily turns the body from side to side on a set cycle, easing the burden of frequent manual repositioning while keeping weight moving to maintain steady daily comfort.
Alongside the advanced rotation, alternating pressure cells cycle continuously to redistribute support, low air loss circulation actively manages heat and moisture at the textile surface, and a specialized pulsation mode adds gentle micro-movement for posture relaxation. Available in three distinct widths—a standard 36", an expanded 42", and a spacious 48"—this premium personal system can be matched precisely to your bed frame and space requirements. Choose your width above to enjoy the same multi-mode versatility driven by a single high-performance controller.
Key Performance Features
- Automated Lateral Rotation: The surface gently turns the user side to side on a timed cycle, minimizing the need for constant manual intervention.
- Low Air Loss Airflow: Continuous surface circulation helps manage heat and moisture for cooler, drier daily comfort over long periods in bed.
- Alternating Pressure Cycling: Air cells inflate and deflate in a precise sequence to keep sustained pressure from concentrating on any single area.
- Pulsation Mode: Delivers rhythmic micro-movements layered into the surface for enhanced pressure relaxation and comfort.
- Three Modular Widths: Available in 36", 42", and 48" widths (all 80" long) with an 8" base depth that rises to 11" at the bolstered sides to support stable rotation.
- Dedicated Multi-Mode Pump (Model 80071): Powers all four therapy modes from a single digital controller equipped with a rapid safety deflation valve. One pump operates all width variants.
- Quilted, Water-Resistant Top Cover: Fluid-resistant, low-shear surface designed for simple wiping and straightforward textile preservation.
Equipment Specialist Insight: This is the system to specify when manual repositioning is your main daily bottleneck. The automated lateral rotation is what sets the 7000 apart from standard pressure-relief surfaces. On width selection: pick the size that matches your bed frame exactly rather than choosing a larger size by default, as a rotating surface relies on a precise fit to function optimally. Ensure you budget space at the foot of the bed for the larger, dedicated pump unit, and verify that your frame setup accommodates an actively turning surface before completing your installation.

Q: Which width configuration should I select for my layout?
A: Always match the mattress width directly to the specifications of your existing bed frame. The 36" width fits a standard home care bed frame, while the 42" and 48" options provide extra surface space for expanded setups. All three sizes are 80" long, use the exact same digital pump unit, and deliver identical four-mode therapies.
Q: How does the Protekt Aire 7000 differ from the rest of the product family?
A: The core distinction is lateral rotation capability. While other models focus exclusively on alternating pressure and low air loss within a stationary plane, the 7000 actively turns the user from side to side. It combines this physical rotation with air loss, pressure cycling, and pulsation to form a comprehensive all-in-one system.
Q: Does this system require a specialized bed frame or custom setup?
A: It is designed to fit standard 80" long home care bed frames in the specific width chosen. However, because the mattress surface actively rotates and repositions weight, you must confirm that your frame structure and side accessories are fully compatible with a moving surface. Ensure there is adequate clearance at the foot of the bed for the dedicated multi-mode controller.
