Features of the Airo HTMH

 

  • Light and Portable
    With a weight of just1.5Kg and an overall length of 320mm the airo HTMH is extremely portable.  It can be easily carried in a regular sports bag or typical carry-on hand luggage.
   

 

  • Adaptive Programming
    The airo HTMH is able to simulate altitudes of up to 7,500 metres (26,000ft), or 8% oxygen.
    Each course has optimal oxygen levels and SpO2 targets programmed into it.  The auto pulse-oximeter monitors the user's response to each session’s protocol.  The unit will automatically adjust the level of oxygen to maintain a consistent level of SpO2 stress on the user’s body.  By having SpO2 levels monitored and adjusted by the airo HTMH, the effectiveness of the program is greater than those systems where SpO2 levels are monitored manually.
   

 

  • Hands Free
    By having the pulse-oximeter attached to the ear, and the mask comfortably worn on the head, your hands are free to use your laptop or read a book, etc.
  • Flexible Protocols
    airo altitude simulation units are programmable, and allow for flexible protocols without compromising the effectiveness of the course.  There are a number of pre-programmed courses included to meet the requirements of all levels of fitness. Whether you are looking for a step up into a more active lifestyle, or an elite athlete looking for personal bests, there is an airo program to meet your needs.

 

  • Easy Programming
    The airo HTMH is programmed via a cross-over Ethernet cable, with the operating page visible through the Microsoft Internet Explorer Web Browser.  A web address will be supplied to access the operator and engineering page.

 

  • Less Time Required
    Program protocols have been improved to meet the demands of the user.  A standard airo session takes just forty minutes to complete.  This saves the user five hours over a standard 15 day course.

 

 

 

  • Instant Feedback
    An airo Altitude Simulation Training program provides three test sessions to monitor your progress during the course.  Each test session will provide instant feedback regarding the improvement in the user’s adaptive responses to the program.

    The data from each session of the course is recorded and downloaded.  The information is supplied to the user.  An airo consultant will analyse the results and consult with the user to monitor the clients response to the program.

     

 

  • Safety Features
    The airo HTMH includes three safety features which monitor the user’s vital signs during each session.  If the user’s vital signs move outside the safety parameters for the session, the airo HTMH will automatically pause the session.  The user will be given sufficient time to recover before re-starting the session.  If the user is consistently operating below the safety parameters the airo HTMH will cancel the session.  The user will not be able to start another session for twelve hours.

  • Self Diagnostic
    The airo HTMH will automatically detect system issues through the self diagnostic program.  The issue will be detailed on the screen prompting the user to correct the issue.
