What to do if airflow stops or mask leak is reported with DeVilbiss IntelliPAP DV55 Bilevel S CPAP?

  Donald AndersonAug 16, 2025
  If the airflow from your DeVilbiss Personal Care Products device stops unexpectedly or reports a mask leak, it might be due to several reasons. First, the Auto-OFF feature may have detected a large airflow because of a loosely fitting mask. Make sure you have a good mask fit by adjusting the mask and headgear. Second, you might be mouth-breathing during use. Contact your equipment provider for a chin strap or a different mask to prevent mouth-breathing. Third, the humidifier chamber might not be fully engaged or is missing; ensure it is fully in place and the release latch clicks. Finally, the air supply port plug might be missing or not fully inserted into the back of the CPAP; ensure it's fully inserted.

  If nothing shows on the display of your DeVilbiss Personal Care Products device, first ensure that the power cord is firmly connected to both the device and the power outlet. If you're using a DC power source, verify that the cable connections are secure and the battery is charged. If you're using an optional humidifier, ensure the flow generator is fully seated on the humidifier cradle, referring to the assembly instructions. Finally, check if there is power from the outlet by testing with another device or trying a different outlet.

What to do if DeVilbiss Personal Care Products device doesn't start with breathing?

  Alexa MonroeAug 22, 2025
  If your DeVilbiss Personal Care Products device doesn't start when breathing into the mask, it could be due to several reasons. First, the Auto-ON feature might be disabled, so use the ON/OFF button to start and stop the device. Second, ensure the device is properly connected to a power source. Third, try breathing more deeply in and out, as your breath might not be deep enough for the Auto-ON feature to detect. Fourth, if you are using a full face mask with an anti-asphyxia valve, Auto-ON may not work; use the ON/OFF button instead. Fifth, check that the air supply port plug is fully inserted into the unit. Finally, ensure the humidifier chamber is correctly placed and latched into the cradle.

  If the air from your DeVilbiss Personal Care Products flow generator seems too warm, several factors could be responsible. Start by cleaning the air filters, as they may be dirty. Next, check if the air inlet port is blocked and unblock it if necessary. Also, consider if the room temperature is too high and lower it accordingly. Ensure the device is not located near a heat source, and if you're using a humidifier, lower its heater setting.

  If you notice water condensation collecting in the hose of your DeVilbiss Personal Care Products device, causing a gurgling sound, it could be because the humidification level is too high. Try reducing the humidifier heater setting. Additionally, fluctuations in room temperature can contribute to this issue; try to maintain a more consistent room temperature or increase it.

How to adjust pressure changes on DeVilbiss IntelliPAP DV55 Bilevel S CPAP Personal Care Products Bilevel?
- J
  Jennifer PorterSep 12, 2025
  If your Bilevel device changes pressure too early or too late, not following your breathing, the trigger sensitivity might not be set correctly. Adjust the inspiratory and expiratory trigger sensitivity to better match your breathing patterns. Alternatively, if the backup rate (time) is too high and you are breathing slower than the backup rate, reduce the Backup Rate setting.
