Aircast Cryo/Cuff IC (Motorized) System with Cooler & Knee Cuff ( A Total Knee Therapy Solution)
Aircast knee cryo cuff is a modern knee recovery solution. This unit provides both comfort and effective pain relief. The knee cryo cuff helps recover from injuries, sports accidents, or post-op surgeries. A healing and therapeutic device that boasts a range of impressive features:
The Aircast IC Cooler
The Aircast IC Cooler operates through a closed-loop system. The single hose mechanism moves cold water from the cooler to the knee cryo cuff and back. Raising the cooler lets the chilled water flow into the cuff. It provides cold therapy to the affected area. Lower the cooler to recycle the water. This cycle repeats frequently, ensuring a constant flow of cold water. The knee cuff has two compartments. The integrated pump in the lid circulates air in the outer compartment of the knee cuff. The intermittent air compression with cold water reduces pain and inflammation.

- Just wait five minutes, occasionally shaking the cooler, to chill the water adequately.
Applying the Knee Cryo/Cuff
When you're ready to put on the Cryo Cuff:
- Always start by applying an empty Knee Cryo/Cuff. Please make sure it's an Aircast Cryo Cuff for compatibility.

Filling and Pressurizing the Cryo/Cuff
Now you're almost there! To activate the cuff:
- Connect the blue tube to the Cryo/Cuff and raise the cooler only about 15 inches above the cuff for 30 seconds - that's all it takes to fill.
- When positioning the cooler, ensure it is on a stable surface, and the base is even with the Cryo/Cuff for proper operation.
- To start the Aircast IC cooler, plug the power supply into the wall. Then, connect the other end of the cord to the cooler's lid.
