General
Thank you for choosing Sentinel, Powered by Kalogon. To
ensure safe use of the device, it is important that you read
this manual before use. In the manual, the user is the
person sitting on the cushion. The clinician as referred to
throughout these instructions is a suitably experienced
person such as an occupational therapist, physical
therapist, or other medical professional. Information on
how people with impaired vision can access the manual
can be found in our pre-sales information guide at
www.etac.com. Other information can also be found at
www.kalogon.com. Kalogon is continuously improving its
products and reserve the rights to change the product and
associated apps without prior notice.
Product Description
Sentinel, Powered by Kalogon is an air management
system designed as an accessory for vertical air cell
cushions to maintain the air level, which is set by a
clinician to suit the individual's weight, body shape, and
pressure redistribution requirements.
Intended Use
The product is intended to maintain the internal air pressure of a
single-chamber, vertical air cell cushion as set by a suitably
experienced person. It is designed for use in a Home Healthcare
Environment and intended to be used in indoor and outdoor
environments in conjunction with a compatible vertical air cell
cushion in a wheelchair.
Intended User
The product is designed for wheelchair users and others
assessed as requiring a single chambered air cell cushion.
This is typically for individuals who are at risk of pressure
injuries. There is no minimum/maximum user weight limit,
provided the user is within the set weight limit and size
requirements for the connected cushion. The product is
suitable for individuals with existing pressure injuries
when used in accordance with national and international
guidelines, such as the EPUAP/NPIAP Best Practice
Guidelines, and as assessed by experienced professionals.
Limitation of Use
The connected cushion must be properly sized for the
user and their seat. The product is not designed for use in
heavy rain.
Cushion Compatibility Sentinel
Sentinel is compatible with the Star Standard Air and Star
StabilAir cushions. A compatibility agreement exists
between Etac and Kalogon guaranteeing Sentinel be
compatible with certain Star cushions.
Ensure the cushion being used is listed below before
installing Sentinel:
• Etac Star StabilAir

◦ Mid Profile (7.5 cm / 3 in)
• Etac Star Standard Air
◦ High Profile (10 cm / 4 in)
◦ Mid Profile (7.5 cm / 3 in)

Sentinel has been designed for use with most major

compatibility with other brands, contact the cushion
manufacturer for guidance.
Contraindications
While the product can be physically connected and used
with multi-chamber cushions that feature a single locking
mechanism, e.g., Star StarLock, the product is only
compatible with the cushion while the lock is open and,
therefore, is not recommended.
Special Considerations
The assessment for and set up of the product should be
carried out by a clinician, including the appropriate
adjustment of air in the connected cushion to suit the
individual's pressure and postural needs in accordance
with the cushion's user instructions.
Precautions
Make sure to perform routine offload procedures
recommended by clinicians to reduce pressure injury risk.
