Q: What connector or elbow is needed for the ResMed Mirage FX mask?

The ResMed Mirage FX mask uses an elbow assembly as a connector between the mask and the breathing circuit. This is a movable part that attaches directly to the mask via side attachment tabs. The reference elbow assembly 62114 is compatible with all variants of the Mirage FX (standard, Wide, and for Her). This swivel elbow allows you to orient the circuit according to your comfort preferences and facilitates the positioning of the mask. Before putting on your mask, you must first detach the elbow by pressing on the side attachment tabs, then connect it to the breathing circuit of your device (tube from the ventilator). Once the circuit is connected to the elbow, you can attach the elbow+circuit assembly to the mask by pushing firmly until you achieve a secure click. The elbow must remain securely attached throughout the duration of mask wear to ensure proper sealing and maintain a stable airflow supply. If you find that the elbow does not hold well, that the circuit ejects, or that there are leaks around the attachment point, first check that the side tabs are properly clicked onto the mask. If your elbow is damaged, cracked, or no longer seals properly, you need to replace it. The ResMed reference 62114 is available from your ResMed dealer or medical distributor. It is a standard spare part provided as a replacement for all owners of the Mirage FX mask.
