HDM Z1 CPAP is discontinued. The newer version is HDM Z2 CPAP .
Small, Lightweight Travel CPAP Device
HDM’s Z1 is one of the smallest and lightest sleep apnea therapy devices on the market. The Z1 weighs just 10 ounces and fits comfortably in the palm of your hand! An extremely quiet device, this CPAP machine is the ideal travel companion for any sleep apnea user. Plug it in at night, or use batteries for ultimate convenience.
Travel in Comfort
The ultra lightweight and travel-friendly HDM Z1 CPAP device will fit into any suitcase, purse, or traveling case. You'll never have to worry about lugging this device on your travels, and the rechargeable battery ensures that you can use it anytime, anywhere.
Heat Moisture Exchanger
Tired of dragging clunky humidifiers on the road with you? You won't need to worry about one with the HDM Z1 CPAP. The device comes with an external Heat Moisture Exchanger, which will provide you with all the moisture you need throughout the night. The system works by returning the exhaled heat and moisture back to the user, allowing you to breathe warmed air. No water is needed. Sleep better and wake up without congestion or dry throat without the weight of a water-based humidifier.
Pressure Relief
Using Z-Breathe technology, the Z1 has the ability to automatically reduce pressure during use in order to improve the comfort of your CPAP therapy. Like other CPAP machines in its class, Z-Breathe will reduce pressure while you are breathing out and return to normal when you breathe in, resulting in a normalized breathing pattern. This technology improves comfort while using your Z1 CPAP machine. There are two different settings available for Z-Breathe. Setting one will reduce pressure gradually after a few cycles, while setting two will aggressively respond to your breathing patterns. Choose the setting that you find most comfortable!
Easy to Use
HDM's Z1 is as intuitive of a CPAP machine as you'll find. Its backlit screen allows you to adjust your settings at any time of day, and the machine's big numbers and intuitive setup will make getting your machine working a snap.
Adjust the Air Pressure
The Z1 comes with an adjustable air pressure monitor, allowing you to select the right air pressure for you and your mask.

Tips from HDM:
How to reduce noise from Z1
Some people report that the Z1 is noisier than their bedside CPAP. This is due to hearing 2 different noises due to the size of the motor.
The first noise is described as a wind or whistling noise in the mask. The most likely reason for this sound is that the air is circulating up from a small motor through a narrow tube to the mask, causing it to swirl. This is more noticeable with certain types of masks. To reduce this noise, start with a longer standard hose and insert the HME close to the mask. If this is not enough, add the Qtube in line muffler. This is added closest to the CPAP machine and straightens out the path of the air to reduce the wind noise.
The second noise that people describe is a motor chirping noise from the small motor slowing down and speeding up with inhalation and exhalation of breath. This noise can be reduced by upgrading the firmware to version 2.0.1.5 and then using Z Breathe 2. The upgrade can be found at this link https://hdmusa.com/support/user-guides-and-software/ under the Software and Firmware tab. This firmware works on all Z1 Autos and the Z1 CPAPs that were manufactured after May 2015. You can find the manufacture date on the back of the machine under the serial number.

RX Required
Do you have repair service or can you suggest a company able to service my unit? I appreciate your response.
If there is a high leak it may be automatically turning off due to the leakage.
Swapping out my used mask for a fresh one helped also. I use it every night and with the battery pack I will use it for travel. I like that I can change the pressure level myself. I am delighted with my purchase!
Very satisfied with the product and the purchase.
Only a little louder than my Breas iSleep 20i.
Thankfully you guys added it and now I have my perfect travel machine :)
Awesome job, great machine, been waiting for it and now that I have it I am completely satisfied, as small as advertised and works great too.
All in all is recommendable for travelling.
