Description
The Amparo Passive Vacuum System is a compact distal valve designed to provide secure suspension, comfort and reliable socket fit for lower-limb prosthetic users.
Its one-way valve design allows air to escape from the socket during donning and movement, helping create a passive vacuum that keeps the residual limb securely positioned within the prosthesis. This snug and consistent fit can help reduce unwanted movement within the socket while avoiding excessive localised pressure.
Designed for use together with a prosthetic liner and sealing sleeve, the Passive Vacuum System provides a simple and dependable suspension solution without the complexity of an active vacuum pump.
