ResMed AirSense 11 / AirCurve 11 DC/DC Converter (12V/24V)

The genuine ResMed AirSense 11 DC/DC Converter (Air11, part 39231) powers your AirSense 11 or AirCurve 11 from a 12V or 24V DC source — cars, RVs, boats, caravans, and CPAP batteries. Full humidifier and heated-tube support.

The genuine ResMed AirSense 11 DC/DC Converter (Air11 — part 39231) powers your AirSense 11 or AirCurve 11 from a 12V or 24V DC source — cars, RVs, boats, caravans, and 12V/24V CPAP batteries. Plugs into a standard vehicle accessory socket (cigarette lighter), or connects directly to a compatible battery, and delivers clean regulated 24V power to your machine without dropping humidifier or heated-tube support. Genuine ResMed accessory — built for road trips, camping, off-grid stays, and home power-outage backup.

Key Features

  • 12V or 24V DC input: Works with standard vehicle accessory sockets (cigarette lighter) in cars, trucks, RVs, caravans, and boats, plus 12V or 24V CPAP batteries.
  • Regulated 24V output: Delivers the clean, stable power the AirSense 11 needs — protecting the machine's sensitive electronics from voltage fluctuations.
  • Full humidifier & heated-tube support: Powers the device, HumidAir humidifier, and ClimateLineAir heated tube simultaneously — no need to disable humidification on the road.
  • 2.4 m total cable length: 0.6 m vehicle-side input cable + 1.8 m DC output cable to the machine — plenty of reach in most setups.
  • Compact and travel-friendly: Fits easily into a travel bag, RV storage, or CPAP travel case.
  • Genuine ResMed: Manufacturer-specified part 39231 — designed and tested by ResMed for the AirSense 11 platform.

How a DC/DC Converter Works (and Why It's Better Than an Inverter)

A DC/DC converter takes the 12V or 24V DC power from a battery or vehicle socket and converts it directly to the regulated 24V DC your CPAP machine requires. This is significantly more efficient than the alternative approach — using a 12V-to-240V inverter, then plugging your normal CPAP power supply into that — because each conversion step wastes energy as heat. With a DC/DC converter, you skip the wasteful AC step entirely. The result: longer battery run-time, less power drain on your vehicle, and quieter operation.

Compatibility

For use with the ResMed 11-series platform:

  • AirSense 11 series: AirSense 11 AutoSet and AirSense 11 CPAP variants
  • AirCurve 11 series: all AirCurve 11 BiLevel variants
AirSense 10 or AirSense 11? Make sure you have the right converter. This converter is not compatible with the AirSense 10, AirCurve 10, AirStart 10, or S9 — those older ResMed machines use the AirSense 10 / Lumis 12V DC Converter (part 37506) instead. The two converters use different machine-side plugs and aren't interchangeable. Check the model name printed on your device — "AirSense 11" or "AirCurve 11" means this is the right part; anything else means you need the older-machine version.

Common Use Cases

The DC/DC converter solves CPAP power in three common scenarios:

  • Car, RV, caravan, or boat: Plug straight into the 12V or 24V vehicle accessory socket while you sleep. Modern vehicles' aux sockets are usually 12V; trucks and some marine setups are 24V — the converter handles both.
  • Off-grid camping with a CPAP battery: Pair the converter with a Medistrom Pilot-24 Lite (using the AirSense 11 cable kit) or the dual-voltage Medistrom Pilot FLEX for nights without mains power.
  • Home backup during outages: Keep the converter and a charged battery in your bedside drawer — if mains power fails overnight, switch over without losing therapy.

What's in the Box
