About PureWick Portable Collection System Replacement Power Adapter
The PureWick Portable Collection System Replacement Power Adapter is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) power supply for the PureWick Portable Collection unit. If the original power adapter is lost, damaged, or no longer functioning, this replacement restores full power to the collection system so it can maintain the gentle suction required to draw urine away from the patient's skin and into the collection canister. Using the correct OEM adapter ensures the unit receives the proper voltage and current for safe, consistent operation — using non-compatible adapters can result in reduced suction performance, overheating, or potential safety hazards. The adapter is designed to plug into a standard AC wall outlet and is compatible with the PureWick Portable Collection System.

PureWick Portable Collection System Replacement Power Adapter FAQs
Which PureWick unit is this adapter compatible with?
This power adapter is compatible with the PureWick Portable Collection System (PWFCU050-P). Confirm your unit's model number before ordering to ensure compatibility.
Can I use a third-party or universal power adapter instead?
It is strongly recommended to use only the OEM power adapter with the PureWick system. Third-party adapters with incorrect voltage or current ratings can damage the unit, reduce suction performance, and potentially create a safety hazard.
What voltage does this adapter output?
Refer to the label on the adapter itself for exact voltage and current specifications. Using the OEM adapter ensures these specifications match the PureWick unit's requirements.
Is the adapter covered under the PureWick system warranty?
Warranty coverage for accessories varies. Contact C.R. Bard or your DME supplier for information on warranty coverage for replacement power adapters.
How do I know if my power adapter is the issue if the unit is not working?
If the PureWick unit is not turning on or has inconsistent suction, first ensure the adapter is fully plugged into both the unit and the wall outlet. Try a different outlet. If the unit still does not function, the adapter may need to be replaced — contact your supplier or the manufacturer.
