Description
Quick answer: This is the genuine ResMed non-vented elbow (part 60678, 1-pack) for the Ultra Mirage NV full face mask — a ventilator mask part, not a CPAP part. The elbow is tinted blue to identify it as non-vented (no vent holes), for use with active-exhaust non-invasive ventilator systems only. It provides the 360° rotating tube connection to the mask. Because it’s non-vented, the ventilator circuit must supply the exhalation path (a leak valve/port) for CO₂ washout. It is not for CPAP/PAP therapy.
⚠️ Important — non-vented ventilator part (not for CPAP)
- Non-vented (blue elbow) — no vent holes; for active-exhaust NIV ventilator systems only. The circuit’s exhalation valve/port provides CO₂ washout, not the mask.
- Not for CPAP/PAP therapy. Don’t fit a non-vented part to a standard CPAP without a proper exhalation path — that risks rebreathing exhaled CO₂.
- Clinician-directed — the ventilation setup and exhalation device are determined by the clinical team.

What’s included

Mask, frame, cushion, headgear, and elbow retainer (60683) not included.
About this part
The elbow is where the ventilator tubing connects to the mask. On the Ultra Mirage NV full face (non-vented) mask, this part:
- Connects the circuit to the mask — with 360° rotation for stability and freedom of movement, and a standard 22 mm ventilator fitting.
- Is non-vented (blue) — ResMed tints NV elbows blue so they’re clearly identified as non-vented, for active-exhaust NIV systems only.
- Restores a worn/cracked elbow — replace it without buying a whole new mask.
Compatibility: the ResMed Ultra Mirage NV full face mask. Note this is the NV full face elbow (60678); the NV nasal mask uses a different elbow assembly (60916). Don’t confuse the non-vented (blue) elbow with the vented CPAP Ultra Mirage full face elbow (a different part).
Related: the elbow retainer (60683) holds the elbow in the frame — order separately if needed.
