ALPS Valve Integrated Pump ALPS Valve Integrated Pump (VIP) is just what you need for elevated vacuum systems. Designed with the practitioner in mind, the VIP is easy to install and easy to use. Once the amputee dons the prosthesis and places a seal sleeve over the socket, the pump is activated from the user’s weight during heel strike, and draws elevated vacuum after toe-off during swing phase. Engineered out of a medical-grade silicone and two valves to control the airflow, the VIP is available with two different levels of vacuum to accommodate most users’ activity levels and skin types.
