Features
The HeartStart FR3 is Philips best professional-grade AED with advanced features for the professional responder. Simply put, the Philips HeartStart FR3 AED makes lifesaving faster, easier, and better.
Built for speed - Reduces deployment time
- The HeartStart FR3 automatically powers on when you open the carry case so you can focus on pad placement. Pre-connected peel and place SMART Pads III, with no foil pouch to open, reduce deployment time.
Small and lightweight - Easy to carry along with other equipment
- As the smallest and lightest professional-grade AED available among leading global manufacturers, the HeartStart FR3 weighs only 3.5lbs. It is designed to be rugged, reliable, and ready to use.
SMART CPR - Patient specific treatment advice
- Receive patient-specific guidance with Philips SMART CPR for the most appropriate initial therapy – CPR or defibrillation – even for shockable rhythms.
Bright display - High resolution LCD screen for clarity
- In severely degraded environmental conditions, voice prompts may not provide enough guidance. The bright, color LCD display of the HeartStart FR3 clearly shows text or text with ECG.
Infant/Child key - Simplify the rescue of a child
- Insert the Infant/Child Key to automatically decrease the defibrillation therapy and implement the configured infant/child CPR protocols.
Data management - Download and forward event data
- Having event data readily available can help facilitate retrospective review by medical directors and program managers. Philips portfolio of data management solutions supports a culture of continuous improvement and excellence.
Quick Shock Feature - Minimize chest compression interruptions
- CPR is even more vital to survival than previously realized. Rapidly delivering a shock after chest compressions is critical. The HeartStart FR3’s Quick Shock feature reduces the time between hands-off and shock delivery.

- Standby life: 3 years minimum when stored under standby environmental conditions (battery installed)
- Shelf life: 5 years
SMART Pads III
- Applications: Disposable, multifunction defibrillation pads for adult or infant/child patients. Time-saving peel and place pads can be removed from packaging and stored in the FR3 carry case. Pads can be pre-connected to FR3, which enables testing during FR3's routine self-test.
Infant/Child Key (optional)
- Function: Selects therapy for infants or children under 55 lbs. (25 kg) or 8 years old
FR3 data card (optional)
