Philips offers two genuinely distinct HeartStart models within its range - here is an honest comparison of the FRx and OnSite to help you choose which fits your specific environment.
Philips HeartStart FRx: Built for Rugged Conditions
As covered in our Philips brand overview, the FRx is specifically dust and water resistant, suiting outdoor, industrial or less controlled environments.
Philips HeartStart OnSite: Built for Everyday Indoor Use
The OnSite targets typical office, school and public building settings where extreme environmental exposure isn't a genuine concern.
Shared Philips Voice Guidance Across Both Models
Both devices carry Philips' familiar, calm voice prompts, meaning the core rescue experience is consistent regardless of which model you choose.
Matching the Model to Your Site
Choose the FRx for warehouses, construction sites or outdoor venues, and the OnSite for offices, schools and typical indoor public spaces.
