Rodent Ventilator Complete with 5ml Cylinder with AUTO Start/Stop

Background

• Assists or stimulates respiration in a subject which is not breathing or is unable to make sufficient respiratory effort on its own.
• Mechanical ventilation is a method to assist or replace spontaneous breathing.
• For use with small animals including guinea pigs, rats, mice and small birds.

 Highly accurate, quiet, low maintenance, long life span

• Highly accurate and reliable stroke rate for providing consistent volumes. Uses a variable speed geared motor (with no backlash) linked by a novel variable stroke mechanism. Volume is adjustable whether the pump is running or stationary. 
• Stroke rate (per minute) is indicated on the 3-digit LED display. 
• Caters for different sized animals with easily interchangeable 5ml, 10ml or 30ml cylinder/piston assembly. 
• Flexibility in air channeling with four ports (Intake, To Animal, From Animal and Exhaust). Input can be room air or any other non-explosive gas mixture. Exhaust air may be partially or totally recycled or collected for analysis. 
• Quiet operation. High quality and robust. Low sliding friction for practically no wear or tear for a long lifetime. 
• Operation may be "paused" by an external TTL logic signal, such as a digital output from a data acquisition or imaging system.
• Select Start/Stop Model for advanced electrophysiological-pharmacological investigations.
• Product review: “We have four of your respirators in our extended lab and they are wonderful – as is your service” Dr. Nicholas Price, Monash University, Australia

Artificial ventilation, also called artificial respiration is any means of assisting or stimulating respiration in a subject which is not breathing or is not making sufficient respiratory effort on its own.
Mechanical ventilation is a method to mechanically assist or replace spontaneous breathing: this involves a machine called a ventilator.
