Product Introduction

The cage changing station is sized for opening and transferring between two animal cages on one broad stainless surface. Filtered downflow protects the work area while front and rear grilles capture dander, bedding dust and aerosols generated during handling. Open ends or a low-profile sash keep cages accessible, and a mobile lift base can adjust the working height for different users. The airflow arrangement is selected for animal, operator and room protection needs.

Key Features

A wide uninterrupted work surface holds source and clean cages side by side.

Front and rear capture grilles collect bedding dust near the handling plane.

Filtered downflow reduces cross-contamination across the open work area.

Rounded edges and removable grille sections support daily sanitation.

A mobile electric-height base can accommodate seated or standing work.

Customer Product Concerns

Cage changing produces dander and bedding dust while requiring wide access for two bulky enclosures and careful animal handling.

Two cages crowd a standard laboratory cabinet.The broad work surface is sized for side-by-side cage placement.

Bedding dust reaches the operator during transfer.Front and rear grilles capture particles at the work-surface boundary.

Fixed bench height causes awkward repetitive posture.An optional electric lift base adjusts the station to the operator and cage type.

Loose bedding collects inside narrow grille slots.Removable perforated sections expose the stainless collection channels.
