Description

Summary

This is the only available unit which can be used as a free flow or sealed system.

Our chamber may be used as an open or closed system. If an open system (free flow of air) is desired, align the holes on the top cone with the main clear cylinder. If not, realign the holes to affect the closed system. Once realigned, simply tape the top and the bottom to the main cylinder.

Accommodates mice, rats, gerbils, hamsters, and guinea pig sized animals. This inexpensive containment system is extremely useful for acute or chronic studies.
