Autoclavable isolation Units (FIC)

FIC 30-4
Autoclavable for Complete Sterilization
FIC units protect your animals and personnel from cross-contamination. They are ideal for both acute and chronic holding of animals.
Units are quiet, warm, and soft to the touch of the animal. The problem of hypothermia is eliminated.
These autoclavable isolation cubicles are matched die molded of hi-tech thermoset plastic. Each cubicle is easily removable from its support frame for sterilization. Polycarbonate doors have slip-a-part hinges making sterilization easy.
All hardware is stainless steel and adjustable to compensate for wear. Casters are non-scuffing with locks, brakes, and zerk fittings. Support frame is stainless steel.
Each compartment includes its own blower, on/off switch and standard glass media filtration package. 120 volts 60 Hz, components are U.L./C.S.A. approved. 220 volt units are available. Standard filtration system has 5u efficiency.
These Isolation Units are ideal for the Research Facility where space is at a premium. Multiple species can be housed in the same room.
Because each cubicle has its own 5u glass media filtration system, internal atmosphere can be exhausted through your house air removal system.
