The RWD-68602 Rat Gas Anesthesia Mask Kit is a specialized stereotaxic accessory engineered for precise, safe, and efficient delivery of inhalation anesthesia to rats weighing less than 300g during surgical and neuroscience procedures. This kit is designed to fit most stereotaxic frames, integrating seamlessly with rat adaptors to minimize operator exposure and maximize animal safety during surgery.
Specifications
Frame-Compatible Nosecone Design:
Locks onto the adaptor with the cone opening toward the open “U” of the stereotaxic frame, ensuring a tight seal and optimal gas delivery.
The animal’s teeth are placed over the incisor bar for stable positioning.
Passive Scavenging System:
The 68602 kit includes a “passive” mask with collinear inlet and outlet ports, designed for use with a charcoal canister (included) to safely capture waste anesthetic gases without the need for active suction.
Minimal Exposure:
Delivers anesthetic gases directly to the animal’s nose, significantly reducing operator exposure and environmental contamination during surgery.
Complete Kit:
Supplied with a charcoal canister and tubing for immediate setup and use.
Compatibility:
For use with rats under 300g and compatible with most standard and portable stereotaxic frames.
Variants Available:
“Active” evacuation mask models (e.g., 68666, 68667) are available for use with evacuation apparatus and feature non-collinear inlet/outlet for active scavenging.
