ENV-008-VP
Standard Modular Test Chamber with Value-Pak Top

This unit provides a lower cost alternative to the standard modular test chamber (ENV-008). The difference is that the hinged top of the ENV-008 has been replaced by a solid clear polycarbonate top that is screwed in place. Instead of opening a flap to change components you must now remove the top to change components.

Dimensions:
Base: 21.0" L x 13.75" D x 0.50" H
(53.3 cm x 34.9 cm x 1.3 cm)
Interior: 12.0" L x 9.5" W x 8.25" H
(30.5 cm x 24.1 cm x 21.0 cm)
Exterior: 12.5" L x 10" W x 10.5" H

Drug Administration

Modular Operant Test Chamber with Modified Top

ENV-008CT
Modular Operant Test Chamber
with Modified Top

This chamber is typically used for drug self administration studies. By combining it with an extra tall sound attenuating cubicle, you will be guaranteed sufficient space for a counter balance arm and drug delivery swivel. The top modification consists of a 2.0" (5.1 cm) diameter hole in the center with a 0.25" (0.6 cm) access slot cut from the hole to the front edge. This allows the user to place an animal in the test chamber with a drug delivery leash, or other harness system, attached. This standard height chamber is recommended for most rodent work. Both end walls are identical with three sturdy aluminum channels designed to securely hold any modular component. The unique top design with a clear polycarbonate center and two hinged stainless steel flap makes changing modules quick and easy, while holding them securely in place. This unit includes a door and rear panel of 0.22" (0.6 cm) clear polycarbonate, and a base of white polypropylene.

Dimensions:
Base: 21.0" L x 13.75" D x 0.50" H
(53.3 cm x 34.9 cm x 1.3 cm)
Interior: 12.0" L x 9.5" W x 8.25" H
(30.5 cm x 24.1 cm x 21.0 cm)
Exterior: 12.5" L x 10" W x 10.5" H
(31.8 cm x 25.4 cm x 26.7 cm)
