Plethysmometer (Paw Volume) Meter

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes the IITC Paw Volume Meter, a device used by researchers to measure the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory agents and to reduce edemic conditions in test subjects.
Specifications: The device measures pressure changes in a water cell when a paw is inserted, calibrated in milliliters, and displayed on an electronic monitor in 0.1 ml increments. It operates on a battery or a line adapter at 9 or 12 V.
Features: Key features include no need for a wetting solution, annual calibration, battery operation, and obstruction-free viewing of the test subject. The device is stable and easy to operate.
Design: The unit includes an angled acrylic stand for easy viewing and a separate stand for the water cell. It allows for free access to the cell without obstruction.
Warranty and Compliance: The device comes with a one-year warranty and is compliant with CE standards, operating at 120/240V.

Plethysmometer (Paw Volume) Meter-1

BLOOD PRESSURE RESTRAINERS CATHETERS ANALGESIA BEHAVIORAL/ACTIVITY ANIMAL RESPIRATORS SYRINGE PUMPS TEMPERATURE PROBES Plethysmometer (Paw Volume) Meter IITC's Paw Volume Meter enables researchers to measure the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory agents and agents to reduce edemic conditions. In use, the paw is inserted into plain water, which contains a special water cell of which the pressure is changed due to the immersion. This pressure change is calibrated in ml and shown on a special electronic monitor. This form of detection eliminates changes due to conductivity alterations at repeated insertions (like found on comparable units.) The measurements are shown on the units LCD readout in .1ml increments. The unit is stable and can be safely operated either on its own battery or on a line adapter at 9 or 12 V. An angled acrylic stand serves to keep the instrument in position for easy viewing. The water cell is attached to an acrylic stand of its own. The fact that there is no "wetting solution" required is a first for this type of unit. The unit also allows for obstruction free viewing of the test subject with free access to the cell. One year warranty 120/240V CE Features No wetting solution needed One calibration/yr. Battery operated IITC Inc.
