Heated Fixed Temperature Operating Tables

Heated Fixed Temperature Operating Tables (size 1 for mouse and size 5 for rodent) are available with heating power supply or heating controller, choice of tripod stand or flat-angled mounting base.

• For general surgical work on small animals (mouse, rat, and guinea pig)
• Choice of:
  • Tripod stand or flat-angled mounting base
  • Heating controller or heating power supply (includes adapter box)
  • Size 1 for mouse or Size 5  for rodent
• Capable of receiving thorax retractors and mounting ball joint holders
• Includes 4 paw holders

The core components consist of a plate and mounting base. Both sides of the plate have multiple slots for fixing the spring-loaded paw clamps and optional thorax retractors. Numerous slots allow both large and small animals to be held firmly in position for optimal surgical access. A block clamp with ball joint holder can be fixed onto the plate for holding various probes, electrodes, or cannulae. A 4-mm banana plug outlet is available when grounding the table is required, (e.g. for ECG recordings).

Choice of mounting base stands. The traditional tripod base mounted on a ball joint allows the table to tilt in multiple directions. The flat-angled base offers a lower profile requiring less working height.

These models are often used for quick surgical procedures or acute animal studies (30 minutes or less) that require maintenance of the animal’s core.

The table is heated and maintained at a stable temperature by controlling the amount of DC-energy to the heating element. On the controller, the energy is adjustable in a range of 20 to 100% of the maximum energy. The controller also ensures the safety shutoff. To adjust the controller, an electronic thermometer for measuring the animal body is used.
