R550 Multi-output Anesthesia Machine
(RWD)
Description
The R550 Multi-output Anesthesia Machine is the most advanced system of RWD and offers highly efficient, precise gas flow that is easy to use. It is designed for safe, simple, and controllable inhalation anesthesia for rat, mouse, rabbit, hamster and Guinea pig, it can be applies to simultaneous anesthesia animals (1-5 small animals), and every channel can be controlled independently.
- Accommodates animals ranging in size from neonate mice to rabbits.
- Six outputs supply anesthesia to the induction chamber and up to five masks.
- Incorporates two flowmeters: one controls the vaporizer (0-4000 cc/min) and the other one controls the induction chamber (0-2500 cc/min).
- Allows investigator flexibility in designing protocols without calculations.
- Each output (mask) is individually controlled with simple ON/OFF toggle switch.
- Pushbutton oxygen flush purges induction chamber before removing animals.
- Carry handle facilitates safe, easy transport of the unit.
- Available in both table top and wall mount, and optional post mount with 5-leg spider base.
Features:
- Multi-channel design can meet the needs of multiple animals (1-5 small animals) simultaneously
- Accurate oxygen flow meter, Flow control range: 0-4 L/min available
- High accuracy vaporizer (Each one has an independent test report)
- Gas toggle switch, button switching gas path, more than 100,000 times of service life.
- Quick oxygenation switch to remove residual anesthetic mixture in the tube or anesthesia induction chamber.
- Oxygen or air can be chosen as gas supply.
- Easy Fill, Pour Fill, Key Fill for adding drugs is optional.
- Can be upgraded into portable anesthesia machine to save space and facilitate movement
- Gas flow of induction chamber can be adjusted independently, ranging from 0 to 2.5 L/min
- Toggle switch, quick switching of gas circuit, 100 thousand times of life

About RWD Anesthesia
RWD Life Science has been always dedicated to study and provide perfect and competitive inhalation anesthesia systems that have great practical value to the life science research community. Multiple complete solutions to different procedures in mice, rats, rabbits, cats, dogs, monkey, pig etc. have been set up, which has remarkable and even exclusive advantages over existing system, for example:
- Precise and stable control of anesthetic agents output regardless of environmental changes like pressure, temperature and air flow within the specific limits.
- The miniaturized design like anesthesia machines and scavenging system helps to improve laboratory space utilization.
- Unique Stereotaxic Frame Nosecone Masks and Cone Masks with tiny sizes satisfy more delicate surgeries like craniocerebral and ophthalmological surgery, and at the same time minimize harmful exposure to the research subjects while connecting to evacuation system.
- The latest-designed waste gas evacuation system with weighing (Cat No.R546W) brings research subjects great convenience.
- Higher performance to price ratio helps research subjects to reduce their expense while maintaining successful research.
- High adsorption efficiency of activated charcoal filter canister (Cat No.R510-31 & R510-31S).
Advantages of Inhalation Anesthesia:
- Can offer an improved level of control over depth and duration of anesthesia, especially for prolonged procedures.
- To be relatively insoluble and faster elimination in blood enables rapid recovery.
- Be of rapid onset and offset with minimal side effects.
- Have little or no toxic effects thanks to non-metabolism characteristic of Sevoflurane and Isoflurane.
- Be more safer and efficient performance to reduce morbidity rates and increase the chance for successful outcomes.
