Nose Cone Mask
Orchid’s nose cone masks are designed with a feature of half spherical design so that the bottom of the mask is flat and can be matched with lowest level when connected with the heating blanket or surgery platform. Mask provides predictable delivery of anesthesia for small laboratory animals. The stream lined flow eliminates any dead space in the mask, avoiding the need for tight fitting face masks.
Orchid’s nose cone mask is made from transparent polycarbonate material with openings from soft black silicone material making it comfortable for animal. Each mask has inlet for delivery of anesthetic agent and outlet for connecting to Gas Evacuation System so that exposure of anesthetic agent to the researchers will be avoided. Single channel stand is also available for holding the mask of any of the size and to adjust the position of the mask as needed.
