Reduce Labor with Automatic Watering
Animal Care Systems uses the A160 Shielded Drinking Valve for mice and rats with all of its Avidity/Edstrom autowater options. The A160 is designed for use with ventilated caging systems, or any application that requires the drinking valve to be inside the cage. Automated watering has been shown to increase water quality, dramatically reduce labor and prevent the ergonomic risks associated with water bottles. Automated watering also complements the microenvironmental housing concept by eliminating the cage handling required to service water bottles.
Typical products purchased with this valve are:
- Avidity/Edstrom Auto-Water Deprivation Cap: M45055
- Cage Seal for Valves: C45160
