Optiboost Fan System
You’ve Doubled Your Density by using ACS Racks, but now your HVAC is at Capacity!
When rodent housing rooms are designed for rectangular, library style racks, the room exhaust is typically sized for the much lower number of rodent cages within the room. This can mean that once the Opti racks are in place, and your density has pretty much doubled, you may require more exhaust.
Recommendations: Each Optiboost fan can exhaust one Opti rack.
The quiet, dependable Animal Care Systems, Inc. Optiboost fan is useful in situations when increases to the housing room density using the high density Optirack system exceed a room’s library style exhaust capacity. It can also be used to boost exhaust airflow for older HVAC systems. Optiboost can be mounted to the wall or ceiling or can be placed atop an Opti rack.
In some case, some rooms do not have building exhaust, such as animal rooms that used to be storage rooms (it happens a lot!) and the Optiboost fan can be used there too.
The Optiboost fan is available with a HEPA filter and carbon filter.
