anesthesia guideHow to Select Anesthesia Equipment (continued)Classic T3VaporizersPY2 60-5244 Manifoldwith 8 PortsVaporizer Selection GuideVaporizers are designed to work with a specific anesthetic agent. Selectthe vaporizer based on the agent you will be using in your laboratory.We offer vaporizers for Isoflurane and Sevoflurane, see page F36 forcomplete product offering. Please note that vaporizer endcaps are includedwith the anesthesia machine NOT the vaporizer. Therefore, if you areordering a vaporizer ONLY you will need to order endcaps separately(1 x PY2 72-3043 and 1 x PY2 72-3044).SpecificationsInlet FlowCompensationTemperature RangeCompensationCalibrationAccuracyDuration of UseLiquid CapacityDimensions (H x W x D):Funnel FillKey FillWeight:Funnel FillKey FillT350 mls to 10 liters/min with minimal changein output concentration59ºF to 95ºF (15ºC to 35ºC)69.8ºF (21ºC)± 15% (within above flow and temperature range)approximately 1.0 ml of liquid anesthetic is requiredto provide 200 ml of vapor125 ml liquid capacity, with 35 mls absorbed by wick7.25 in x 5 in x 5.5 in7.25 in x 5 in x 6 in16 lbs (7.27 kg)16 lbs (7.27 kg)Why Use an Anesthetic Manifold?Manifolds allow the use of both an anesthetizing box and a mask. Itpermits the research to direct the flow of gas to where they need it. Theanesthetizing box can be used to initially anesthetize the animal and thenthe mask can maintain the anesthetized state during procedures. One sideof the manifold directs the fresh gas to the animal, while the other directsthe waste gas collection.Harvard Apparatus does not suggest using manifolds to anesthetizemultiple animals simultaneously. PLEASE NOTE, with a manifold, theamount of agent flowing into each port cannot be controlled – forindividual control to multiple animals, see the Multi-Station ResearchSystem on page F33 of this catalog.Order # ProductPY2 60-5242 4 Port Manifold – connects to 2 Anesthetic devicesPY2 60-5243 6 Port Manifold – connects to 3 Anesthetic devicesPY2 60-5244 8 Port Manifold – connects to 4 Anesthetic devicesanesthesia guide RespirationOrder #PY2 72-8132PY2 72-7995PY2 72-7997PY2 72-7996ProductT3 Isoflurane Funnel-Fill Vaporizer*T3 Sevoflurane Funnel-Fill Vaporizer*T3 Isoflurane Key-Fill Vaporizer*T3 Sevoflurane Key-Fill Vaporizer*Harvard Apparatus • phone 508.893.8999 • toll free U.S. 800.272.2775 • fax 508.429.5732 • www.harvardapparatus.comF27
