Small and Medium Animal Research Ventilators
Small and medium animal research ventilator family for volume-controlled ventilation in mice, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, and related anesthesia or respiratory-support workflows, with 1-channel and 2-channel 0.1-10 mL or 10-100 mL configurations plus a veterinary 10-1500 mL anesthesia ventilator path.

Overview
The Small and Medium Animal Research Ventilators page gives research and veterinary labs a focused selection surface for volume-controlled ventilation. The family covers 1-channel and 2-channel small-animal ventilators, low-volume 0.1-10 mL configurations, higher-volume 10-100 mL configurations, and a veterinary anesthesia ventilator path for 10-1500 mL tidal-volume planning.
For rodent and small-animal work, the important purchasing decision is how the ventilator range fits the animal size, procedure duration, channel count, anesthesia machine, gas source, airway interface, and monitoring workflow. The small-animal configurations support 1-200 BPM respiration-rate planning, adjustable I:E ratio from 1:5 to 5:1, and pressure-release protection around the 6 kPa limit.
The ventilator can be run with air or oxygen and can also be planned with an anesthesia machine when the lab needs ventilator-assisted anesthesia rather than mask maintenance alone. A 2-channel configuration is useful when the station must support two ventilation paths or when a lab wants to stage a higher-throughput setup around the same equipment family.
Scientific Use
Use this page for ventilator-assisted rodent surgery, respiratory physiology, thoracic or cardiac model preparation, endotracheal intubation support, anesthesia ventilation, and medium-animal respiratory-support planning. Pair the ventilator with tracheal cannulas or endotracheal tubes, breathing circuits, gas source, anesthesia delivery, absorber or scavenging path, warming, and monitoring.
Buying Fit
Choose a low-volume configuration for mouse and rat respiratory-support workflows that need fine tidal-volume control. Choose a higher-volume or veterinary configuration when rabbits, cats, larger animals, or broader veterinary anesthesia workflows are part of the station plan. ConductScience can help match the ventilator with the airway interface and anesthesia accessories needed for the final setup.

Practical Tips
Choose the ventilator by tidal-volume range first, then channel count and gas-path requirements.
Why: Animal size and airway strategy determine whether a low-volume, high-volume, or veterinary ventilator path fits the station.
Match the ventilator with tracheal cannulas, endotracheal tubes, or mask workflows before ordering accessories.
Why: The ventilator provides respiratory support; the airway interface determines how that support reaches the animal.
Review anesthesia delivery, absorber or scavenging path, warming, and monitoring as one station plan.
Why: Ventilator-assisted anesthesia works best when gas delivery, respiratory support, and animal support are planned together.

Compliance
Which tidal-volume ranges are available?
Small-animal configurations cover 0.1-10 mL and 10-100 mL tidal-volume ranges. The veterinary anesthesia ventilator path covers 10-1500 mL planning.
When should I choose a 2-channel ventilator?
Choose a 2-channel configuration when the station needs two ventilation paths, higher workflow throughput, or a setup that can support two controlled ventilation lines from the same product family.
Can this be used with an anesthesia machine?
Yes. The ventilator family can be planned with air, oxygen, or anesthetic gas, and can be configured around an anesthesia machine, breathing circuit, and airway interface.
What airway products should be planned with it?
Plan tracheal cannulas or endotracheal tubes for intubated or tracheal access, or use compatible masks when the workflow is non-intubated inhalation maintenance.
What support equipment should be considered?
Review gas source, anesthesia delivery, absorber or active scavenging, warming, monitoring, and procedure-specific surgical support with the final ventilator setup.
