Monitor and maintain body temperature
Homeothermic blanket system monitors and maintains body temperature by incorporating a feedback loop to increase output automatically if temperature falls, and vice-versa
The Homeothermic Blanket System will monitor and maintain body temperature for rodents, rabbits, cats and dogs Featuring a feedback loop, the system automatically adjusts to changes in the animal's temperature
The actual body temperature range is from 35-40C.
Flexible or rigid probe systems are available.
Should the animal's core temperature fall, output to the blanket is automatically increased to maintain the temperature at the preset value.
Conversely, the output will decrease should the animal's temperature rise.
The Homeothermic Blanket System includes a control unit, blanket, and rectal probe.
The blanket is available in three sizes.
