Description

The Vapomatic Veterinary Anesthesia Vaporizer from AM Bickford is engineered specifically for veterinary professionals, offering exceptional precision and reliability in anesthetic administration. This agent-specific, temperature-compensated vaporizer excels in low-flow scenarios common in animal health practices, providing consistent vapor output to support safe and effective surgeries. With a dry weight of just 7.5 lbs and a generous 200 ml liquid capacity, it combines portability with ample supply for extended procedures. Standard 23 mm inlet and outlet connections allow easy adaptation between circle and non-rebreathing systems, enhancing flexibility in busy veterinary hospitals.

Safety is paramount, with features like color-coded identification matching anesthetic agents, a tamperproof design to prevent unauthorized adjustments, and an isolated vaporizing chamber that secures in the ‘OFF’ position. Annual calibration is recommended to maintain optimal performance, ensuring long-term dependability in veterinary environments.

Anesthetic Agent Options:  The Sevoflurane model (SKU 20020) is optimized for sevoflurane delivery, ideal for rapid induction and recovery in small animal surgeries. The Isoflurane model provides versatile use with isoflurane, suitable for a wide range of veterinary applications requiring stable, cost-effective anesthesia.

Advantages

Choosing the Vapomatic offers numerous benefits for veterinary practices, including enhanced precision at low flow rates that minimize anesthetic waste and reduce costs. Its lightweight design improves portability, making it easy to move between exam rooms or surgical suites in animal health facilities. The tamperproof construction ensures consistent calibration, promoting patient safety and regulatory compliance. Additionally, the quick-switch connections streamline workflow, allowing veterinarians to adapt systems efficiently during diverse procedures, ultimately supporting better outcomes in animal care.
