Olfactometer:4-Choice Olfactometer KSB with Clean Air Deliver System and Polyethylene Tube
Detailed specifications and salient characteristics:
4-Choice Olfactometer KSB 12" x 12" x 1", 4-Port/4-Choice Arena Olfactometer w/removable Lid. Main body and all inlet & outlet ports made from solid King Star Board (no phthalates) with a clear Plexiglas removable Lid. System includes an insect inlet adapter (NOTE: Specify insect size at time of order) and (4) all glass, 2-piece combination ¼ in tube adapter and Insect Isolation Traps (IIT) which collect insects responding to an odor source and prevents them from returning into the arena. Unit also includes a 2-CHOICE ADAPTER insert which allows the olfactometer to be converted to a 2-choice system by blocking off half of the arena area. Olfactometer is supported by (4) - 6" removable legs. Includes two all glass inline odor source chambers IOS-4CAO.
Clean Air Deliver System is a 4 Push and 4 Pull Unit - ADS:CADS-4P4P It centralizes the flow meters and moves the gauges and regulators to the sides. The CADS-4P4P contains 4 X 0-2.3 LPM positive pressure flow meters and 3 X 0-2.3 vacuum flow meters and a 7.5 Vacuum Flow Meter (custom choice of flowmeters is available). The CADS-4P4P is intended to expand the capabilities of experiments in both Olfactometry and Volatile Collection. This CADS system can be used for the 4-Choice Arena, True Choice® 2 port and 4 port systems and two 2-Choice Olfactometers. It can also power up to 4 push / pull asymmetrical Volatile Collection experiments in closed systems. The venturi vacuum pump provides even flow to all vacuum ports. Compressed air from an air compressor or lab supplied air is required.
ACCESSORY: Polyethylene Tube 1/4" Polyethylene Tubing (0.25” or 6.35 mm) is used for the clean air and vacuum side of our systems. The “Standard State” air coming out of the CADS units will not contaminate the tubing. Teflon is the preferred tubing to be used between external odor source chambers and the Olfactometer.
