Operator Comfort: SmarTop, one word three benefits:

  • Ergonomics: EMERAT’s SmarTop provides the best ergonomic solution for operators, simplifying access to animals, by allowing the cage top to be vertically positioned on the base.
  • Standardisation: Lift the SmarTop and place it on the base: a simple motion allowing operators to perform easy, reproducible and standardised procedures during the cage change.
  • Biosecurity: The SmarTop assists with best aseptic practice, with any potential cross-contamination minimised. 

The lightest IVC rat cage of this size:

The new cage design features moulded cage runners with built-in handles, allowing greater ergonomics when transfering the cage on and off the rack. The positioning of the hopper means the cover of the lid can act as a a guide to direct the diet in to the hopper providing a simplistic refill, even when the cage is docked on the rack.

Animal Welfare: A Rat Suite

The EMERAT allows the cage occupants to express natural behaviour patterns whilst promoting positive behavioural traits, such as bi-pedal posture.

The internal cage volume is fully accessible to animals, this is due to the absence of a stainless steel lid. Additionally, thanks to the dual use of the feeder, the solid lid works as a mezzanine where animals can explore, providing an enriched and complex environment for the expression of their natural behaviour.

Visibility: Vision+

The latch-free innovative design guarantees unrivalled visibility, providing a clear, unrestricted view allowing daily health and welfare checks to be carried out easily. The Tecniplast PATENTED cage sealing design combined with the in-bedded locking system guarantees the optimal protection for both animals and operators.

Versatility

  • New Rack Features: The Self-Locking Cage allows the operator to remove the cage ‘on the rack’ where it remains securely locked in position. This feature allows direct access to the cage occupants.
  • Choice in the positioning of the feeder: The feeder can be positioned either in the rear part of the cage base or the front, depending on operator preference.

All in one rack: ERGO and HD

  • ERGO Rack - 5 Rows: Whether it’s positioned at the top or at the bottom, it allows operators to easily access all cages in any position comfortably.
  • HR Rack - 6 Rows: If space is a premium, the HD Rack optimises space reduces and is the perfect solution to increase the cage density and save space in vivariums.
