Details

Lafayette Instrument Company's newest edition to the operant conditioning test chambers boasts features not found in other chambers, yet is fully compatible with all 3 inch wide modular panels available from other manufacturers. A shockable stainless steel grid rod floor comes standard with this unit. An optional (and less expensive) perforated stainless steel non-shock floor is available upon request. See Model 80004NS in the RELATED PRODUCTS for details.

Note: Model 80004 is for the chamber and grid floor only. It does not include the chamber accessories shown in the photo, a control, or a power supply. These items should be ordered separately as needed. We would be happy to assist with the design of a complete test system.
