High density fiberboard for superior acoustic insulation. Available standalone or as part of an Easy-Install assembly. Includes cable entry panel and ventilation fan. Custom sizes available.
Designed in consultation with the Institute of Sound and Vibration University of Derby England, this Environment Cabinet has an inner dimension of 544W x 410D x 603H mm and provides a controlled environment for sound and light.
Cabinets are coated to resist corrosion and are fitted with a panel mounted ventilation fan and air inlet with cable entry points. Custom sizes are also available with a design charge. Ergonomically designed for ease of animal handling and welfare with a ventilation fan and optional rolling shelf, these cabinets can be configured with a house light, speaker, and camera observation/recording system that uses visual or IR illumination. Single handle doors ease working procedure.
Cable Gland - Inner and Outer
Audible transmission measurements were performed on sound pressure z-scale. Attenuation level ensures that sound between cabinets is attenuated to around 35 dB which approximates to the background noise in a quiet room. Door air-seal facilitates consistent acoustic performance. Additional baffles can add 5-10 dB of further attenuation and also eliminate light ingress at the ventilation apertures. Cable Glands maintain the acoustic seal, fit various sizes of cable and can be positioned where required. These can be easily dissembled to pass through connectors and then clamp cables securely. All sound attenuation levels are frequency dependent.
White LED House Light and Speaker: The LED provides a more concentrated area of illumination than a standard tungsten bulb and has a nanosecond illumination time.
Environmental Cabinets can be fitted with a camera for either visible or IR light. The camera image can be viewed on screen directly or quad DVR suitable for Windows™ files
Rolling Shelf: Simplifies animal handling - especially useful for tethered animals.
Dual inflow and exhaust ventilation fan arrangement option available.
Faraday Cage: A metallized lining with EMC gasketed door will attenuate external sources of electromagnetic interference to provide a clean electromagnetic environment for physiological recordings.

Cabinet Stacking Fixtures
Easy-install Rack System (for multiple cabinets): The density of sound attenuating materials means that each cabinet can weigh approximately 33 to 40 kg. Cabinets feature structural strength and fixtures to accommodate vertical stacking Mounting these on a moveable rack with braked wheels gives many benefits such as easy handling, laboratory cleanliness, and safety. All cables are installed in trunking and a top shelf includes a central power distribution point and earth bonding. If taller cabinets are required for special designs, or if space is required between the upper and lower cabinets, a further wall-fixture option is also available.
