19 Series Bedding Dump Station
The 19 Series Bedding Dump Station is designed for life science research cage wash operations as a means to accept soiled bedding material that is manually deposited before further processing of cages. Equipped with an integral metering screw feeder to break up clumps of waste bedding, feed, or enrichment, the variable speed drive allows for precise control of material injection into the downstream conveying system. Integral downdraft hoods provide allergen control when used with a vacuum bedding system or separate dust collection system.
