CWE Incorporated products

The BP-100 Automated Direct Blood Pressure Monitor by CWE Inc. is a specialized device designed for precise and continuous measurement of blood pressure in research settings, specifically for use with rats. It incorporates standard clinical-type BP transducers, included with the unit, to measure systolic, diastolic, and mean pressures, along with heart rate monitoring. This monitor is equipped with an automated transducer zeroing feature and customizable high and low-pressure alarms for enhanced accuracy and reliability. For data management, it offers a serial data output for remote collection and analog voltage outputs compatible with data acquisition systems. It updates computed measurements every 2.5 seconds, ensuring real-time data accuracy. Additionally, its fast mode enables continuous pressure reading updates, making it versatile as a general-purpose transducer amplifier for recording various physiological signals beyond arterial pressure.

The SAR-1000 Advanced Small Animal Ventilator is specifically designed for the precise and efficient ventilation of small animals such as mice, rats, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Operating on the flow-time principle, it is engineered to deliver a fixed tidal volume on each breath in Volume mode, while in Pressure mode, it halts inflation at a preset airway pressure, enhancing lung inflation and overall ventilation efficiency. The device features a built-in air pump, allowing self-contained operation and includes tubing sets for both mouse and rat sizes. Capable of multi-animal ventilation, it accommodates up to five small animals with External Valve Assemblies, or a single larger animal with a CTP-VA-3 Valve Assembly. With an intuitive interface, it provides control over Tidal Volume, Rate, and I/E Ratio, and supports remote control through USB and SAR-CommVS software, ensuring user-friendly operation and adaptability to specific ventilation requirements.
