Although it was originally designed for home cage infusion of saline, this stand-alone pump may be used for any periodic infusion application. The benefit of using this pump is due to the fact that permanently attached tethers have been found to remain trouble-free for longer periods of time when given periodic infusions with saline in the home cage.
The expanded cycling options of this pump include switches that allow the user to select a cycle time in minutes and hours; a setting of 60 and 10 for example, will produce a ten second infusion at one hour intervals.
