TBJ BSS-1DD Downdraft Bedding Scrapping Station
Compact stainless steel downdraft station for controlled animal bedding removal.
The TBJ BSS-1DD Downdraft Bedding Scrapping Station is a compact, single-grid solution designed to capture airborne dust generated during animal bedding removal. Engineered for laboratories and vivariums with limited space or lower throughput requirements, the BSS-1DD delivers effective dust containment while maintaining operator comfort and facility cleanliness.
Featuring a downdraft airflow design, dust and particulates are pulled downward through the scrapping grid, helping reduce airborne contamination in animal care environments. Constructed entirely of T304 stainless steel, the BSS-1DD offers long-term durability, corrosion resistance, and smooth, cleanable surfaces suitable for rigorous laboratory use.
Dust capture efficiency is optimized when paired with an appropriately sized exhaust system, making this station a reliable and scalable component of vivarium air quality control strategies.
