The Cubicles are designed to isolate the subject from distracting ambient light, sound and laboratory activity.
Two models of this Isolation Cubicle are available, the H10-24 standard isolation model which has very high-density, monolithic rigid foam walls. The H10-24A with the same high density walls and an extra inner lining of three layer LAG decoupling foam. This foam gives the A-model superior sound attenuation for the most demanding stimulus presentation or vocal response recording acoustical studies. The 3-layer LAG coupling provides a foam layer between the outer wall and the center high-mass, flexible-sheet layer. The inner foam layer provides absorption qualities for sounds generated or reflected inside of the cubicle.
The cubicles are of sufficient size to hold a cage or hub with a full complement of stimulus-response modules and feeders.
They will hold the longest modules (feeders and retractable levers or a nest/retreat box) on both end walls or a running wheel on one end of a rat test cage. It will also hold an octagon hub with feeders and retractable levers.
The cubicle has two environment connection boards, ECBs, on the back wall for connecting the S-R modules and the Linc control cables.
There is an exhaust fan in the center of the rear wall. The fan is powered by 28 volts from the control interface.
