Animal Room Monitoring – Independent, Validated,
Networked or Web based, CentronEMS (Environmental
Monitoring System) offers a monitoring system designed to meet
your critical AAALAC and GxP regulations. Monitor temperature,
humidity, light, air pressure and more in your Animal Holding
Rooms, Walk-in Cold Rooms, and Feed Storage in addition to
critical lab equipment. Control lighting and access as well.
A single Centron system can monitor a diverse facility with
multiple locations while it provides instant data access and
sophisticated analysis right from your desktop computer. Our
most powerful EMS to date, CentronSQL introduces more
than 30 new enhancements including: Advanced and Custom
reports utilizing Crystal Reports, SQL or Oracle platform, 50
simultaneous users per node, independent logging rates for
each input, new maximum logging rate of 1 minute, scalable
map and graphical input status reports.
Integrated Card Access – Control and monitor access to
your entire facility from your desktop computer. Eliminates the
need for separate alarm control panels by integrating all door
switches, window bugs and motion sensors. Expandable, the
system can handle up to 32,000 cards, 300 access groups,
1238 reader groups, 16 alarm zones, and 32 elevator control
groups. CCTV integration and a photo database enable you
to verify identity and “See Who Enters”. Integrated Perimeter
Security, Anti-Pass Back and other features provide total security
for individual rooms, corridors or entire facilities.

Triton Automated Watering Solutions – 25 years of
experience monitoring environmental conditions in laboratories
has given us tremendous insight into other areas of research
facilities. Working with our clients, we have designed our Triton
Automated Watering Solutions.
Automated Watering Solutions help make the vivarium a better
place for the animal residents and their caregivers. Triton
Automated Watering Solutions improve water quality, ensure a
constant supply, and reduce variances in the water supply that
could affect research results. Staff is relieved of the laborious task
of handling water bottles, which reduces the risk of ergonomic
injuries and allows them to focus more attention on the animals
themselves.
Our Automated Watering Solutions are custom designed to each
client’s specific needs. Our systems are available in High Velocity
Re-circulating or Auto-Flushing designs. Reverse Osmosis (RO),
Ultra-Violet (UV) Sterilization, Chlorination and water conditioning
are all available. Systems can be constructed to service a specific
species or with the flexibility needed to house a variety of species.
Our engineers carefully review each project to design the system
that best meets the current and future needs of your facility.

6. HOW IT WORKS – High Velocity Re-Circulating
A high volume pump sends water through a large capacity UV system and out to all of the animal room
corridors via a central feed pipe. This central feed pipe supplies clean water to single-stage Pressure Reducing
Panels located in corridors or anterooms. Flow Control valves allow for the adjustment of the rate of flow
through the room to the return line and maintain the desired pressure within the room piping.
• Easily scalable - perfect for facilities of any size
• Flexible - can accommodate a variety of species
• Eliminates costly flushing of expensive RO water
• Piping design eliminates dead legs - reducing bacteria and biofilm build-up

7. HOW IT WORKS – Auto Flushing
Dual-stage Pressure Reducing Panels equipped with a flush solenoid are combined with our output control capabilities
to provide automatic flushing. A second drain solenoid is installed at the end of the line. At a pre-scheduled time
each day, the system will open both solenoids, flushing all of the potentially stagnant or contaminated water out
of the system. Multiple flush schedules can be programmed. Separate regulators for flush pressure and drinking
pressure provide appropriate pressure throughout the system.
• Eliminates labor intensive manual processes
• Ensures consistent flushing at the same time and pressure each day
