AllerGard NU-622 Dual Sided Animal Transfer Station

The NuAire NU-622 Animal Transfer Station offers dual-side access to fit diverse vivarium workflows. Laminar airflow maintains a clean environment for animals, while front and rear air barriers help reduce allergen exposure for staff. Ideal for flexible layouts, the NU-622 delivers protection, adaptability, and reliable performance.

Overview

The NuAire NU-622 Animal Transfer Station is designed for vivarium flexibility, offering front and rear access to accommodate a variety of room layouts and workflows. This dual-side design allows facilities to position the station for optimal space use while maintaining a clean, HEPA-filtered laminar airflow over the work zone to minimize cross-contamination and support animal welfare.

Front and rear air barriers draw both laboratory and work surface air into the grills at each opening, helping reduce allergen exposure for operators by directing particulates away from the breathing zone. The NU-622’s 16-inch ergonomic openings provide ample top access for transferring animals, adding bedding, food, water, and enrichment items while preserving as much airflow coverage as possible.

Engineered for daily vivarium demands, the NU-622 delivers quiet operation to reduce animal stress, segmented stainless-steel work surfaces for rapid cleaning, and mobility for flexible deployment. Built with NuAire’s ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 certified manufacturing standards and backed by decades of innovation, it combines adaptability, animal protection, and operator safety in one high-performance solution.

Less Height, Less Weight — Same Trusted Performance

This animal transfer station is engineered to fit today’s vivarium constraints without sacrificing protection. Its reduced minimum height of 77 5/8” (1972 mm) and lighter build (about 100 lbs / 45.4 kg less) make it easier to navigate tight doorways and lower ceilings during installation.

Mounted on a wheeled, motorized base stand, it can be moved into position and adjusted to the optimal working height for each technician, improving ergonomics and workflow efficiency.

With HEPA-filtered laminar airflow and dual air barrier protection, the station safeguards animal welfare and minimizes allergen exposure — now in a smaller, lighter, and more adaptable form. This means facilities gain the same robust protection and flexibility they expect from NuAire, with a design that fits seamlessly into space-limited vivariums.

Quieter Running with the Same Powerful Airflow

The familiar push-pull airflow dynamics vivariums expect are maintained, while a newly designed downflow diffuser optimizes airflow around the perimeter of the work surface.

An enhanced motor plenum above the diffuser reduces noise, ensuring animal protection through consistent airflow and greater operator comfort during daily cage-changing tasks.

A Taller Access and Better Ergonomics in a Smaller Profile

Despite its lighter footprint and lower profile, this generation enhances ergonomics with a 16” (406 mm) work access height and a slightly expanded work zone.

The segmented work surface can be easily removed for cleaning, while sloped airflow grills around the perimeter help prevent cages from blocking airflow slots, maintaining a clean environment for animals.

A Red Light Option for Animal Comfort

A dedicated red work zone light can be used in place of the standard white light, allowing technicians to perform cage-changing tasks without disturbing nearby animals.

This option supports nocturnal animal comfort, helping reduce stress during handling while maintaining workflow efficiency in the vivarium environment.
