VCN2 Veterinary Compressor Nebulizer

Product Overview

The VCN2 is a compressor (jet) nebulizer for veterinary respiratory therapy. An oil-free lubricated piston pump drives the nebulizer cup at 60–130 kPa, producing a mist with a mass median diameter of 4 µm ± 25% that reaches the trachea, bronchi, and alveoli.

A maximum nebulization rate of 0.2 mL/min, residual volume of ≤ 1.0 mL, and ≤ 60 dB(A) operating noise suit in-clinic and ward aerosol therapy. Species-appropriate face masks and a grid cooling design support repeated treatment sessions throughout the day.

Key Features

• Fine aerosol: 4 µm ± 25% MMD for deposition in the lower respiratory tract
• Stable, continuous mist output at up to 0.2 mL/min for even dosing
• Oil-free lubricated piston pump — clean compressed air and extended pump service life
• Low noise: ≤ 60 dB(A) to limit patient stress during treatment
• Low residual volume: ≤ 1.0 mL of medication left in the cup
• Compatible with a range of nebulizable medications; no water added to the cup
• Animal face masks in skin-friendly, odor-free material that can be disinfected daily
• Grid cooling design for stable operation across repeated daily sessions

Technical Specifications

Clinical Applications

• Aerosol therapy for upper and lower respiratory tract disease in canine and feline patients
• Delivery of nebulized bronchodilators, mucolytics, and antimicrobials as prescribed by the clinician
• Airway humidification and supportive respiratory care for hospitalized patients
• Repeated scheduled nebulization sessions in the ward and isolation unit

Workflow & Operating Notes

• Fill the nebulizer cup with the prescribed medication; no water is added to the cup
• Connect the cup to the compressor with the air tube and fit the appropriate face mask
• Run continuously for the treatment session; the grid cooling design supports repeated sessions through the day
• Disinfect the face mask after each patient; the mask material tolerates daily disinfection
• Do not operate in the presence of flammable anesthetic gas mixtures

Why Choose the VCN2

• Workflow efficiency: compact 15 × 15 × 9 cm unit sets up in the consult room or ward with a single cup-and-mask connection
• Clinical accuracy: 4 µm MMD particles and stable output support consistent drug deposition in the lower airways
• Practice economics: ≤ 1.0 mL residual volume reduces medication waste, and the oil-free pump extends service life

Warranty & Support

Warranty terms for the main unit are confirmed at the time of order. Probes, cuffs, cables and other accessories follow standard wear-item terms.
