Introduction
About this Manual
The SSCI Oxygen Therapy Door transforms your standard Regal
cage into an oxygen therapy chamber. The clear door features a
continuous-flow nebulizer with .25 in (.635 cm) inner diameter x
.062 in (.16 cm) thick tubing to deliver a regulated flow of
medicated, moist oxygen.
A thermometer/hygrometer mounted on the door monitors cage
temperature and humidity for optimal treatment. The clear
polycarbonate door allows you to view the animal at all times.
A detachable compartment on the outside holds the oxygen
nebulizer and ice to cool the oxygen if needed. The door mounts
onto the front of the cage in place of the regular door, and uses
standard hinges and latches to close securely. Rubber door seals on
all four sides of the door are open at the corners to uniformly
distribute oxygen and exhaust carbon dioxide.
Every attempt has been made to insure that the information in this
manual is correct and complete. SSCI, however, always welcomes
our customer’s suggestions for improvements to our products and
associated publications.

Care and Cleaning of
Stainless Steel
Owner’s Manual - Oxygen Therapy Door
Introduction
Cleaning and
Cleansers
Stainless steel is steel alloyed with chromium to make it highly
resistant to stain, rust and corrosion. Note: This does NOT
mean that stainless steel will never rust or corrode. Science has
not yet developed a steel which is completely stainless or
corrosion PROOF.
The type of stainless steel and finish selected by SSCI for the
Oxygen Therapy Door is the best available for the intended use.
The basic rule of thumb is to use the mildest cleaning procedure that
will do the job effectively. Always rinse thoroughly with clear water,
and dry completely. Frequent cleaning will prolong the service life of
stainless steel equipment and will help maintain a bright, pleasing
appearance.
Ordinary deposits of waste and fluids can usually be removed with
soap and water. More stubborn deposits or tightly adhering debris
may require harder scrubbing and possibly the use of commercial
cleaning products acceptable for use on metal surfaces. When using
any cleaning agent, rub in the direction of the polish lines or “grain”
of the metal. For high luster finishes, clean soft cloths or pads should
be used.
If especially rough cleaning is necessary, use “stainless steel” wool,
nylon or plastic scrubbers. Test these scrubbers in an inconspicuous
area first to be sure they do not mar or scratch the stainless steel
finish.
Minor scale build-up and some hard water spotting may be
removed by washing with vinegar, followed by a neutralizing rinse
with clear water and a thorough drying with a soft cloth. For heavy
deposits of scale, 5% oxalic acid (use warm), 5-15% sulfamic acid,
or 5-10% phosphoric acid may be used. Always follow with a
neutralizing rinse of clean water and a thorough drying.

Chapter 1 - General Information
Deodorizing Agents,
Disinfectants and
Sanitizers
The large selection of brands and combinations of chemicals
available for deodorizing, disinfecting and sanitizing is
staggering. Select one or more agents for use in your facility
only after weighing all the benefits claimed by each product.
Often this choice is made without adequate consideration of the
effects these agents may produce on equipment or furnishings.
CAUTION: Before selecting a chemical to employ in
your facility, review label statements regarding use
with metals (stainless steel). Always consult the
chemical supplier if there are any doubts.
Avoid prolonged use of chlorides (such as chlorine bleach),
bromides, iodides and thiocyanates on stainless steel surfaces as
these chemicals will cause pitting, corrosion and metal discoloration.
Allowing salty solutions to evaporate and dry on stainless steel may
also contribute to corrosive conditions.
In summary, select chemical deodorizers, disinfectants and/or
sanitizers only after weighing all possible benefits and known
adverse effects.
